If he loses 2 stone, they'll have a player. I hope he does well, and we can sell him to them in the summer. He still lives in Leicester and it's pointless him being here as he won't be able to get fit driving 6 hour round trip every day.

Started on the bench and came on after 70 minutes, as Forest lost 2-0 at Fulham. Not much of a scouting report admittedly, but I only saw him once during the highlights clip on Channel 5. Be interesting to see how he goes under Karanka, who got a tune out of him when he had him at Boro.

He seemed to have slimmed down a bit from the summer. Maybe his attitude is more of a problem than his waistline. Either way, I'm still gutted he's gone. All fans want to see their team win - and I'm no different - but I also like to be entertained. He has the ability to take your breath away, demonstrated perfectly by that piece of skill against Norwich.
When you can name the bits of play he's done well, he's not done it enough. I think commuting from Leicester, his conviction and subsequent community service work, plus the fact he's not been a regular have all been a perfect storm in him gaining weight. He looked trim when he first signed, he's not now. We're not alone though, pretty much every club has a similar story with him, he presumably puts weight on very quickly and he has trouble shifting it.
Can anyone with access to ifollow Cardiff city get on the forest one? They have full highlights..could just watch the last 20 mins.
Might be an idea also to read their forum for opinions. They might have a job Wilson or humblegringo on there..we can get a decent scope of his performances then.
I used that as an example. Very few players can do stuff like that. Yes there are negatives, but he can do things most players in our league can't do.
I don't think you can. With the old iPlayer subscription you had access to every club using the platform (about 90% of the 92 league clubs) but with iFollow the subscription is club specific. A major backwards step. It was always interesting to watch pre match interviews at the clubs we were coming up against, and different highlight packages. All that has gone since the summer.
If his head was sorted too, I'd agree.
Quick sprint - knackered for rest of game. His cardio is his problem.
He's had numerous clubs the last few years, getting nice signing on fees at each. Hardly the sharpest tool in the box - see the way he left Bournemouth.
Right now, if Forest take him off our hands permanently, that'll be the best result for both - just not for Forest.
