Transfer News Transfer Window Summer 21

What has Forde done to be kept on ? He would be fairly high up on my list of those to let go.

I’m surprised Forde would be a new contract & Lee not bothered. Forde is our 5th/6th choice central midfielder, 2nd/3rd choice right back, 4th/5th choice right winger. Lee has been a pretty nailed on starter & even if we improved in attacking personnel would be pushing that new player for a place.

I like Forde, but struggle to see much justification for keeping a player who is at least 2 spots from the starting 11 in every position he plays

Forde is a very good utility player, who can do a good job covering multiple positions. And his dead ball quality is unrivalled.

Although he has contributed since he's been here, I find Lee a little scatty and slow, and I haven't really agreed with his constant inclusion in the starting lineup to be honest, and in hindsight, feel we would've faired better in the playoffs playing Gorrin in the holding midfield role, Brannagan and Henry in front of him, and Sykes, Agyei or Shodipo on the right, instead of Lee.

Lee has his uses though, and would be a good player to have in the squad, and if he comes back on a free transfer, I'd be happy, but I think we should save money in our budget to aim for better.

Forde is a good player

A dead ball specialist and a good passer 2nd choice RB 3rd choice midfielder and right winger that’s anybody’s guess

Won't be second choice rb next season, nor 3rd choice in the midfield. A good player but not one to take us to the next level.

It depends on how much the board are going to back KR if there is a consortium who are interested in sorting a ground for the I’s would they’re want a team of nearly or a team threat will be.

Nicky Cadden just scored forest green's third from a freekick, a wicked delivery that went straight in without a touch. Nearly signed him in January.

Also heavily involved in talks with Nathan Holland with Robinson saying that some deals were not for now. Wouldn't be surprised to see some of those mentioned in January being on our radar in the summer.

 

[Mintygreen]

It would be good to sign players on a permanent deal cadden looks half decent and with Ford probably off we could use a dead ball taker

 

[horseman]

Not sure how fans think we need 5/6 players or 10 in 1 case and then expect business done early

if only it was that simple eh

Might also be worth keeping in mind that there are a number of bigger clubs whose name will attract players that we may be after

 

[Shosho]

Was told in Jan pretty reliably Cadden was signed...assumed it was to come in then, however could easily be a pre-contract thing for us in the summer.

Would be ideal for the left wing back role - although there appears to be a few OOC LBs.

5 loaness returning
5 out of contract.

10 players to replace even without others like osie-yaw, Hanson, clare being maybe loaned out

Well if he hasn't then it has probably got easier to sign him with Forest Green losing.

Forde is versatile. He’s not let the side down at all this season and was light years more effective than Hanson on Friday. Well worth another deal.

Cadden is out of contract this summer anyways so he will be a free.
So is Jamille Matt and that right back Jayden Richardson that I was impressed with second half, had pace to burn.

No thanks on Jamille Matt. Don't know anything on Richardson. If they'd come up Cadden may have re-signed for them. This is of course if we are still after him.

With Kyran Lofthouse gaining great experience this season surely he will be a right sided option as well . Think Forde is decent but don't see much point in him staying tbh

Jamille Matt is exactly the sort of player we need to give Taylor competition in the one up front role, he wins so many headers and holds the ball up and also puts a shift in.

Jamille Matt is at best a L2 forward.

 

[captainox]

Forde created the second most amount of chances for us after Henry with 56 in 40 games, only starting 21 of those.
Was also third in the assists charts behind Henry and Ruffels. His set piece delivery is fantastic but I'm not sure where his best position is. He was a winger at Rotherham, but has never really been played their for us, doesn't appear to have the pace.
