Lewis O’brien

[jt64]

Yes they paid his basic wage.

How much did they pay him in goal bonus and appearance money?

 

[ancientblade]

It's an appalling stance from them really. His level is bottom half prem, top half championship. If they insist on only selling him to a club they won't be competing with, they're negatively impacting his career. It's situations like this that turn sour, if I was him I'd be kicking off.

it is and i think the way forest have dealt with players over the last 18 months its a big warning to players to be very careful if their thinking of signing for em

 

[LJBlade]

Forest also fucking owe us one. We helped them get promoted by giving them more tickets than we needed to. And then they allowed their fans on the pitch to assault our players. There should be no basis for animosity towards us on their part

If they want to fuck us around too much we should move on before the start of the season and sign Sam Field instead

We helped them get promoted because of how many tickets we gave them? I hope you’re taking the piss because if not, even for you Ricky, that’s pathetic

 

[Ricardo Mantelban]

Mentioned on sky transfers

 

[BrisBlade]

Anyone heard anything on this one? O'Brien's name crops up all the time and he seems an obvious one for us to look at, but for all that I haven't heard anything solid (or even semi solid) to say we're interested.

From the bits and pieces I've read, I think we want him, he wants to come and Forest want to sell him but for more than we can afford and ideally not to a rival.

If nobody else comes in for him by the end of the window, I would expect Forest to revisit their stance and for this one to start moving. If we haven't moved on by then.

I just hope he we don't use one of our two loan signings on him. They're precious spots that we need to fill with top quality.

I would be semi solid if we signed him.

 

[Blade58]

I think he could make a decent contribution to our season, especially as we can’t rely on Fleck to see us through

Love Flecky for his service and performance for us but what a waste of a wage he's going to be this season.

we may well use our 2 loan signings on tommy doyle and lewis obrien that would do for me looking like the lad from man utd coming in as a free agent only other 2 areas i think we could use the 2 loan spots are another striker and a keeper to challenge wes

 

[S6Blademan]

I would be signing him monday , if Fiorest dont want tosell to us then add another millikn on to it

The thought of ben osborn starting a premier league game in midfield is the stuff of nightmares

He should be playing for Burton Albion not the Blades

 

[FriethBlade]

Shows the mess we are in, we are desperate to sign a player who can't get anywhere near the team of a relegation rival

 

[Bladey_blade]

Means fuck all

 

[Bladesman]

If Forest could get their head out of their backside and let us buy him it would be good.

 

[FriethBlade]

Means fuck all

You might think so

 

[ancientblade]

obrien walks in to our midfield weve only got berge whos premier league class in there

 

[FriethBlade]

I know he does Ancient that's my point !

 

[Harrisblade]

Shows the mess we are in, we are desperate to sign a player who can't get anywhere near the team of a relegation rival

Why is that our fault?
Haven't Forest already refused us permission to loan him as we might be in a battle with them to avoid relegation?

 

[ancientblade]

I know he does Ancient that's my point !

after today anybody walks in to our side weve 1 decent midfielder and thats berge if only we would speculate a bit and bring souza doyle and obrien in we might have half a chance of staying in the premier league

Where did I say its our fault ?

If we had a decent striker or two

 

[NerdyBlade]

Forest want 10mil for him

 

[Bladesman]

Forest want 10mil for him

They will get 4 quid. Take it or leave it.

 

[S5Blade]

 

[8lade]

I'm sure we can come up with better than O'Brien, I hope United are just yanking Forest's chain over this; I'd rather buy Choudury for the rumoured 6 mill and supplement his wages with the remainder of the money.

 

[S6Blademan]

Shows the mess we are in, we are desperate to sign a player who can't get anywhere near the team of a relegation rival

By all accounts the forest fans rave about him and say he shpuld be in there squad

It not slight on him that he ended up in america its more to do with him not costing 20 mill and been english

 

[Tarqs]

10m for a player they dont even want lol

 

[CaptainMorgans]

£10m up front feels too much for him.

£7m would feel a fairer deal, could stick £3m of add-ons in if it helped get the deal over the line, appearance and survival based.
Otherwise, I'd probably look elsewhere.

*Having said this, it shouldn't be too much for a PL club. Particularly a bit of a desperate one.
The Prince needs to pull his finger out.

i agree 7m at most with 3m add ons if we stay up they wont get 10m up front for him know a lot of posters on here dont rate him but i do and after today weve got to get 3 more in for midfield we cant be going with osborn and slimane there abdullah needs to start speculating or theres only one way were going

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

There's basically a 4 million relegation rival tax then

Because there's zero to justify a value increase
