According to Cadette this one is a done deal.

This one is very much squad cover I feel.
 
Played for Forest in their friendly this evening. Slightly strange if it’s a done deal.

Hopeful he will have an impact if he does join - he was their player of the season in 17/18 so must have something about him.
 
I looked on Utube, has scored a number of very good goals, quick feet and skill full and also young
Played for England youth at all levels up to U 20
 
Genuine question because I know cack all about him, but if he is not good enough for Forest why do we want him?

Cheers and UTB

Think he’s suffered as part of Forest’s recent unstable and ‘go foreign’ regime.

He’s also in last year of his contract.

In addition he wouldn’t be the first player deemed not good enough by another club and those are now premier league players.
 

From what ive seen of him he's a decent player. Can play left wing and left wingback, lots of pace, quick with his feet and can put in a decent cross with his left foot..... so cover for Enda basically.

The folks in my Nottingham think he's a worthwhile signing if we get him.
 
He's a very good technical player with plenty of time to really push his game on to the highest level.

If we can get him for not much more than £3m due to circumstances i.e. last year if contract, and managerial merry go round at the Trees, then we have potentially got ourselves a real bargain.

Think this one will happen as i think the lad wants out and wants to come to us. And wouldnt he?

So you own Nottingham now then? 😉

Bet you bought it for ten bob and a conker...and then you've been robbed. Nottingham is a shit hole. There's a reason Robin Hood only used to make flying visits in and out of there as it was a shithole then too.

What a weird post
 
seems to be a theme emerging... my pal who’s forest says he’s a great player, rates him really highly... this has cw written all over this, takes those under-appreciated talents from across EFL, and shows them 1st team football and squeezes every bit from them.

I know this is a big statement, but i really do think this signing could catch us off guard as one of the best pieces of business in the window to be honest.

Cant say I've seen enough of him to have a real feel for him, but I do expect one of our less expectant signings to make us sit back and go damn CW did it again. Weather its Osborn or Morisson or an other I guess time will tell but Im sure one of them will be far more than we think they will be right now.
 
On their pre season tour today in Greece. Gets off the bus and a fan says 'Ben still here then?' and Osborn replies 'looks like it'

Course sure he could fly back to the UK tomorrow but seems odd for him to be still there if a deal has been done as Shield indicates. So not sure this deal is happening yet.

 
He was player of the season year before so he obviously had ability and is coming to supplement the squad for a reasonable price.

People now are like signings have to be big money.

Egan was player of the year at Brentford and he was 3/4million. This is the exact same!

Forrest fans saying we have better.

By that tone he's saying wish I wasn't still here, hurry up Wilder.
 
Amusing reading the Forest forums. Fuck, they really hate us 🤣

Discussion on Osborn seems very very split. Certainly reminds me of the Fleck transfer, which is useful as he's broadly in the same position...

Excellent.

Unlike our feathered dimwits across the city, i much prefer that we aren't liked by rival clubs and are hated by their fans. It means we have upset the poor lambs in the past and pissed on their self entitled chips.

It isnt a popularity contest, its professional sport with all its competitiveness. Its one of the reasons why i love United so much. They often don't conform to regulations. Mind you Wendy don't either when it comes to FFP but that's another matter.
