RE: Nelson Oliveira - Alf - 22-08-2018
Goos shout, think he's be an ideal addition to the side, especially as we seem to revert to hoof when under pressure at the mo.
RE: Nelson Oliveira - the jock - 22-08-2018
I actually think our system would suit oliveira more than grabban. hes big and strong, plus I really think we could get him on a bargain.
RE: Nelson Oliveira - Paplane - 22-08-2018
Think we just need to give Grabban some space.
Wasn't at Wigan but thought his other 2 games were fine. He was feeding of scraps really and still contributed overall to the team with his hold up play.
Having said that, I'd love to see Oliviera back. He's quality for sure too.
RE: Nelson Oliveira - Tom Pipe - 22-08-2018
Would Nelson come here to play second fiddle to Grabban? I thought the reason he kicked off at Norwich was due to not being first choice?

Agreed Pap, Grabban just needs a goal, I believe it's that simple.
I thought Oliviera was class when he was here before and I was disappointed when he left us.
I'd welcome him back with open arms.

My one doubt about Nelson was his predeliction to go it alone. Could AK drum the team ethic into him?
RE: Nelson Oliveira - BadDog - 22-08-2018
I dont just slate players if you read my posts, but Grabbans effort at Wigan was an insult.
For a player on such wages and big fee, he didn't jump for a header once all game, all the supporters around me felt the same and we discussed it traveling back on the coach.
The guy literally played like he did not give a toss and it really got to me.
I can accept Murphy limitations, I can't accept no effort and believe me that's what it was.

Agreed.
I think Grabban's a top signing and will come good. But he'll only come good when we pplay the right way against the right teams.
Currently we're only doing that in bits, and I genuinely can't beleive we've spent 25m and are stuck with the attribute-threadbare frontline we have.
For all the hype & hoo-ah around the club, we've got a big glaring hole up front, and could really do with a target man. Especially in a side which seems to revert to hoofball so often when pressured.

Forest have to play to Grabban's or Bre's strengths. Any striker will be poor if he doesn't get service.
Forest's Portuguese trio looked spellbinding pre-season...but life in the Championship is very different. ...and if they aren't playing and providing that nullifies a big swathe of Forest's Summer 'attacking' recruitment. But if they click in the Championship...the opposition should beware.
Luckily Cash, Lolley and Soudani are showing signs of what you need in the Championship. Energy. Directness. Robustness.

Nelson not even on the bench tonight
RE: Nelson Oliveira - Sniffer Dog (Admin) - 02-12-2018
Olympiakos want to sign Oliviera in January for 2.5m.
