Forest smokes Chesterfield in a friendly yesterday 3-0. Carlos Miguel was Forest's keeper. Oddly Murillo came on, despite suggestions he was gone. He could still move, but I think playing friendlies means they don't care about his deal in terms of balancing the books. Must feel like the other moves have done that for them. (Sels and Turner still on post Euro/Copa rest. Not on team sheet.)
He was also a half-time sub in their last pre-season match vs. Sunderland: Our XI for the second half 📋Watch LIVE on Forest TV 📺— Nottingham Forest (@NFFC) July 19, 2024 Murillo started that one. Sels just arrived in camp on Sunday and is presumably getting back up to speed.
Turner shutout half, replaced by Sels at the break, and Sels conceded. Turner not mentioned in a summary I saw.
He also did not concede in the half he played vs Sunderland BUT, the goal Sunderland scored in the first half was a PK. All that said, he's currently Clean Sheet Matty
1817867851597824247 is not a valid tweet id lmao... "just one more keeper bro, and we'll be out of the relegation battles. just one more bro, I swear its all we'll need" Also... what if they try to swap Turner as part of this deal???
Forest may be interested in Ramsdale, but I seriously doubt that Ramsdale is interested in them. He's an EL-CL standard keeper who's been relegated, somewhat surprisingly, to the bench at a CL side. Why should he join a bottom-feeder? He can do a hell of a lot better than Forest.
Well there is precedence. CL starter/winner and arguably better keeper Keylor Navas did it while he was behind Donnarumma. Edit. Not saying that he should or wouldn't have better options, just that it isn't crazy. IMO
True, but Navas was 35 when he took that loan season. Retirement was/is looming. Ramsdale is 26. He's got 10 years ahead of him and this is a full transfer rather than a loan.
Agreed and I would say it's about 0.1% chance of happening (still seems high). Just wanted to point out Navas doing it before.
A Bundesliga club is pushing to sign Matt Turner on loan, but discussions with Nottingham Forest haven’t been the easiest. Turner is hopeful for a move to the Bundesliga.[🌕: @tombogert - VIA: @GolazoAmerica] pic.twitter.com/AuWilBZKFm— USMNT Otaku 🇺🇸 (@USMNTOtaku) August 5, 2024 Hopefully it comes to fruition. He badly needs a change of scenery and chance to start at the BL level would be great.
Well, of course they're struggling to negotiate with Forest, no one values keepers more than Nottingham Forest!
Would be very rock and roll if Turner went on loan to St. Pauli [I have no idea if that's the club interested]... I'd have to tune in for that.
I learned about this sketch from this forum! https://www.bigsoccer.com/threads/ricardo-pepi-at-psv-eindhoven.2116061/page-70#post-41221427
I love Lucy reruns in college... there may or may not have been burning rope involved, but somehow we found it hilarious.
I'm racking my brain to think of a BL team where he would be an upgrade. Mainz, Augsburg maybe Freiburg. Otherwise he may just spend his time watching just like at Forest.
