Michy Batshuayi - £5m offer rejected… 15:43 - Jan 27 with 19158 viewsKieran_Knows

… only seems to be reported in Turkey however, so no doubt we’re not even interested in him.

He was highly rated until he joined the Chelsea circus,where he was a perennial substitute, I recall him scoring some important goals in Europe off the bench for them? Certainly a player who shouldn't be judged on his lack of game time at Chelsea IMO


He seems to have hit it off at certain clubs and found it difficult at others

Watching his Fenerbahce highlights, he does look like he'd suit us

Alcohol is the answer but I can't remember the question!

Chelsea fans who i know refer to him as 'Bat sh*t' and that refers to his ability not just his name.

189 club goals.

27 international goals.

I know it didn't quite work out at Chelsea, but we could do a lot worse.


If just his goals were mentioned, then a fee of £5.5/6m I think we’d all be excited.

Don’t know too much about him, but sounds as though he’d push both Hirst and Delap

Worth a look. I mean, I hope we are actually looking.

Going into February without adding in the striker area will make me very very nervous.

Didn't do a lot in the Prem though did he and he's not getting any younger.

Feels a little bit desperate to me, if true.


Is it not fair to say that in the current market, we are desperate?

£5m - at Prem level that is worth a punt.

Though I doubt that would be the stubbling block, which would be wages.

An upgrade on AAH and arguably Hirst.

It would be a signing purely to attempt to keep us up.

My final observation - given the derth of options, this might well be one of the better ones.


Yes. Would instantly become our highest earner by a margin. Not a deal the club would do, unless you can loan him.

Why though? Genuine question. Assuming just thinking a better fit for link up play and a couple of years younger?

I wouldn't because I think we need a genuine goalscorer as an option off the bench and that's never been a strong part of Origi's game though he did score some important ones for Liverpool to make him a cult figure. Seen him a couple of times for Liverpool live and massively underwhelming in that small sample size. Not for me. 0 goals in 20 for Forest. Not sure he has played all season. Not what we need

I think he is some kind of bomb squad at A.C. Milan, whilst earning a few hundred thousand a week.

I think he’s a more suitable bench option and foil for Delap, to help him and Hirst through the season.

He’s often been a substitute throughout his latter career. He provides the physical profile required, as well as a better PL pedigree.

Would imagine it would be a simple deal to do, 6 month loan with % wage covered, and reassess in the summer.

I'm not sure, its slim pickings. I'm wondering if we might not recruit at all tbh. IF it were a profile like MB I would rather it was a loan deal. Signing him for £5m and those wages when we're potentially 3 months from relegation feels a little desperate IMO. I think we either go perm on a different profile who can lead us post Delap, or temporary on a shorter term option like that.


We ARE a little desperate!

Trust the process. Trust Phil.

It means we are waiting for one of 2 statements:

I've heard there is nothing in this - all hopes are immediately crushed

There might be something in this - we all get really excited until he fails a medical on transfer deadline day

Or perhaps that this is a random link from Turkey and no credible source in the UK making it a non story

You're not considering the possibility that Phil had a dodgy curry last night and the reason for his lack of comment is he's otherwise engaged.
