InglewoodJack Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 He looked really solid in the last game he played. I’m starting to wonder if Laryea is their insurance policy, IE they can only spend so much especially considering there’s a good chance they’re relegated right back down, so instead of spending on a Laryea replacement, maybe let’s give him an opportunity and if he doesn’t embarrass himself, he’s a better bench option than whoever they could purchase to replace him. johnyb and Obinna 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obinna Posted July 21, 2022 Share Posted July 21, 2022 1 hour ago, El Diego said: Looking into it a bit further, it seems Biancone is more of a CB (especially in the back 3 that Forest play as an RCB) than a RWB. I'm starting to think that unless a new guy comes in that perhaps Richie doesn't get sent out on loan. This is my thought at the moment as well. I don't know much about Biancone, but I gathered he wasn't a true RWB based on this: 18 hours ago, Obinna said: The post from 6 hours ago, the most recent post in the thread, was questioning whether they can afford to let Laryea go on loan until RWB depth was added, unless Biancone is considered backup. NFFC Squad 2022/23 (coyrforestforum.co.uk) But now that you've identified he's more of a CB, it makes sense that poster is questioning whether Biancone can be considered a back up. If not (which seems likely) Laryea may stay (unless someone else comes in). El Diego 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect you are right. And knowing what Richie can do, I think he'd prove to be a solid bench option at the EPL level. Hopefully he gets the chance to show that.

If not (which seems likely) Laryea may stay (unless someone else comes in). It's possible that a guy like Biancone is viewed as a progressive CB and defensive RWB -- a guy you'd use in a RWB position against a certain opponent or when defending a lead. But just from what I've read, I don't think he's a direct back up to Williams. Obinna 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure Nottingham has to employ a little bit of Moneyball to maximize their team vs expenditures especially in their first top flight season, so either you drop like £8M on a reserve player or you just go with the guy you already have who is a top 5-6 (I think?) player on a World Cup roster. I mean, those are the kinds of gems I feel lower budget teams need to hit on. Not to mention if they do get relegated, they have an excellent starting option for next season, assuming they’d lose a ton of players. johnyb 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did I read Lingard is making over 200,000 a week? That is outrageous for a club like NF, and I think a bit risky too.

I'd like Forest in normal circumstances, for the tradition, but if they are going to be a bunch of wankers in EPL (including no Laryea minutes, of course), then back to Championship with them and move on.

An Observer Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 I am pleased he is getting a chance in preseason. It seemed only about a week ago that he was going to be frozen out. So best case scenario, he sticks with them for the start of the year. Worse case is he has shown he is not out of place at this level and that should help with a loan move before the season starts.

prairiecanuck Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 49 minutes ago, scullion44 said: Laryea on at left back I find this interesting as it's the first time he's been used on the left side. He had one bad giveaway, but it didn't result in anything. He also had one nice little dribble in the attacking end that resulted in his team mate getting a cross in. I think the fact that he was deployed on the left side is a sign the team may actually be considering keeping him. I watched a good portion of this game. Forest paid a decent amount for Williams. I don't see it. He lacks pace and strength and had more than a couple giveaways for a guy that relies on technical ability.
