Terrible news about Bradshaw, but I don’t think Lyle Taylor is the answer. He‘s not been in the Forest side much, as I don’t think Cooper rates him. Having said that, I doubt Forest would let Taylor go for nothing. If they can recoup some of their money for him, they will.
If Cooper values Taylor at, say, £500,000, and we want £2M for Jed, you just know the ugly one will use his player in a deal where they get Jed for £1.5M, and we effectively get Taylor for nothing (but in reality we would have lost £500,000 on the deal). We then end up with a player that isn’t a prolific goal scorer and has commitment and work rate issues! I can just see us trying to off load him to another club, at the end of the 2022/2023 season!
Is it worth losing £500,000, just to send the Spotters into meltdown?
Possibly…..
