CB Jamaal Lascelles

Wed Jul 30, 2014 10:55 am

Has anyone else seen this kid play? Only 20 and absolutely fantastic - he Is exactly what we need at this stage as he has the potential to become a top premier league player imo - the type of player we should be targeting who can make the step up!

Has pace to burn
Accurate long range passes
Ariel presence
Physical

He is essentially a younger, much better version of Turner!

With Hull getting Harry McGuire, I think we missed a trick there, so Jamaal Lascelles has to be on Ole's list!
I think if we could sort out a Cash + player deal, it would be great business!

Does anyone else rate him? Or is there any other CB's you would like to see us get? :ayatollah:

I can't see forest wanting to sell to a fellow championship club. But I agree would be a great addition.

If we're gonna go all out for Fonte, I'd pay the same for Lascelles, destined for greatness

I'd rather us sign Fonte over Lascelles.
Whilst he's a great talent, Caulker was too remember...

We need an experienced cb who knows how to dig in and fight for promotion and against relegation if we go back up. Fonte is the best man for us in this case. If we sign Fonte now and Lascelles later then that's fine.

Turned down a £4.5m bid from QPR for him last month. Arsenal also watching him apparently.
