Nottingham Forest fans on keeping, renting or selling: “Renting out McAtee” and division over Ndoye
Nottingham Forest fans outline their ideal keep/loan/sell list for the summer. Central: James McAtee needs to get minutes on loan, Dan Ndoye draws mixed reactions, while names such as Jair Cunha, Bakwa, Awoniyi and Gibbs-White are often mentioned to keep. There are further proposals to rent out players such as Kalimuendo, Cuiabano and Zach Abbott and to sell Morato, Hudson-Odoi or Anderson.
Nottingham Forest supporters have had their say en masse on who the club should keep, rent or sell this summer. One line is clear in the responses: James McAtee is best rented out to play weekly and regain his confidence. A move to a newly promoted club, a top team in the Championship or even an overseas option is mentioned.
Opinions differ around Dan Ndoye. Some fans believe that despite a difficult first year, he has enough potential to break through at a more stable Forest. Others want to sell him because he has not made any progress, while he may perform better in other European competitions.
A few names keep recurring on the 'keep' lists. Jair Cunha is considered a talent who can grow in a backline that includes Murillo (and in variants also Milenkovic). Bakwa, after a difficult debut season, is given the benefit of the doubt by several fans. Awoniyi has been praised for his importance since his arrival, with Gibbs-White even hailed by some as essential to Forest's attack.
In addition to McAtee, fans also put youngsters such as Zach Abbott and Cuiabano on the 'rental' pile, preferably for experience in France or Germany, for example. Reactions are divided about Arnaud Kalimuendo: one sees him not yet ready for the highest English levels and calls for a temporary move, the other wants to keep him because of his speed and goal-orientedness - also referring to his period in Frankfurt - and thinks he can deliver in a two-striker system. For the goalkeeper position, there is a call to bring in a younger, but experienced duplicate behind Sels; Doubts have been expressed about John Victor, while comments have also referenced previously departed options such as Gunn and Ortega.
The 'sell' suggestions include Morato (too slow or not suitable for England's pace), and in a controversial note Callum Hudson-Odoi due to injury proneness and competition from Bakwa and Hutchinson. In addition, Anderson is mentioned as a possible outgoing transfer: some fans consider a large amount realistic and want to reinvest the proceeds in several targeted reinforcements.
In summary: Forest's supporters see a summer full of decisions to be made. The common thread is clear: rent out McAtee for playing minutes, let talents like Cunha mature, let doubters compete or temporarily store them elsewhere, and only sell when the price and the sporting picture are right.
