Would be two good signings for them.

A load of cash, a big gamble when they MIGHT simply be looking at play-offs. Hope it goes wrong, badly wrong.

Jordan Rhodes struggled to settle into the Middlesborugh team last year, so I think he will struggle at Derby

 

[Tarpon]

The Derby 'way' (again)

 

[Dick Swiveller]

So that would be Rhodes, Bent, Weimann, Wilson, Vydra and Blackman with Camara and Russell for backup as strikers?

 

[Driver8]

Perhaps Will Hughes is off then.

I'd rather Rhodes played than bent or vydra. Forest hardly going to sell
Lansbury to their rivals.

That's FFP pushed to the backburner for them then

They got 10 mil for Hendricks and reckon Fulham will pay them 9 mil for Martin

Not sure McClaren will want to sell Martin as he said he was surprised he had been loaned out.

Neither seem to be our missing piece of the puzzle but not good to see a strong side strengthen.

They are strong contenders for a playoff spot providing they can keep their squad happy with so many unused strikers

Note to Schteve and Mr Derby Way:
your defence is sh!te and you've got too many schtrikers

 

[Bakero]

More players is exactly what Derby need.

No choice, unfortunately.... It's a load of money but Martin suits the McClaren style and it works be great to have him back

 

[Shins]

I'd usually be hoping that we get a couple of players in like this. Now I don't.

It feels good that we can have a relaxed window and any business we do will be a complete bonus.

 

[LVGull]

Do Derby actually want to gain promotion this year or is it not their agenda again

 

[Dirk Lehmann's Python]

Poaching Forest's best player? Wow

They are strong contenders for automatic.

Lansbury's contract expires at the end of the season and he's not yet been offered a new one by them (they've put all discussions on hold until the 'takeover' goes through), so 5-6m might be too good an offer for them to turn down.

No, they have a small chance of automatic promotion. They have a strong chance of being in the playoffs.
