I thought Lolley played for the Toffees ?
I thought Lolley played for the Toffees ?
Browsing the Nottingham Forrest forum for reactions, itās a mixed bag of relief and sadness that heās leaving.
A good player a couple of years ago, but due to injury concerns has fallen out of favour and seems like theyāre happy for him to be moved on.
Sounds like a great guy too
Yes. And would work well if we signed Patoā¦
LeFondre-Pato-Lolley
CaceresāYazbekāBrattan
Caballo-Wilko-Donk-Grant
Redmayne
Weād still be two top quality (marquees/ designated players) players short, though . We definitely need a centre-half. But I reckon you could give Yaz the chance to be the starting 6 and depending how that pans out bring someone in in January.
CB has to be a priority in that line up⦠am aging Wilko and donk has carnage written all over it
Yeah, looking at it - Lilley would also let us play Burgess in the middle, meaning youāve a few more options for midfield combinations.
You could play:
Caceres/ BurgessāāāBurgess/Brattan/Retre
āāāāāYazbek/Brattan/Retre
Itās reasonable depth if Brattan is good to go.
Would be an interesting signing, targeting mid-late 20s from the championship is what Iād like us to do more of
If we signed Pato Iād have Alfie on the bench. I really donāt think heās suited to playing as a wide forward/winger.
Iād go with a front 3 of Segecic, Pato & Lolley
I reckon he can do it.
Pretty clear seniority:
ALF/SegecicāPato/WoodāLolley/Kucharski
Those kids should still see quite significant game time.
I hope he hasnāt gone off the boil.
Wouldnāt you play Pato as the wide player? Mentor to Segecic with Alfie and Wood through the middle and Lolley and burgess on the left?
Hopefully Lolley wonāt roll his eyes every time Alfie fucks up
Yeah thatās what I would assume as well, Pato can play across the whole front three canāt he?
I also wonder if this might be instead of the Pato signing.
Iād have him central.
Might be. But theyre not mutually exclusive.
Pato is a marquee that would get APL funding.
Lolley more likely a designated player.
Is he? I assume he doesnāt have the name recognition for that. Definitely agree heād be on marquee wages though
He totally does. Itās fucking Alexandre Pato.
Bigger than Nani, surely.
Pato is bigger than Nani globally for sure, but Iād say because most Australians are closer to the EPL and Nani played for ManU, Nani is probably a bigger draw card in Aus.
Pretty close though.
If Victory get money for signing Nani, we fuckin get money for signing Pato, thatās all Iām saying.
The important details from his wiki
Lolley also takes a keen interest in politics, and would often use his now deleted twitter account to discuss current affairs. He has supported increasing rates of income tax for high earners.[23]
Lolley is also a dog lover. He visited the Soi Dog Foundation in Thailand in June 2019, and also has his own black labrador named Bear.[24]
Also played 60 mins against Liverpool in the cup in March so thatās good commentator content
