He was one of the best lb's in the league in the 13/14 seson.

Left back has been a weak spot for us for a while now, highlighted in the inconsistency to choose between Forsyth and Olson last season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walsall_Ram Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Let's not forget that Fozzy had hardly any game time as a defender when he came into the club too. Think he's done well for us, scapegoat at times, and we've had a few. Time to move on though, just like a few others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutly - especially Thorne. He was the standout defensive midfielder in the division one year. There’s a big part of me that thinks he’ll get back to his best one day.

Sexydadbod Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Well he was the joint best left back in the league last year along with Douglas.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robglosta Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 We've had our money back ten times over from Foz and they'd be getting a very experienced defender. Not sure it'll reduce the fee by more than 500k though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperDerbySuperRams Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Forsyth was great in 13/14. But last year some of his performances weren’t good enough. He shouldn’t be anymore than back up this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Day Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 I just hope Bristol City don't come on this site looking for a reference before considering employing Forsyth, then again they did sign Weimann who earned them a point yesterday, so maybe they might just ignore us.....hopefully.

I think Forsyth is great and last year he had an almost telepathic understanding with Weimann when they played together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BramcoteRam84 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 So that’s £5.5m + Forsyth then!! Be amazed if he’s worth more than £500k right now. The Forsyth pre-injury id be disappointed with anything less than £2.5 - £3m. If he’s had a mind coach to try and get over protecting his knee we would have a top player again and probably wouldn’t want to sell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forsyth is a great player, world class who could walk into any top 4 premier league team. That should do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Topram Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Fozzy isn’t the worst player, been a decent servant at Derby. 2 bad injuries really haven’t helped him! Obviously It would be a good deal but he’s getting some stick he doesn’t deserve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCFC1388 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 I think fans are undervaluing Forsyth on here. He is under 30, signed a new deal less than a year ago and has 2 years left on it. Yes as fans we may not rate him that highly but as a club id say we should be valuing him at 1m at least which imo would be good business for both teams. 3m + Forysth with 2m in potential addons Thats a cracking deal for Bristol City for someone in the last year of their deal, wont need to look for a replacement Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always feels like players either need to hang up their boots and try a career change, or they are going are going to the top and will play for England one day, never seems to be any balanced middle ground and understanding that we are a Championship side. Players have their flaws and will make mistakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
