I'm hoping the penny might've dropped regarding signing "big name players" solely for their name (ignoring how they fit into the team, whether they're still motivated to give 100%, how their body is holding up etc.) given his quotes which supposedly appear in Greek media today, because it definitely applies at Forest too, less of the Arters, Lingards, Woods and Shelveys in futute, more "players with speed and a thirst to play" please!
Here's a rough translation:
"Vangelis Marinakis takes it upon himself and does not intend to bring back to the team a big name who will not have the motivation to overcome with Olympiakos! "The new recipe - No more Marcelo, James and Vrsaliko types - Lowering the average age of football players - Olympiakos turn to transfers for the 2023-24 season, they will be players with speed (Rodiney) and a thirst to play (Huang) ", says the sports newspaper's front page report."
