Murillo Santiago Costa dos Santos of BRASIL!

When I played we used to get free membership to David Lloyd in Bridgford. Is that still there? It wasn't for me though, it was full of pretentious pricks.
I took my Mum for a coffee on Central Avenue on Mothers Day before the Fulham game.

From Cafe Nero to TSB, it was loaded with those knobhead types that think it's fashionable to wear Fat Willy's hoodies in the cold with flip flops.

The Bilbrough blood in me was giving this to each and every one of them when they walked past!

Fat Willy's gear has always been naff and associated with total toss pots, nice to see nothing changes.

To be fair, I haven't seen him staying since the first 6 months of watching him. But he has never really come close to leaving.
I think in our position we accept some of the dangerous things he tries but the so called 'top clubs' wouldn't tolerate as much, they'd just want an out and out top defender, and not one that might give the opposition a chance every other game by trying something out the ordinary, it's that that might make other clubs nervy and stop them making the kind of offers Forest would be looking for.

I know nothing about what’s fashionable and nothing about Fat Willy’s, but seeing this does remind me that I used to be puzzled that in the 80s all Ford Escorts seemed to come with a Fat Willy’s Surf Shack sticker fitted as standard…

Probably twats that got the sticker free with the t-shirt, most of them have never been on beach.

All mums love Central Avenue. Something about the 1930s art deco atmosphere relaxes them. The co-op and the library, where mine did voluntary with the elederly, were her favourite places.
Mine were the Test Match and the Slipper....

I don’t think it’s down to his ability, it’s more to do with how much it will cost them. As an example last summer Huijsen & Guehi were banded around for about half what it would cost for Murillo due to their contract situations & there are only so many clubs that can afford Murillo.

Also, that is very nitpicky. He is clearly instructed to take risks, because he creates so much more than he gives away. If he was told to keep it simple he probably would, but that would be a waste of his talent.

I’ve mentioned it before on this very thread, but Murillo is absolutely box-office, entertainment wise, and when he barges forward on one of those runs, it’s going to get you out of your seat.

And that’s what I love about him.

Yeah it's the price tag 100%.

I've seen enough of Ibrahima Konate stumbling about like a drunken sailor this season, or Chelsea's clown show at the back to know that Murillo would walk into any big team he wants, with the probable exception of Arsenal.

The absolute fear in the opposition centre backs is a joy.

Come out and they leave space in behind, let him bring it forward and he'll twat a thunderbastard in and make them look silly.

I guess that’s only because of the way the Arsenal play, because they seem to have morphed back into a George Graham side, with their back-four charging out in unison with their arm raised, playing for offside.

Murillo would force them to completely change their defensive style, and I’m not sure Arteta could do that without his head exploding.

The big clubs who could afford him would want to train the risk taking out of him.
He would be best advised to stay with Forest.
(This argument also applies to MGW... stay at Forest Morgs!).

I have fond memories of the Slipper, around 1970.

If we do sell murillo in the summer, how about calvin bassey as a replacement ? Won't be cheap but he has pace and built like a tank. He's only 26 and even though he plays for nigeria , he's considered homegrown as he was in leicester academy during his youth.
