Neco Shay Williams of WALES

Master Yates

If we stay up then i'm sure he'll stay no matter what.

He'll still have 3 years left on his contract when the season finishes so even if the worst happens, i can't see him going for anything less than what EM thinks he's worth and i'd guess he'd value him at around the £30m mark absolute minimum.
Having seen what we do with 30m, I'd rather keep Neco thanks.

£30m would be a bargain these days for a guaranteed quality PL fullback.
If Anderson goes for big money, there'll be no pressure to sell anyone else. Start the bidding at £50m I reckon.

I can’t quite believe that this thread has not yet been bumped. 🥰

What a guy!

Over the last few seasons, we’ve watched Neco become one of our strongest, most important, most dedicated, most committed and most incredibly gifted players.

And, at still only 24 years of age I’m sure he’s still got his best to come.

I did some fag packet estimations of our players on here a few weeks ago and had Neco down as £25M too although I'd gone on the conservative side. At a push we might get £30M for him.

Full backs don't tend to go for much more than that and the ones that do are more of a world class wing back.

Kerkez went for £40m and Williams is the better player and home grown.

Liverpool could use a decent full back too so I wouldn't be surprised if they were interested for big money.

An observation from his post-match interview with Colin Fray - "...the gaffer has told me to shoot from outside the box more"

Well done all parties :)

I'm sure the Scousers only bought Kerkez so that the locals could properly get their whiny accent round his name - "key air key ezz"

I forgot about Kerkez although the overall average market cost is pretty low for full backs low in comparison to other positions. I agree that Williams is much better than Kerkez too.

Brilliant today at both ends of the pitch. If we survive this season, it will be more down to him than anyone else. If we had another two players with his drive we would be nowhere near the relegation zone.
He was a brilliant signing for Forest when we returned to the Premier League.

I remember some didn’t rate him at first but I always thought he was going to be a star.

Went past 150 appearances in the Garibaldi as well recently.. Even more deserved.
That is the best bit about being a PL club, you keep hold of good players and rack up so many appearances, so many of our squad have 100-150 apps now. Dominguez also played his 100th game today.

You would be lucky if somebody reached 100 in the Championship. And if it happened, the chances are was because nobody wanted them anyway.

I was stunned to hear Colin Fray talking with Neco earlier and mention that this was the first time he's won a man of the match award.

Sangare is a very worthy runner up for player of the season but it's Neco's all day long.

Its Necos birthday tomorrow as well, so, a double celebration.

His disallowed goal looks well onside.
That's because it was, and it was pure incompetence that it was flagged offside when the established protocol is to let the passage of play end before flagging (not something I agree with, btw, but that is the protocol)

If it were Arsenal or Man City there would be an article on BBC Sport right now highlighting it but because it's little old Forest we'll hear nothing more about it and under carpet it will be brushed
