I'm curious to why Gio turned down going to Marseille
Should’ve taken the fiorentina deal
Can we please popularize "Spaghetti Weston" for McKennie's nickname? Hit's on the hilarious way he torments Italians about food and is generally brilliant.
Don’t we think the intensity and the speed of the EPL will help raise Gio’s floor, developmentally? Especially getting defensive experience in the midfield. I think that will help him grow in the areas where he needs the most growth
Don't worry, be happy now
The only problem is having to watch Nottingham Forest. Seems like Americans cant crack top 16 teams (at least for long term); Dest, Pulisic, Adams, Mckennie are all downgrading from their level as teens
Maybe they’ll go back to the 3-5-2 and have both Gio and Gibbs-White start together. G-W played as a second striker in that formation.
His name is Nuno Holy Spirit
I used to think loans like this were low risk and potentially high reward until Leeds’ supporters really turned on McKennie—feels like his reputation in England was really damaged regardless of his current form. On the other hand, NF supporters seem much more forgiving, so maybe the risk to Gio’s reputation is low.
Giooooooooooo Reyyyyyynaaaa
I was on some Nottingham blogs this morning. They seem to think he will start on the wing. I hope so because being a backup 10 at forest is the same as being a backup 10 at Dortmond.
The real conspiracy theory would be… Did Mendes secretly tank moves to clubs where he didn't have a relationship? It is a little funny that the one move that goes through for Gio is where Mendes would double-benefit…
He should have gone to the Itálian league eor lá liga. EPL is too rough he will get hurt.
Anyone watching the Asian Cup? 2 of the quarter-final matches pit the 4 best Asian teams vs each other. Australia vs South Korea and Iran vs Japan.
Who blew up a frickin hospital? Thats insane! Thats like some Muslim shit to do
Im scared He gonna get hurt. Dude is charmin ultra soft, pls just stay healthy and GTFO ASAP
Nuno Espirito Santo, literally means Monk Holy Ghost (Holy Spirit). Worst name ever
Nice that he got a move, but would have preferred he didn't got to the worst of the big leagues.
That first goal against Arsenal was super weak. Turner has not been good but their defense hasn’t helped him at all either.
Luton Town is actually playing good. Just put 3 or 4 in the back of the net vs Brighton. NF just plays zero defense.. probably will get relegated tbh.
was thinking he would excel in seria a or la liga but whatever maybe he will prove us all wrong and that he’s not made of glass?
oof, forest eh… that's embarrassing
Forest better get more points or they going down for sure. Luton Town and Everton are better teams.
Not a fan of this move to epl but he will start over Hudson-odoi or other winger. Gibbs white isn’t that good either… gio is more creative and better on the ball than Gibbs. Gibbs is fast and loves to press so I could maybe see nuno playing Gio behind wood and gibbs on wing.
Gio resigning until 2026 is just Dortmund protecting their asset, the only part that concerns me about that is it means he’ll be more expensive and that transfer fee could be a source of pressure for Gio. Really wouldn’t worry about him resigning tho
Americans go to shit teams in England.
As a Forest fan, Gio is 100% going to start on the wing. MGW will stay at the 10. Forest is thin on wingers and has been forced to play Dominguez out of position. Ideally you will see Elanga and Gio start on the wing together with Hudson-Odoi off the bench.
Rating a 6 out of 10
Gio better be fucking ready to show out if he wants significant playing time.
19:51 Matt Turner is not the problem. Taylor Swift is
It is what it is. Let's see what happens.
I don’t like this move but honestly I really want him out of Dortmund under Tezic. Let’s just hope for the best… being in BVB won’t help him either. He’s better giving a shot aborad
These josh Sargent Stan's bro wanting Reyna in the championship 😂. Why are there so many josh Sargent Stan's?? Do you know how many number 9s we have ahead of him?
I wish he would’ve come to Newcastle, but not sure if his work rate is what Eddie Howe wants.
I'll give it a 4 but we shall see
As a forest fan, Gio is being brought in to play on the wing. We play a 4-2-3-1 so he’ll be out wide. He won’t start over Gibbs white and I can’t see him being in a midfield 2.
Forest fan here – I'm quite excited by this move, and hope that it works out well for both Gio and the club.
However, I do find it a bit strange that a fair few Americans seem to be less than pleased with him coming to the City Ground. People say he needs game time, which he isn't getting at Dortmund, hence why he's gone out on loan. People also seem to ask "why has he gone to a small club like Forest", and those people need to look into the history of Forest a bit more.
However, it pretty much boils down to this – if Gio puts in the hard work, and impresses during training, then he'll undoubtedly earn his chance to show what he can do in the Premier League. If he doesn't put in the work and effort, then he won't play. He's a very talented young player, but he's not the second coming of Pele (at least not yet).
I do hope this move works out for everyone involved, and I would love to see Gio flourish while he's here. But whether he is a success here or not is largely up to him.
iam feeling fraud alert for gio i been following him for so long but he just keeps getting older and i dont see him been consistent,iam exited for paxton tho
