'Please god no!' - Nottingham Forest fans make feelings about surprise transfer link crystal clear

Nottingham Forest fans have been reacting to the suggestion Chris Hughton should bring Henri Lansbury back to the City Ground.

Former Leeds United striker Noel Whelan has urged the Reds to re-sign the 29-year-old midfielder from Aston Villa.

Lansbury left Forest to join Villa in 2017, but is said to have been made available for transfer by the Premier League club.

“I would be looking very closely as a Championship club," said Whelan, speaking to Football Insider.

“Forest might. Forest could do with someone like Henri Lansbury back there to be quite honest with you.

"You’re talking about a midfield player with quality, aggression, creativity, set-piece taking.”

Here's how Forest fans have been reacting on Twitter:

PeterB: Please god no! We have 40 games left I cannot cope with his 4 games where he will be a world beater and then other 36 you would not know he’s playing!

Cameron Clark: Just no.

Midlands red: No thank you

Phil Harrison: NO, just no

bosstrade: No. He left. Move in.

Ian: Rather have Carvalho back than Lansbury

barry: Tbf him in a team with colback, lolly, grabs could be very good.

Perry: Only turned up when he wanted to. I'd rather not personally

jay nffc: No thanks 1 good game out of 6
