Nothing to do with his ability. High fee/wagesWe cannot. Clearly not good enough and no wonder we struggle to sell him.

Difficult to know whether it has, is still ongoing or was ever on in the first place. This Newcastle journo seems to think its not happening, though from what I've read tonight it sounds like he has a bit of a dubious track record on these things. Like most at this time of year, I guess only time will tell.Why has the deal broken down?
We don't know there ever was a deal, we know Newcastle were interested in January, there is a massive chance that all the talk of the move this summer was simply leftover chatter from that when in reality there have been no further discussions since then. Always have to remember 95% of transfer rumors are nothing or mostly nothingWhy has the deal broken down?
It was widely reported he travelled to Newcastle to speak to them in May. We must have given him permission. I thought it was a done deal.We don't know there ever was a deal, we know Newcastle were interested in January, there is a massive chance that all the talk of the move this summer was simply leftover chatter from that when in reality there have been no further discussions since then.

We dunno, the reports could have been massively exaggerated which is regularly the case or fabricated altogether, one person reports it and it snowballs.... or they could have taken place either side felt the deal isn't for them, or it could be money Henderson has really high wages for a goalkeeper that could have been an issue, or the fee could problem, maybe Newcastle only wanted a loan at this stage. I never go the feeling it was a done deal.It was widely reported he traveled to Newcastle to speak to them in May. We must have given him permission. I thought it was a done deal.
Amazing / hilarious that they have a solid strategy in place in 6 months when it took us nearly 10 years.As I’ve said before they’re rich not stupid. Now they have a new DoF who is used to finding cheaper players, no doubt he’s got some ideas for GK or he’s convinced them that they’d be better spending that money on brightons keeper
I'd prefer the reverse. It should be an obligation based on achievable targets such as avoiding relegation.If it's an 'option' to buy then do one.
Whilst I’m not a fan, he’s an England level goalkeeper. Option to buy at £20m is a pisstake for the reasons you said above.I'd prefer the reverse. It should be an obligation based on achievable targets such as avoiding relegation.
Option to buy will be a lose lose. If he does really well, we might've sold him on a cheap. If he doesn't, his value will deteriorate.
Edit: I think I misunderstood your post initially when I read it again
Can you only have one player on loan from a club?Probably needs a title change as looks like Newcastle have cooled their interest.

Forest now linked, would make sense with Samba seemingly off. Would mean Garner wouldn't be going back there on loan though.
At one time, yeah.Can you only have one player on loan from a club?
Ah, i didn't know that, has this always been a rule?At one time, yeah.
Yeah as far as I knowAh, i didn't know that, has this always been a rule?
Can’t be an obligation since Forest could be relegated this season. An option is fine, it’s not as if we will struggle to sell him for that priceAre we incapable of negotiating sales? It just feels like these loan dealings are our way for offsetting a problem for another season. Either tell them to make a bid, or at the very least a loan with an obligation to buy then we should entertain them. Otherwise tell them to feck off.
He’s probably the highest paid English goalkeeper currently in the league. Our BS wage structure is a major hurdle we have to overcome if we want to be a well run club againWhilst I’m not a fan, he’s an England level goalkeeper. Option to buy at £20m is a pisstake for the reasons you said above.
Why would they do that? So if he proves that he's worth it, we say no to the option. If he has an average or poor season, they have to buy a GK for 25 million. We'd need Woodward on the other side to make it happen.Can we do a loan with an obligation to buy (at £25m) but we have over-riding option to say no to sale.
If he does poorly/ok, £25m… if does really well, we can say we‘ll have him back.
Bit ‘ifs and buts’ but an option to buy is a no no and if we get an obligation to buy, they’ll either be getting a good Goalie for a decent price (onsell for profit) or worse case, they’ll sell on and take a bit of a hit.
Needs to be loaded more towards us or a straight buy for a decent price.
Why would we accept a loan and an option? To a club who will get a fee for Samba assuming he goes.Why would they do that? So if he proves that he's worth it, we say no to the option. If he has an average or poor season, they have to buy a GK for 25 million. We'd need Woodward on the other side to make it happen.
The need would be because Samba would be off so they'd need a keeper. He himself probably doesn't want a permanent there with the chance they could go straight back down.Henderson has proven himself as a good premier League level keeper. Forest should be told no why loan the player if there's no need for him in the first 11.
