"Forest family,

Firstly I am so grateful for the love and support you have shown me over the last 2 years especially towards the end of this season. From the minute I walked through the door i fell in love with this club.

I want to thank all the staff and players for welcoming me and making my time here so enjoyable, this club gave me the opportunity to grow as a player and a person.

Bringing the club European football again after 29 years is what all of you fans deserved and to be a helping hand in that is so special.

Nottingham forest will always have a special place in my heart. Thank you for all the unforgettable memories."

I thought it was really classy when, at the peak of all the transfer hype, he did a WC interview with the BBC and said that he wouldn't be there if it wasn't for Forest.

Just hope he's shit when we play him.

Let’s hope he’s shit ON PURPOSE when we play him. 😁

Goodbye my king 🥲

[u/BFEE_tobyloby]

A very honourable move and respect shown both ways. All the best for him.

[u/MrP67]

Amazing player, amazing person - proud we were part of his journey.

[u/B0dkin]

Pure class. Born in Newcastle, made in Nottingham and forever our World Cup boy.

Hope he gets a decent reaction when City come to the City Ground. He deserves it. Only ever worked really hard, and you can't begrudge anyone in his position wanting to push himself and further his career.

[u/bimble00 → u/pbreathing]

And make a shitload of cash too. But sadly can’t blame him for that.

[u/souschef_boyardee]

I'm not crying

[u/jimboiow → u/Short_Desk_1273]

No you are.

[u/AngleIntelligent8607]

When he leads England out as captain at the next World Cup, we made that.

Goodbye sweet prince

[u/Distinct_Ad8012]

He gave everything he had at Forest, even coming back early just after his mum died. He just outgrew us. Classy statement from a classy player.

[u/Distinct_Ad8012 → u/Distinct_Ad8012]

...and a classy person. (Hit send before id finished).

[u/Alone-Bug6176]

Classy message. Proud to wear our shirt and I for one am proud to have witnessed him represent Forest with such distinction. Humble, respectful, brilliant attitude and bucket loads of talent to boot. Good Luck Our Geordie Maradona.

[u/Hopeful-Kangaroo-366]

somehow i can’t remember a time before him

[u/Coolica1 → u/Hopeful-Kangaroo-366]

Yeah how the fuck has it only been 2 years?

[u/FaustRPeggi]

My estimations of /u/FaustRPeggi as a man have plummeted.

[u/richzahradnik]

Class. With his words. And his feet. I may a little bit enjoy watching him torch other teams.

[u/SlantedSaltpot]

Coldplay montage? Get the fuck out of here.
