Team for Forest.

The result against Arsenal set us up for the final I reckon. OG is right to keep the momentum going and not drop off, but certainly rotate the team as much as possible for minutes.

We have the weed to catch, and our highest total ever as well as the top half to get. All important I reckon.

Of course only 1 game matters, but playing to our highest standards in the other games will set us up perfectly I reckon.

As long as no one gets injured...
 
I think we'll see a fair chuck of early subs the next 2 games. But I wouldn't expect 2nd string starting line ups.

Glasner has talked about sharpness and continuity of performance. We want to go into this on form, not with the first 11 having had 2 weeks off.

But useful to get some mins in players like Nketiah that normally doesn't get much. Same as Franca and Esse. Dont know if we'll need them.

That aside, I agree that a european place is too tricky now, but it would be great to try and get top half if possible. Most of the teams above us have tricky games left.
 
Do we have to put 11 players out?

I was thinking just recall Édouard and Holding and play them with Turner in goal. That way Turner gets playing time - sorted. Holding has to sprint whether he likes it or not - sorted - and, Édouard - well he'll still do nothing. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. Certainly nothing gained.

Surely even Match of the Day would discuss it for more than the 10 seconds about Eze.

For a one-off fee, to cover travelling expenses and a Kebab afterwards, I'll happily make it four of us on the pitch. As long as I can take a break for a fag here and there, I'm willing to support the cause. Plus I still have a pair of boots... somewhere.
 
Let’s do all we can to beat Forest, Momentum is important.

I’d love us to break out points record and potentially finish in the top 10.

We can always rotate where necessary.

Also many of our players in the past picked up injuries in training, so not playing them is no guarantee.

As for the midfield, I used to say it picked itself but Kamada has been excellent lately and deserves to be considered as a starter, great to finally have options along with Lerma
Again, excellent is a stretch. He simply hasn't been awful...which is a big improvement I suppose.
We're in for a rollercoaster final few games that's for sure. Can't wait! COYP
 
Forest are falling apart.

2-0 down at home to Brentford tonight and heading for yet another defeat.

In reality they have a great season - from relegation candidates to Champions League contender positions in a short time.
However, the expectations were so high it now looks a bit disappointing.

Everything can change so quickly in football.

Got a forest fan I work with who said today it’s horrible to drop off from the CL but if Europe and top ten were offered at the start they would have bit your hand off. They were relegation faves I think.
