Taking a bit of a risk, with survival not yet assured. Still not impossible they are in the Champions League and Championship next season.

If they're playing reserves then it justifies our playing reserves even more so as to have less of a physical disadvantage come Thursday. Apart from Rogers, obvs.

And Tielemans, who looks more in need of a rest than any of our other players. Bizarre, with Luiz sitting on the bench.

The 3 players who should have been rested more than anyone else were in the team yesterday…. Cash, Tielemans and Rogers. All 3 played. 
Personally, I think we’ve fucked it big time.

The plan was only in your head. He rested most of the first team. Plan over.

Only Pau, Konsa and two thirds Watkins by my reckoning unless you count Buendia.

Onana and McGinn injured and debatable about Digne given the need to attack and the penalty.

forest dont seem to be bothered about staying up .   Maybe he thinks the money in the champs league makes up to getting relegated with getting the parachute payment and get a cup and straight back up . who knows ....   The greek wants that cup bad.

After 1.59 yesterday Martinez was delaying taking his goal kicks. Forest go on attack and score. Funny that.

It’s not looking good chaps. Their attitude is very much on the offensive. Whatever the line up. It’s a mentality thing. We have looked the past three games like we are hiding.
