If we’re going to progress, Almiron needs to be replaced. I like the guy, but he’s the weakest link in our starting 11. He looked good against a poor Forest. Match Bruno up with a quality winger who can finish and that game would’ve been over after 30 minutes.

Delighted to see Gerrard’s boys fall face first. Now for a Lampard pratfall.

Were Bournemouth that good today? Saw that they won… but Stevie G.

Absolutely.

11 under par

Cleansheet!

Woodwork.

There you go

Schaar has been immense.

Obligatory Schaar head injury (Oshi for future ref)

You have a right foot. use it

Good for them

9th That’s possible with the current squad. I don’t think we’re done in this window and think we’ll buy in January. So I’ll be disappointed if we finish lower than that.

@Johnny Where is that from? A Forest forum? How did the others respond?

Love the new season optimism. I can just about convince myself that we’re competing against Arsenal and not Palace, and root for A CP equalizer. Past seasons I’d be looking for Arsenal to destroy whoever they played just so there were three clubs worse off than us.

Did they sell a lot in Fulham back in the day? Are Denmark kits flying off the shelves in Brentford?

Both have a lot to prove. As others have pointed out, Chelsea seems to suck the life out of some very good players. Salad, De Bruyne, etc. I’d settle for a couple of plain good players.

Does all this spending at Chelsea make it more likely they’ll loan out assets? Werner, Broja, Gallagher, Pulisic? Nobody is going to want to sit on the bench with the WC coming.

Real possibility both will be looking for work by Christmas.

Yes. And he’s a great value at 10m. IMO he’s a significant improvement on Dubravka,

Ashworth and Howe are not panicking.

Something like: Mendy Trent Robertson Cancelo James Salah Saka/Diaz Neto Martinelli Kane/Haaland Jesus Bench: Ward, N Williams,Andreas, Greenwood

Three points 1. There’s the satisfaction in being a rebel. 2. You can momentarily deceive yourself into believing that your smarter than all the rest. 3. You’re not going to win anyway. You might as well pick players you like. and 4. I picked Longstaff as my 4.5 midfielder instead of Andreas, Why the f*ck did I do that? I don’t know.

Eriksen? If we weren’t in for him, we really should’ve been.

My latest is almost this. Except Kane for Haaland, Ederson, and a different bench.
