Need to go all out for this now. If we're expecting Man City to turn it on in the league then top 4 could end up slipping away from us while we're still struggling massively with injuries. It helps massively that the games are weekend and not lumped in midweek between Premier League matches so get stuck into it and ruin these to get us started.

We have Timo to play right back, if he needs a break he should be getting it. Its insane to be playing something who is either not physically or mentally (or both) fit to play.

Fucking Trippier again.

Oh my God this ref.

Maybe wait another 10 minutes.

We're gonna score again here.

How was that not a freekick to us ff? Ref you wanker!

Could really do with Hall in the midfield for fresh legs defensively.

Nkunku

Doesn't look too serious with Gordon. The likes of him will really benefit from the easier schedule next month. We could really do with a lower league side in the 4th round of the FA Cup.

No chance Chelsea score, shite they are. Let them kick it around all night for all I care, we'll score again.

Are these refs getting worse on games without VAR because they rely so heavily on it? How have none of them spotted that?

We should definitely go stronger tonight than Saturday, if we’re forced to rotate majorly for the next few games. Remember the cup final last year? That’s what this means and we can’t just put a weakened team out and say ah well if we go out. The top four chase is massively important as well but we’re playing two teams who are struggling. Although Luton have been impressive against the bigger sides this season they still have only 2 wins and 9 points, Forest aren’t a whole pile better.

The comments under that tweet. Serious potential for a record away win for us against them if those are anything to go by.

They should have waited until after the derby because when we hump them they'll 100% want him out.

Peter Drury doesn't half talk complete nonsense like.

Starting to give up with this season. I know that’s a stinking attitude to have but I’m just sick to death of these injuries. We’re incapable of being able to give things a proper go with this shite.

Between this lad and Wilson man. Is there a striker in the world who can play 10 games in a row?

I love Trippier but him being out at the minute is probably a positive. I think we should start Burn, Longstaff and Wilson here and we should be ok regards fitness levels, its nice to be able to rotate again. We're fairly solid at SJP so Fulham have a lot of work to do to beat us.

Need to win here and get going again, 3 defeats in a row is pretty grim and Fulham have been pretty good lately. We've catching up to do on the top four so lets smash these.

I don't know that, do you? Financial fairplay is tight but we don't know exactly what we have to spend, plus we're allowed to sell someone to buy as well. Either way we still have time to get players back and fit before Europe starts up again in February.

Should we play our reserves against Chelsea next week then?

Exactly. We have about 2 months to get players back and fit, plus another transfer window to maybe get a body or 2 in. The knockouts aren't next week like. The Europa League is a legit chance of winning silverware, creating more great memories and of course another option for qualifying for next season's Champions League. It baffles me that people are happy we didn't qualify for it and would rather we go out altogether.

Can't believe some people think not falling into the EL is a positive. We're literally just back in Europe and people are turning their nose up at the Europa League? Wild.

Hopefully the lads aren't too deflated for the Fulham game this weekend. Time now to focus on this and get back in next season.
