SUPERTOON

Interesting to see if Livramento comes back In today. Assumed he was just rested against Luton but Howe could finally name his favoured back 4 today.

Been reading forest fans preview of the game, he said their main weakness is defending crosses in the box. Hopefully trippier can cross a ball today.

Our poor away from increases the pressure on our home games. Should hopefully have enough for 3 points today, but I think it will be a tight nervy game.

Genuinely don’t think he could win either way. He would have been slated if he has rested them and we lost.

Newcastle 1-1 Forest Bournemouth 2-1 Fulham Sheff Utd 1-1 Luton Burnley 0-2 Liverpool Man Utd 0-2 Villa Brentford 1-1 Wolves Chelsea 2-0 Palace Everton 1-2 Man City Brighton 1-3 Spurs Arsenal 2-0 West Ham

Absolutely nothing so far since the takeover suggests PIF are going to be ruthless, itchy trigger finger types. Everything so far suggests the opposite in fact. (Rightly so)

Why Karius ?

He’s been ill the last week or so (flu type illness), Edwards did an article on it, still hasn’t missed a day of training. Probably a bit run down.

I’d lose interest if Jose ever gets the job here.

Rice is so good

Did VVD just ask the ref if he’s been drinking ?

Don’t think that’s the point he’s making, more that you can judge or sack a manager based on one game

You said he’s done it quicker than Howe, Howe did it in his first full season. We had a worse squad and were in a far worse position than Villa when Emery took over. It’s not even debatable.

Has to be a pen that

He’s not done either of those things btw.

Still think what we are seeing currently is a result of the summer window. Obviously not the clubs fault not having Tonali and Barnes for the majority of the season, but I’d still argue we didn’t do enough to strengthen the starting 11. I’d imagine it’s a lesson they have learned and it won’t be repeated.

Still think that was a major failing of the summer window when it wasn’t addressed. Expect that to be rectified in the summer.

Maybe expecting to not have a pathetic performance?

I’d pinpoint injuries, fatigue and in hindsight a poor summer window as main reasons for our poor form.

And rightfully so.

No excuse to not make some changes here.

Not almost, we are bottom 3 on away form.

Liveprool, City, Sunderland and Villa in a row is brutal ?

I don’t think there will be one.

The original decision was offside though
