Scalvini (20 (incredibly versatile - right sided CB but can play all 4 positions at the back and at 6) reads the game brilliantly - good with the ball Fofana (24) - literally the ideal 6 - technically superb - quick, strong - has a presence similar to the late Tiote but a far better footballer Johan Bakayoko (20) - RW - the number 1 choice - quick - eye for a pass - superb shot

Crazy how many of Trippiers poor deliveries lead to counters

Not an advocate of sacking him - let him learn from this season - this season he’s been on secondment - this is what we want our future to be, can you cope with the demands Eddie? Let him go away, learn from it and come back a more rounded and battle hardened manager

This and the ability to play a single or double pivot based on the opposition - we have a very good core of midfielders in Bruno - Miley - Tonali - Joelinton - Willock, the lack of genuine 6 is an issue and has cost us this season when we have looked fatigued. Added to this it would help protect the back line from counters

I definitely think we will get that from the left eventually with Barnes and Gordon (throw in Joes and Anderson as Wilcards) The right we definitely don’t - only have Miggy and Murphy - you can add Gordon when we have everyone fit - however a winger in necessary and a forward who can drift to the left - I am all for Bakayoko and Mbuemo

Gordon been running on empty since the Bournemouth game bar 1 match vs Man U - Miggy the same We haven’t been the same since that game - tank was almost emptied - literally played the same players ever since

It was worse than the score line read at FT

Aston Villa for all of these in theory

Yeah was a brief note made by Ashworth to the board when they were having a zoom conference

They acknowledged potential difficulties and the possible drop off that may occur It’s been relentless - feel totally worn out - emotionally drained - just imagine how the players must be feeling

To keep the club moving forward and expose us to playing twice a week - builds experience, knowledge and knowhow and if it’s the Conference - a chance to win a trophy Probably phrased it wrong

He isn’t a natural inverted winger so doesn’t naturally think like one I feel sorry for him he’s being exposed so badly in this way

We have to get some form of European football next season even if it’s the Conference League

Or this - just try something different - keep the opposition on their toes - it’s just to predictable

Number 6 is a crucial position which we need to address - you can still press by playing a 4-1-4-1 with Bruno further up just try something different Eddie

Go out and get Scalvini - Fofana - Bakayako got to time for sentiments

Let this season play out and across then The lack of a genuine 6 is a concern - we are too open Lack of discipline today - 46 mins are 1 with ball in the Forest box and we get countered on

Blame Eddie for playing him

Zero discipline today Season is over

Gordon is physically spent - after 30 mins he literally can’t run - same with Miggy

Very good player but nearing 30 - rather someone younger

I reckon 35m - that’s a big fee for Atalanta

Yep - would love him at the Toon - he can also play anywhere across the back 4 too

Giorgio Scalvini looks a heck of a talent as does Lenny Yoro - defo 1 of 2 I would be looking to sign

How unlucky are we that for practically Al the first half of the season we have been without Joe - Joe - Tonali and Anderson
