  1. Sounds like Chelsea are whoring Broja about for a loan.
  2. Olise is going to be some player if he stays injury free. He'd be my #1 pick for this summer, if we can get him.
  3. The downside of their midfield 2 is that a 3rd man can find great gaps from the lack of numbers. Miley played a really intelligent game until he gassed out.
  4. The worry here is that they do a Forest with the old sit back and counter. If we're without Wilson and Isak, I'll not be feeling too confident.
  5. I've only watched Villa a few times this season. They were seriously impressive against City but the other times I've seen them have almost been a carbon copy - high line getting exposed but not punished. Underlying stats show they're a good team but have ridden their luck at times.
  6. Once Tino had found the rhythm of the game after a couple of minutes, he was his usual self. He's a fucking brilliant sub in our current scenario due to his adaptability.
  7. Surely with Brighton's SUPER POSSESSION style, they shouldn't be experiencing any injuries?
  8. This is him still managing intensity while forward options return from injury.
  9. Masterclass considering the midfield and Isak getting injured. We look close to our old selves. Fitness held up really well in that one and, consequently, so did shape. Hopefully, Wilson and Barnes back in the squad for Saturday. Onwards and upwards.
  10. I wouldn't hate it if Tino was a sub for a winger along with Miggy today as well. Protection from wingers is massive for our team, both for FBs and the midfield itself. Knowing that we can make subs for both wingers at 60/70 minutes could be a big help.
  11. Aye, we probably need to bypass the midfield where possible. Tbf, Villa do play that high line so it's potentially a good time to accept sitting deeper and hoping Isak and Gordon's pace can cause problems.
  12. Class. In a couple of years he could be a really decent force in the league.
  13. We'll take decent confidence from that and hold out for a 1-1.
  14. Feel like whenever we have a break I really miss watching Bruno, Gordon, and Isak play footy. Sneak a 2-1, Gordon & Isak to score.
  15. For all everyone says we need a sitting mid as all top sides do, Rodri is very positionally fluid now. Presses high as well. Liverpool don't play Endo much either.
  16. He's just stating the obvious but it is weird for him to be so on the nose in public. Potentially a slight shot across the bows for Joelinton too. He loses a bit of bargaining power with a longer term injury.
  17. Actually think he'd be quite a logical stopgap for us, tbh What he's better at is what we're lacking. As long as it doesn't go past the loan period. Can't see Spurs doing us a favour though.
  18. Feels like we'd make him an 'attacking' 8 with license to rotate into the channels.
  19. Gibbs-White is very talented but inconsistent, like. Coming to an age where you'd expect him to iron that out though. Seems like he might be available at a decent price considering Forest's finances.
  20. Not sure Rojas is that solid anymore. Pretty sure he went through a period of having digs at Miggy after some games about his lack of right foot Seems to rarely post about him now. Jacobs will have been given this info from a Saudi source, presumably.
  21. He's absolutely infuriating sometimes but I think he'd be a really useful member of the squad still. Minteh is meant to be very similar in profile (really good presser/defender from the front (probs doesn't have the stamina), isn't he? Wonder if we think we have Miggy's squad replacement sorted for next season already.
  22. Pizza Rob's hit rate is reducing, tbf. In fact, his inaccuracy has increased since it came out that we were leaking fake rumours.
