Osula will get bullied by these CB's but his pace inbehind would be more threatening. Need to find a way to get Barnes more shooting chances. He's our main threat.
-
Wilson started alright but faded badly. Really hope we don't regret those missed chances. Feels like we needed one of those to go in while we were on top. Formation working well again so far. Botman with some lovely incisive passes.
-
In this formation it should mean Barnes and Gordon are pushed up high so hopefully they can't play a super high line. But either way mentally you are right, they won't be afraid of Wilson like they are Isak. Just hope they get over confident and leave space for others to exploit. Defense is going to need to be rock solid.

Confirms what many of us thought that he's been playing injured pretty much ever since missing that Liverpool away game. He wasn't "off form" or "not arsed" it was the injury holding him back. Same thing happened last season. He was playing hurt for ages and putting in 90 mins every week for us because we had nothing else available. But when he was properly fit he was still scoring goals for fun like the spell pre injury this year. We have to get depth around him next year so we can avoid these situations reoccurring.
-
Also lol at Arsenal trying to bemoan injuries and feel sorry for themselves. All the people who were "doubts" all involved. Count me shocked.
-
The thing with playing Isak lately has been just the mental threat for the other teams having him on the pitch. So we do lose that but if there is any chance of him being available for next week then it is a sensible choice not to go all in on this game as next week is the more winnable fixture. Need Barnes and Gordon to play the games of their lives here though.
-
Will take a draw then If he's out for next week aswell then everyone really will be shitting themselves. Would rather Osula to have some pace in behind.
-
As good as won this for Forest now. Something to sit in and defend and just counter like they have done all season.
-
Ashley Young having the cheek to accuse anyone else of diving Everton are very beatable if we play to our best. When we play fast and down the sides we are pretty unstoppable against most at home. Only worry would be if we start flat and then the nerves creep into the players.
-
Don't like him saying he is tired though with two big games still to play. I mean he's been playing like he's tired but I don't want the the opposition to know that or for him to mentally believe it
-
Haven't watched the game, but N'Diaye and McNeil are annoying little players that could cause us some concern next week.
-
If Palace get a 2nd this is done. Everything going wrong for City
-
Except the cup final last year? Where they also conspired to fuck it.
-
Lol.. why isn't Haaland on pens
-
Hate those sort of pens. It's a clear dive and the ball is already out of play. Shocking decision.
-
Doesn't bother me as a co-comm but find him irritating on rest is football, offers zero insight, just regurgitates the obvious all the time.
-
City line up was bit arrogant. Playing a midfield two of De Bruyne and Silva. Playing two upfront. Playing two ver attacking wingers and playing the kid at left back. Started the game pretty dominant but tactically this is playing into Palace hands.
-
As long as we don't pick up any bad injuries and/or get thumped 4 or 5 nil then there shouldn't be any need to panic. Just wish we had a somewhat easier game to give us a better chance of finishing it before Everton. But that's how it's fallen and hopefully this team will see it through and get us over the line like they did in 22/23 and the in the cup final this year.
-
Hoijlund is really poor. Lost the ball everytime it's been near him from what I've seen.
-
I don't like that they realistically only need a point, whereas a point doesn't change much for us so we ideally need the 3 as we can't get 2 points from Everton, so would still need a win there anyways. So there is that. Just hope we can frustrate them and then be super clinical when we get any chances. Basically a repeat of the cup games.
-
Pretty sure I heard that Gittens was going to Chelsea and it was already done. Plus isn't he more of a right footed left winger?
-
Thought that was a foul by McGinn in the build up. Annoys me his whole game is backing his arse into the opposition.
-
Eddie doesn't need the award, he can win it in future seasons when we win the league. Keep him hungry.
-
Spurs got too many attacking injuries and a weaker mentality. Plus add on that Man U always find a way to scrote. It's lose lose but can try to enjoy the misery of whoever loses as it will have been a rotten season for whoever does.
