On current form, Burn and Schar 100% get in ahead of Maguire like.

Saw they didn't have a sponsor yesterday, would be hilarious if they got Sports Direct

Apparently the MLS is the place to be for entertaining football:

The absolute state of swapping Seville for Nottingham

Going to be hilarious in two weeks time when Haaland exists inside Dan Burns pocket.

Looking at our squad yesterday Vs yours today based on form over the past year or so, and trying to remove all bias: De Gea > Pope Trippier > Dalot Schar > Maguire Martinez > Burn Targett = Shaw Bruno G > McTominay Joelinton = Fred Erikson > Willock Sancho > Almiron Bruno F > ASM Wilson > Rashford.

It's class looking forward to football again, want to watch every game. Love what this takeover and Eddie has done. First time since Rafa that I've properly looked forward and enjoyed the start of PL season.

Class

How does it work with Coventry, they rent the ground don't they? So is it another company that manages the pitch, and out of Coventry's hands?

I've had a read of that Villa forum, was it actually that bad? @brummie

Remember during the Pardew era when we went 3 years without scoring from a corner as we'd continually float it to the back post for Mike Williamson, good times

You could argue that Forest got promoted a season too early, when Cooper came in they where rock bottom after 8 games without a win. He then picked up a few wins as he's a very competent manager, and tactically switched on, them wins then boosted confidence and they just rode that wave all the way to the Play-Offs and promotion. The end result being that a squad of mid-table championship players got promoted who where no-where near good enough for the transition across, and half there players contracts where up, or on loan, so at that point you have to decide if you stick or twist with the same set. They decided the latter and it's going to be a harsh couple of weeks for them while the bed in. Hopefully they do as a club like Forest deserve to be in the Premier League, certainly more so then teams like Norwich.

That corner was hilarious, it's just the juxtaposition between Forest going "We have something that's going to proper bamboozle them", to Pope just calmly coming out and collecting the ball in the middle of his box

Going to be a tougher game they're a really tidy side, fancy us for the 3 points though.

Class strike from Ward-Prowse.
