We can't play John Ruddy man. Agree with the rest apart from maybe Longstaff in for Joelinton, Joe needs a week to cool off.

Its games like this in early rounds of a cup against Premier League opponents when you really see what your squad depth is like. 

 

Right now, other than the midfield, it's actually pretty poor. Lascelles, Botman and Schar unavailable plays a big part in that but it's still not particularly inspiring to imagine what team we could put out (without exhausting the players who played today and then will play against Spurs)

bring on Sanusi at some point 

Please no Dubravka. The fact he’s still on our books is pathetic. Cost us so many points last season

Sickening how long you have to wait for a prematch thread these days tbh. 

 

Is a draw thread the pre match thread for cup games? Never understood.

Would go strong. We need to build fitness, sharpness, and rhythm with our best 11 - it's a bit early to be worrying about rotation too much imo. 

 

Also, we want to win a cup! 


Yep

Krafth

Burn

We've two opportunities to break our 70 years or so without a domestic trophy. We need to take this one seriously and hope that Forest rest a few as they'll be more concerned about staying up.

Think I’d go, injuries and fitness providing, something like

 


Pope

Tripps - Kraft - Kelly - Hall

Willock - Bruno - Big Jow 

Miggy - Isak - Barnes

 

Not a chance Tonali starts but if they put out a weak team and we can get it done within the hour it’s perfect to give him, Osula, Targett a good half hour off the bench.
