Forest play counter-attacking football although we did rip them apart when we were struggling. When we play Savinho or Doku it leaves Gvardiol isolated in defence & depending on the fitness of Jack, I'd play him on the left with Savinho on the right
 
Wouldn't mind seeing Jack given the 10 role to match his shirt.

Doubt we see Grealish in the middle again, but I'd rather him on the left instead of Doku to help Gvardiol with Aina and Elanga down their right. Then have Marmoush drop into the space behind Haaland and have Savinho on the right.

100% agree upon a rethink.

How often you hear that here?

Savi........2Mar.......Jack

If Bernie didn't obviously need a rest Id slot him in for Kova.

The pre-match threads generally seem pretty good until the official lineups come out lol.

Bernardo would be a great late game sub for Kovacic since he runs himself ragged after 60-70 minutes. If we're down or even well into the second half, I wouldn't mind throwing caution to the wind and throwing Doku on for Grealish and de Bruyne for Marmoush.

There’s logic to that.

I’d like Oreilly next to Gonzalez

I've given up hope of seeing jack inside. Almost makes too much sense. We spent 6 months completely void of legs and dynamicsm and he stlll didn't try put him in there.

There was 1 game this season where foden and grealish were playing as 8s and I swear it worked

Jack had a super game v. Real leg 1 before he came off 30th minute. Think he lined up left but he to my memory was cutting in a ton i think got an assist. Not sure how he fell from grace that quick.

Think he’d been out of favor for a while at that point. It was so weird that he looked to be just a bit part cup player getting starts against PSG, Salford and Orient, then Pep picks him to start against Madrid. He started on the left against Madrid and played well with Gvardiol making overlapping and underlapping runs.
 
Kick off time 12:30 GMT.

Full weeks rest at this point in the season for the first time in about 10 years.

Similar team to the one that started again Spurs, need pace and physicality out there. Forest work hard and have a dangerous front 4 that could cause us problems if we're not on it.

I think this will be a very tough game.

------------------Ederson
????---Khusanov---Dias---Gvardiol
-----------Gonzalez---????
---------------------?????
Savinho-------Haaland----------?????

I'm sure of those 7 and then not sure on the rest.
Marmoush, Doku and Foden will start behind Haaland. I expect Savio on the bench. Nunes at RB and the sole one i cant call is next to Gonzalez. My guess is Kova but it could be anyone.
 
Ederson
Nunes
Khusanov
Dias
Gvardiol
Nico
Kovacic
Bernardo
Savinho
Doku
Haaland.

Have nico play the 6, not that weird 8 role that didn't work against Spurs, kovacic and bernardo can play as a double 8 either side of him which adds some solidity and control to the midfield. Just feed the wingers as early as possible and let them provide for haaland.
I like this.
 
Do you think Marmoush will start? I hope so.
I think because Doku has been so dominant in gis last 2 appearances, he is guaranteed to start behind Haaland. With 2 of the following 3: Marmoush, Savio and foden. I think Savio will be the odd man put in this one. Which makes sense since he and Doku struggle to go hard for 90 minutes.

Maybe Doku starts and Savio comes on to finish.
 
Marmoush could be an issue as he won't be able to break his fast till 6pm.
With the game kicking off early it is not ideal for him.

Ironically it's was against Forrest
