Nottingham Forest (A) - Sat 8th Mar, 12:30 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

McAtee injured or just not made the match day squad?

I think he’s leaving either way. Peps never going to start him in a league match.

No real legs in the middle there. Foden really needs to get working to cover the ground for Bernardo.

Can bring Kovacic and Marmoush off the bench, though.

Let's see. Would take a point.

 

[Cobra]

Harsh on McAtee, maybe he needs to start going out on the piss and not scoring at all to win his place back on the bench?

 

[the plasterer]

Not sure how Foden starts ahead of Marmoush, he has been crap for most of the season, (nailed on to score now)

 

[M Gaudino]

I was hoping to see Oscar Bobb on the bench. Can’t wait till he’s involved again, was soo excited for him at the beginning of the season but better safe than sorry.

bench is now competitive as well

 

[BuryBlue1977]

Would have preferred Kovatic to Bernardo but other than that I think it’s a good line up.
Have always liked Forest due to the comments Clough made about dipper fans so hope we go easy on them and keep it to a respectable 0-5 win.

I’m guessing he’s not fit?

 

[OldhamBlue94]

Very happy with that

 

[dronefromsector7G]

Not sure on that team but we’ll see. I reckon Chris Wood might have an off day :-)

 

[Rodri’s ACL]

No echeverri again sadly

 

[Gumzy97]

Phil’s form has been up and down this season much prefer Marmoush due to his off the ball running, give Haaland more space.

Because Foden has a proven track record, albeit having a down year, it's not like Marmoush is lighting it up, anyway. He's had one excellent performance in eight appearances so far.

 

[Rammy Blue]

No echeverri again sadly

Lol

Or playing well

 

[Rammy Blue]

Foden or Marmoush was a toss up, as was whether it’d be Bernie or Kova alongside Nico.

Can’t be too unhappy though, and Forest have picked an attacking line up as well, should be a belter of a game.

 

[Jonas.shaffer]

should be a belter of a game.

Weather looks brilliant, too.

 

[Nick L]

With Bernardo starting effectively gives Forest an extra man

 

[DenisLawBackHeel74]

I like that front three…but Nunes at RB..just no. Can see Savinho having to track back quite a lot !!

 

[Marvin.]

No echeverri again sadly

Earliest chance is Leicester H I think when there might be some rotation after the Cup game at Bournemouth.

Early kick off this threads already turned to shit.
