Nottingham Forest (H) - Wed 4th Dec, 19:30 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

Yeah, more legs in the side looks pretty essential at the moment.

Won’t happen but i’d like to Gvardiol tried on front of the defence. I think he’s too good to be out of the side for long. If Ake is fit though he helps tighten us up at left back.Hes tried Lewis in there and i can’t see how Josko would offer more. He’s just a better pure footballer and would add some much needed physicality

I dont get Grealish on the wing, never have. Good time to try him in the middle.

Think he could be awesome there, positive, runs at players ala Yaya.

Forest are a very good team so we will have our hands full.

Reset time.

I think we'll win by one goal.

He may prove to be useful in midfield but Yaya Toure he most certainly is not.

Revert to Mancini's 2011-12 tactics with slight modifications, i know it will never happen but anways

-----------------------Ederson(Hart)-------------------------
Walker(Zaba)----Dias(Vinnie)----Ake(Lescott)----JWE(Clichy)
--------Nunes(Yaya)--------Gvardiol(Barry)---------
Foden(Silva)-----KDB(Tevez)-----Grealish(Nasri)
--------------------------Haaland(Aguero)-------------------

Of course, I meant his ability to run with the ball and commit players, draw fouls, create a little.

Once again here I am like a broken record. If we start with Gundo, Berny and Rico we will lose to slow and weak! Play a def mid Wright, Nico and Mybe Berny. Doko has too start too!

 

[David Silva #21]

We could win this game if Pep uses Doku and Savinho in the wing and Grealish in the midfield. There were some good aspects in the second half yesterday.

Ortega
Walker
Dias
Akanji
Ake
Gundogan
KDB (or Foden)
Grealish
Savinho
Haaland
Doku

2-0 City

20 game winning runs have to start somewhere. One game at a time starting on Wednesday night.

 

[argyle]

If we continue banging square pegs in round holes this will be another defeat.

Pep needs to start thinking outside the box.

The greatest manager at thinking outside of the box, needs to start doing that?

 

[argyle]

Pep doesnt seem to learn so expect a poor, slow and lightweight midfield again and them hitting us on counters as they are pretty fast. Just hopefully, for once, we put some chances away

Pep doesn't seem to learn?
