Think Wood will start. With Jesus next in line.
18 Sep 2025 10:47:02
Wood for kalimuendo and Jesus for mcatee, think Jesus is the perfect player to play in and around woody.
18 Sep 2025 10:55:34
I'd go
Sels
Williams
Milenkovic
Murillo if fit
Zinchenko
Luiz
Anderson
Bakwa
Jesus
Wood
Ndoye with jesus playing a bit deeper than wood.
18 Sep 2025 10:57:56
S. Y completely agree with that, MGW and McAtee should both be benched. Jesus definitely deserves a run out with Woody. 🌳.
18 Sep 2025 09:52:54
Boly finished imo Morato and Yates not good enough
There were some encouraging signs last night Jesus Luis Bakwa and Hutchinson were excellent McAtee was better than Gibbs White
Jair Cunha could be Murrilo's new partner for Cup matches and Zinchenko looked good
Lapses of concentration plus Boly cost us last night.

You missed sangare off the poor list.
18 Sep 2025 09:51:17
Burglars in London think Arsenal’s Trophy Cabinet could be a good shout next year, been off their list for the past 5 years while it was empty.

Last nights game was approached like a friendly from Management, that spilled over to some of the players.

Don't agree, Nuno changed a complete team in this competition, did he treat it like a friendly? Ange talked of winning the cup, but wanted to give the new signings game time. I see no problem with that. Lots of talk about subs etc being the cause of defeat. We should of have the game sewn up with the chances we missed. We lost the game basically through rank bad defending. Boly beaten to the ball for the first two goals, Yates should do better in trying to stop the cross in goal number 2. Third goal no response from us as the ball came back off the woodwork. Let's hope a first choice defence, minus Ola, are available for Saturday.
18 Sep 2025 10:57:10
Third goal was Savona's fault - as you say, too slow a response from him. His second mistake following his not watching the man and as the ball went over his head in the Arsenal match. He looks like a fresh-faced kid who is overawed by the PL and needs to mature very quickly if he wants to come over here and earn big money. I'm sure Edu would have thought of that though before discussing it with Nuno?!
18 Sep 2025 08:38:49
I know there is no such thing as a bogey side, but Swansea I remember clearly as if it was yesterday. An earlier post I say said it wouldn't be easy.
My concern is that it is a damaging blow psychologically. Burnley remember didn't loose until that final minute penalty. I see no reason to feel optimistic as Sunderland next and loose both we will be in the bottom 3. Of AP doesn't see what happened in both these games and who he should drop, we will be relegated. I for one would welcome back Mr Cooper.

Although we are a different machine with our first 11 on the pitch I worry about the club environment and pressures forced upon all.
Nuno, had tried to keep a stable ship, but once the results started turning back end of last season the ship started sinking.
Had we had a stable ship, we could afford to make so many changes last night, but perhaps Nunos strategy of earning the shirt in training and on the pitch was the correct one.
A good thing about last night was that Jesus got a run at striker and showed us what he could do, creating some real competition for Wood. And this is a prime example that players need time to settle.
18 Sep 2025 07:24:32
Left back becoming a problem area again. Maybe we should have kept Omar?

Is it?
We have enough at full back in my opinion.
Zinchenko is a solid experienced player and will prove to be a very good addition over the course of the season.
Neco and Aina can play both sides (obviously Aina is injured)
Savona looks solid from what we’ve seen so far.
Once Domi is back from injury I think he’d be more than capable of doing a job at full back if we were desperate.
Perhaps a youngster can force their way into the first team squad for training and impress if need an extra body.
18 Sep 2025 11:00:38
Savona looks solid? He looks totally out of his depth from what I've seen so far and a complete joke.
18 Sep 2025 13:54:00
Both Savona and Jair look out of their depth lacking experience and nous about English football. Morato can't play left back so we are relying only on Zinchenko who can't play every game.
I still think Left back is our recurring achilles' heel. Nuno knew this. He also wanted Adama Traore whose strength would have done wonders for our midfield.

It could get worse you know, another load of sheepshaggers waiting to have a go! Why can professional players not see the game out? As soon as they scored the first I knew what was coming, and they haven't disappointed! MGW, Sangare AGAIN not putting a shift in! At least we got penalty shoot-outs with Nuno lol I'll be very surprised if MGW is a Forest player at the end of Jan 2026!

Said to my mate at 2-1 "they'll get another couple of chances. "
However I never expected that!
Just joking DTP about your prediction, think yours was bad?
I was i'm my local for the 1990 FA Cup Final. so Pearce's free kick I predicted he'd score and "Stand like a statue".
So as we know he did, and I did likewise with my Shipstones shirt on. by the end I was caught skulking out of the bar mate!
"We can see you sneaking out the back Rogie!
We can see you sneaking out the baaaaaack! "

Ange not happy with a few he bought on
And rightly so.

As far as I'm concerned, I don't want to see sangare or MGW PLAY again for us
Ones not good enough the other has no interest in. playing for us
Bin the pair, should know with their experience jow to close game out.

I think it's time for someone to sit mgw down and tell him some hard facts about what happens next. firstly he should stop acting like a petulant child that's had his legs slapped. secondly if he wants out, and clearly he does then he should start playing to impress because at the moment he hasn't got a cat in hells chance of a move to one of the big boys, and to be honest who in their right minds would have him. i posted last week that "no team is too good to go down" I'm genuinely concerned for forest this season, our main priority is premier safety, the cup comes second surely not the other way around. i haven't commented on the new coach yet as I think it's early days, but a pasting at Burnley and Mr M should have second thoughts. that's as honest as I can be.
18 Sep 2025 05:39:32
They gave us a lesson in finishing.
17 Sep 2025 22:31:59
9 goals conceded in 3 games.
6 in 2 from the new manager.
Maranackas you've made one almighty cock up.
He nearly took Spurs down what are the odds he will succeed with us.
There's no excuses we are miles away from what we were last season.
So much money wasted. If Edu is responsible for some of these signings he should have been sacked not Nuno. All the excitement of what we achieved last season has been eroded. Its going to be a really long hard season.
It really looks like a hurried appointment. I was willing to give him a chance and see what he could do. But now got big doubts.

Anderson will be back and I bet ange wishes he'd of put him on the bench instead of sangare and MGW.
18 Sep 2025 00:24:54
Hang on dtp you were praising his way forward on live chat? Can't blame two players. Make your mind up. You whith him or against.?
18 Sep 2025 05:24:11
Well he can't blame the manager Bowie how stupid would he look.
18 Sep 2025 08:38:00
He probably forgot what he said, Bowie.
17 Sep 2025 22:31:49
Nicolo Savono too slow in closing down his man for their 3rd goal, his second big mistake sinc6he came into the team. He is clearly not up to this football yet. Another Edu signing? It was a mistake taking Jesus off at half time, he was having a great game. Unfortunately without Sels, Murrillo, Aina and Milenkovic we are nowhere.

We can play Williams on right and Zinchenko left. I agree Savona looks like a player who isn't settled yet.
We played Nuno's team Sat, and 2nd 11 or players Ange wanted to look at today. We actually lost after MGW and CHO came on.
Sels
Williams
Milenkovic
Murillo
Zinchenko
Anderson
Luiz
Bakwa, ? , Ndoye
Jesus
Team's picked itself apart from number 10. Probably be MGW but neither McAtee or MGW have earned the start IMO. Can Bakwa play 10 and CHO start?
Wood is unlucky if he doesn't start but surely Jesus has a few of youu lot getting your humble pies out?
18 Sep 2025 00:14:22
Cyclist we have a player that goes out as captain that isn't interested, so drop him simple, no player is bigger than the club.
18 Sep 2025 05:25:31
Dtp ange got it wrong. Just say it 🤣🤣 it's ange football get use to it.
18 Sep 2025 05:34:54
They are all Edu's signings. Let's not pretend the previous coach had any input on players coming in.
17 Sep 2025 22:29:11
Take a chill pill. He was looking at the players he has and will have learned a lot. Wonder goal won it remember.
