We need to find form and find our level so we can figure out how/where to improve. Our Prem oppo is extremely strong- we might actually be a worse side than 7-10 other sides in the Prem right now.

Making and sustaining a culture and habit of winning generally is important too.

I’d have to disagree.

Far too rational , justifiable and sensible.

It’s not who we are ( mate ) . These days .
 
I am with those thinking the semi is still away off. Injuries can happen anywhere like in training. Therefore only rest those that need it whilst giving those that need mins opportunity to start. Many were rested against Wolves and bigger rotation against Liverpool as we never win there anyway and Handing Liverpool the title will piss off Woolwich.
Romero & Solanke played against Wolves as well and so get rested. VDV needs some playing time but does not ha\ve to play whole match. Danso, Odebert & Richie need mins but will again need to be subbed

Vic,
Spence, Danso, VDV, Udogie
Bentencur, Bergvale, Kula
Tel, Richie, Odebert

Not a chance in this universe or the one newly discovered , that may have signs of life, that is the team that starts.

Bergvall rightly getting the applause and reward for his efforts this season. He was thrown in at the deep end….
But so was gray and had to play out of position. Surely he deserves a run out in midfield in these dead rubbber league games?
At this stage finishing 17th or 7th makes no odds.

I think he'll mix it up a bit, maybe with one eye on WHO plays the Semi, rather than who needs rest now....

Doubt Maddison or Son will play, Son in cotton wool for the next few weeks I reckon... Likewise VDV if Danso is back... and maybe, just maybe, with the heat off for this one, Bergwall gets a go as #10 in place of Maddison??

Got a feeling Archie Gray and Moore might start, or at least see some minutes on Monday...
If only to give Ange options in CM alongside Bentancur/Biss/Sarr , and a realistic alternative to Son/Tel on the left...

Vicario
Spence Romero Danso Udogie
Gray Sarr
Kulu/Odobert Bergwall Moore
Solanke/Richie

I hope we are practicing on a shitty astroturf pitch for the next 3 weeks , we have until the 8th of May to prepare for Bodo Gimps away . I am really not fussed about Forest , a win would be in the nice to have category , but no more than that .

I think this has become a much harder game for Forest after last night.

The fans will be buzzing as will the players, and most will want to give everything, to squeeze a place in the semi-final team.

Had we lost yesterday, I think this would have had away win written all over it. Now, I think we win, regardless of the changes from yesterday,s line-up.

Speak for yourself on this - if we lost last night I wouldn't give a fukk about any PL games as I hardly do now :)
 
It’s so sad to see that this game now basically doesn’t matter to most, people are very much in the “all eggs in the Europa basket” which is somewhat true, but this club and this squad SHOULD be able to do well in both, and I think that’s what makes me saddest this season.

we will more than likely finish 17th. they've stopped playing for him ages ago. europa league they have themselves to play for and not that clown. 17th probably does us a favour because he has to be sacked regardless of europa league. levy is such a fool though you just dont know with that idiot.

Don Pedro Don Pedro Remember when you said a few months back that we should rest players in the Prem and prioritise in the EL and it cause a massive meltdown in the Ange thread because everyone thought we'd get relegated if we did that.
 
Play Chirpy for all I care to be honest. Anyone with the slightest niggle can watch from the stands. I would like to see Gray play at DM as well because he's only two good performances there away from being our best option IMO.
