I’m sure Nottingham Forest would not resort to using superheroes…

We need to win this to go to 13th and stop them getting UCL, unless of course it means that Chelski don't qualify.

Exactly; your enemy’s enemy is your friend ; use it as a training game for working on things that will bear fruit in the future.

I’d take a resounding 1 nil loss if it ultimately helps our cause , knackers Chelski and helps Ange fine tune his tic-tacs to deliver against Bodo .
 
Your posts are simply brilliant and informative.
No arrogance, accusations, or malice whatsoever—simply a great read.

Thank you very much.
Thanks,

I do sometimes joke around but I've been using forums for a while - sine the late 80's on BBS systems when they used to look like this :-

I'm not here for arguments or to insult people, it's just discussing opinions innit?

No point risking things , they're all dead rubbers. For me it's about rest and getting certain plays into some form, tel , kulu and solanke need to find that goal touch
 
So there's me assuming Arse will be playing Palace's reserves midweek, as they'll have one eye on the Semi Final...
Then it dawned on me that Forest are playing the other semi final, so are in a similar boat, albeit with a few extra days!

Difference is, Forest are still going for Top 4 in the league, Palace aren't!

Typical WE play the semi finalists with summit to play for elsewhere, whereas the Arse will no doubt face the Young Eagles under-11's team!!
 
The Liverpool game could be them getting the title. We probably need to rest some players but I don’t want us to be the butt of the jokes and be on the end of an absolute dicking.

Honestly don't give a toss about the PL title race. Liverpool have won it.

Rest players tomorrow, full strength vs Liverpool and Bodo. Still think we can get a result at home to Forest even if we make some changes.

Liverpool played the last 2 games like they are on the beach, if we went full strength as a warm up, we could get a result there and go into the EL flying.

You can’t just rest players and hope they are firing come the semi final. They need to keep playing ,get some results and confidence.
 
Need to keep things consistent - rotate a few in/ out during the game to rest some legs but pretty much the same team you’d want in the SF and who played in the QF. momentum and playing like you’ve met before can’t be overestimated and is quite useful in trying to win matches. It’s what most coaches do.

I suspect, therefore, a massively changed line up as Ange is one for making the weirdest footballing decisions so I would expect to see some 9-changes nonsense.
