Well we’re dreadful at the minute and we’ve got so many injuries that’s it’s a great time to play us. While it was similar going into the last game, Forest have improved hugely and their pressing game will lead to goals given the fact we fack about playing from the back with a back 4 that’s totally incompetent. Pretty much any shot you take at Ward goes in, we’re honestly in the worst form of the entire PL right now
3-1 to Forest, comfortable home win and we’ll be taking your place as relegation favourites

I've got you winning 2-1.
Ward isn't that bad a goalie, made some decent saves on Tuesday. However even Shilton would be leaking goals like a sieve with our defence and Brendan's tactics so I don't hold out much hope.
Cooper seems to be getting it together at the City ground, I don't see much chance of us overturning the odds. Still we can but hope!
When we played at the King Power the gap between us was massive, 4-0 was more than reflection of that game.
My feeling is the gap has closed a bit, we have improved and they missing Maddison plus one or two others.
Most likely a score draw or maybe we can grind out another 1-0
It’s actually hard to recall if we were that bad or Fester were that good in the 4-0, regardless, I’d like to think we have improved since that debacle, my only worry is that when we concede it can still be in quick batches. Leicester were decent at times against Newcastle in the cup, but wilted quite badly in the second half, Vardy had a good chance but that apart they were second best. We were good against Wolves first half but poor second half, our problem seems to be not knowing what to do if we are leading at half time. Tomorrows game is pretty big for both teams, and so may well be a nervy affair. Chances could be at a premium so we definitely have to be clinical when we do get chances. Forest should be buzzing at the moment, carabao cup semi-finals, slight up turn in league form, and yet another Brazilian player set to sign, who’d have thought that would happen when CH was in charge. Don’t expect too many changes tomorrow, maybe Taiwo back up top and Lingard possibly on the bench. Forest 2-1 is my optimistic prediction.
Just one change to the starting 11 as Willy Bolly remains sidelined and McKenna starts in defence. Awoniyi doesn't make the squad. Mighten makes the bench after returning from his loan at the Blunts.
The usual 4-3-1-2 formation, although it might well be Scarpa rather than MGW who plays in the 10 role.
Alex Mighten returns to the bench.
Henderson
Aurier, Worrall, McKenna, Lodi
Yates, Mangala, Freuler
Johnson, Gibbs-White, Scarpa
Subs: Hennessey, Cook, Williams, Colback, O'Brien, Toffolo, Surridge, Mighten, Dennis.
That line up from Rodgers in absolute disgrace
Think it was Wednesday Mighten was at?
Shame on Boly & Awoniyi!
Excited to see how Scarpa and MGW blend
I wonder if we might snatch DJ away from Spurs in the window? He managed 13 minutes on the pitch against Pompy in the Cup, he might be ready to come back?

My bad it was the Wendies
Would love Spence back.
Williams to cover LB (where he has looked better). Spence and Aurier battling it out for the right.
Toffolo out on loan and ease Richards into the squad.
Really looking forward to Danilo coming in. Allows Freuler to play his natural position and allows us to move it forward quicker also.
Found a bar that is showing the game and no scousers demanding the Brighton game so far 🤞🏻

Our bench really highlights our mounting injuries / lack of depth. Let’s hope we have enough without changes!!
Just got in - sounds like we are playing really well again

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Sounds like he bottle 2 red cards
Sounds like it has been coming for a while.
Anyone doubting Johnson now??
MGW also paying off another chunk of his transfer fee. No doubt the Wolves fans will be telling us how bad he is again !
Great result. Another clean sheet, 13th and playing better and better. Only down side is how bad the injury to Hendo is.
So happy for Johnson 😊
20pts from 19 games is bang on par to stay up
Still feel we have plenty to improve on, but both Fullbacks and MGW are fantastic
I know Jonno scored twice, but MoM for me was Lodi. He was outstanding.
