Just wanted to wish you guys good luck for tonight. Hopefully your players and play to their full potential and get you something from the game. Would be great to see you stay up as the Forest v Leicester games are always full of passion.

Thanks pal that’s very much appreciated. If we go down, then at least there will be one East Midlands club flying the flag

Well that team inspires me with…… dread.

We have clearly set up to be harder to beat but we can’t just defend deep and hope - we need Wilf and Soumare breaking up the play quickly and Tielemans picking out early balls to Nacho/Vardy.

However, the fact that Ndidi and Tielemans are in the team means I have zero hope of any of the above happening. Tielemans should be nowhere near our club never mind the team.

If only we had a Premier league goal keeper
Apparently there worth 10 points a season 🤔

Well, I guess we'll soon know whether Dean Smith is a tactical genius or a stark-raving lunatic...

Personally, I am not against Maddison and Barnes being dropped. Neither have offered anything for weeks, don't drop back to cover the defence and have the demeanor of players who know they won't be here next season. I don't think either have justified their places. Plus, Iheanacho in a front two is a definite improvement.

That said, if Maddison and Barnes are getting dropped, why the hell is Tielemans playing?! He's just about been the worst of the lot. That midfield three is absolutely honking - it's a bigger concern to me than the two players who've been dropped. Poor Papy, not sure what he's done wrong but Smith isn't giving him a look-in.

Guys, I’m not even a Leicester fan, but wishing you all the best, but even i don’t understand that team.
No Maddison, parading his talents in front of his suitors, and no Barnes.
I doubt 0-0 is possible, even that probably wouldn’t be enough, but just can’t see how are you going to win, i would have thought it would have been all out attack.
Hope I’m wrong, and certainly hope you pull it off, but it doesn’t seem you’ve the job any easier for yourselves.

Assuming it's 5-3-2 trying not to let them score and hoping we nick a goal.

Where is KDH? Not on the bench, is he injured?

posted on 22/5/23

I have yet to hear a cogent argument as to why our most competent DM is not playing

Curious - is Maddison being left out the starting XI the first recorded example of a player being dropped from playing against their parent club BEFORE they've joined them?

Which is why we won't win, 8 Games Won all Season and he's played 7 of them Fully and came on for 45 Minutes in the other.

We haven't won a single Game without KDH.

Just don't Think Maddison has the Inner Strength when it's not going his way.

I was half expecting him to get himself sent off tonight to miss the Last Home Game and avoid the fans catcalling.

5-3-2 with full backs like ours is mental. You’re giving all the space outside to Trippier, Almiron etc. As you’d expect they’ve got space everywhere out wide.

Red Card Surely?

posted on 22/5/23

This game already has the vibe of a Championship team away to a big 6 side in the third round of the FA Cup. A touch of the 'Megson away at Villa in 2007' about it so far - just lacking a couple of right backs for maximum realism. Would take a flukey, sh*thousing 1-0 though.
