Exactly
RE: Nottingham Forest - Bradford City - Redreg - 12-08-2021
If taylor leaves and we bring another winger in eg Rodgers is Mighten a viable option to feature more as a forward ? Sounded like his movement and tricky was goid last night and gave others space alan with him not being the natural target man did we have to play balls too feet and into apace instead ? Too many aimless punts up to Taylor Sunday for him to chuck himself on the floor .
RE: Nottingham Forest - Bradford City - Marinakis Red - 12-08-2021
I'd like to think so Redreg. Sounds like he ran them ragged last night. Just needs to polish up on his finishing.v

Well the internet has Brennan’s dad as 5ft6 so there should be no moaning about height to be effective upfront, hopefully he keeps building a bit of bulk as he gets older and there’s no reason why he can’t be a viable option

Johno's height? Never gave it much thought. He was too busy lookin'....gooooood....when he tore defenses a new goal mouth.
Ahh...him and Marlon...

Think Mighten was showing promising being converted from the Wing to the Striking position up front. He was relentless at Bradford as he was a constant thorn v Cov'.
Shades of 'Henry' going from the French wing to striker under Wenger.

Had Samba been in goal no one would be mentioning Cafu. (They would have.)
It was a foot inside the post and his wrists were made of sawdust. (oh so? He got across great to the 'right' of his goal earlier in the match for a great save. Wrists looked solid to me.)
I'm not a fan of keepers standing 'off centre', the wall was badly positioned, Cafu didn't jump for the ball. It was badly organised, sloppy and mentally 'sawdust.'
But to be fair to Horvath, he did get right across to it and just couldn't reach it. A bit more and I'm confident he'd 'ave it.
From what I saw of Horvath (and heard), he's a better keeper than Samba for me. Far more pro-active.

Ala samba on Sunday for Coventry's winner
Not ala Samba at all. Samba was beaten from the same spot. Twice. It was practically straight at him and he somehow ended up scrabbling after it.
Day and Night.

I think there is potential for Mighten to play up front if Forest are (it seems) interesting in bringing in another winger.
And we do need a striker ala brick house.
That's recruitment's job. (They're working on it. Ofc.)
To be fair to Lyle. If you give him the service Car' got last night, I think he'll bury it. Just as he did with the superb delivery from Brennan.
He's just not a back to the goal target man. Neither was Stan Collymore?

We’re arguing fine margins here but
(1) Horvath had a full hand on it
(2) Samba’s view for Chav’s second was blocked by two NFFC players when it was struck in open play
RE: Nottingham Forest - Bradford City - SSM - 12-08-2021
Samba had one deflected infront of him and the other his own players blocking his view.
I can afford him the occasional mishap anyway, he's comfortably the best 'keeper Forest have had for years.
On Mighten. He absolutely has everything needed to be a brilliant forward. I've been screaming for months/year or more we need to get him playing as the #9 at times. We've lacked someone with his lateral movement to keep centre-back's busy as well as his running off the shoulder creating a forward pass.
He may be short, but he's a very muscular lad and he is happy to operate in congested areas. He also has a nose for the goal. He's usually the person attacking the back post for pull-backs/rebounds.
