He only missed Wednesdays match because his missus had just had a baby. I would definitely drop Grabban and bring Murray back and would leave Ribs in the side because the goal aside, he didn't do too much wrong.
So you would drop Lolley then? That's a tough call as I think he didn't do much wrong on Wednesday. But CH clearly wants to bring Freeman in as I think he was playing him to get him fit, so what does he do?
Isn't it great how now the players have to earn the right to be in the side, rather than be an auto pick? How times have changed from a couple of months ago. Also, Yates is now fit apparently and I cant see how he gets anywhere near the starting 11. And then when Sow is fit - does he play?
Personally I think he'll stick to the side that did well on Wednesday with maybe teacher's pet Murray coming in for Grabban.
TBH Pap, If it was down to me, I would play Lolley in the starting 11, but it isn't down to me and Freeman does seem to be a bit of a favourite of CH's.
The problem though is that Mighten will drop out of the squad as a result of Freeman coming back, or will he replace Blackett?
Lolley. I felt was very candid on the interview this week. Fair play to his honesty.
It's more to do with getting Freeman fit so he can be the player we know he can be. That might be in Hughton's mind. It gives Forest more options. It makes other players compete harder when you have more quality options.
With the CM options coming back to fitness. It's going to very interesting as Yates and Sow were very forging a very good partnership. (Imagine having Yates and Sow AND Colback on the bench to come on and over power teams for the 2nd half...). However, Cafu and Garner...it's their shirt to lose after Swansea. Cafu having his best game in a Forest shirt.

Grabban not on the bench. Tyler is on the bench. Murray starts.
Yates is back. Colback, Lolley, Freeman all on the bench.

Thank christ grabban isn't anywhere near the squad. Happy that mighten gets his chance.

Shame Lolley isn't getting the opportunity to follow up quite a promising night on Wednesday. Presume it's to look after him as he rehabilitates from his condition.

I was just thinking the same thing Zico
RE: Nottingham Forest - Blackburn Rovers - ThePromisedLand - 20-02-2021
5 changes for Rovers.
Indicative of the fixture schedule.
Neither Grabban or Bong in the squad - injured? Lolley on bench - managing his workload?
Not sure we should read anything more into the changes.
RE: Nottingham Forest - Blackburn Rovers - Tricky - 20-02-2021
Has anyone seen owt of Username lately? He aint been on Predictions League again. Hope he's ok
RE: Nottingham Forest - Blackburn Rovers - Tricky - 20-02-2021
With Coventry beating Brentford, this has now put a bit more of a need into getting a positive result.
What has happened to Brentford though? Isn't that 3 in 3 lost?
RE: Nottingham Forest - Blackburn Rovers - Salvatore Matrecano - 20-02-2021
Off the line from Knockaert. Lovely skill but maybe he could have shot first time.
RE: Nottingham Forest - Blackburn Rovers - wassy04 - 20-02-2021
How has Knockaert not scored there?!
