There was one line on the Forest website's round-up of players on international duty and it didn't even mention that Aina had gone off injured. Just that he'd 'taken part' in the match against South Africa.
Yeah, for about twelve minutes.

Because he will need to be assessed.
Hopefully it was just an impact dead leg in his hammy

This is a tough start for Ange, but I'm excited that we're likely to play more attack-minded football.

With Ange's Spurs connection and what I saw against West Ham I believe we have a better chance in this game than we did with Nuno.
I stopped using the term free hit last season because we couldn't not get points in 12 or so games but given the circumstances this is a proper free hit. Worst case we lose but get a game to be right before 3 very winnable fixtures.

Yes we will definitely have a go at the Emirates this time unlike previous seasons where we have just rolled over.
Panic on the streets of Croydon, Derby, Sheffield, Leicestershire.

If the team go there and try to play Angeball after one training session then they'll get absolutely tonked.

What I hope to see Saturday is a very similar set up, with maybe just a couple of changes in personal because of int’l duties and the players told to go out and express themselves. They proved they can play a more progressive style against Brentford and although I appreciate Brentford were poor, that is the way I personally think Ange will want us to be like. So less high line as feared by many but more defending and pressing from the front as opposed to letting the opposition come at us. He doesn’t need to change much just more mentality than anything imho.

That'd be a pretty bold line-up for Arsenal away.

Be interesting to see if he prefers Igor Jesus over Taiwo. Jesus may turn out to be a great signing but we have a small sample size and Nuno never trusted big t. Also big for Yates.
