Nottingham Forest - Fulham

We wont win againt Fulham playing just ONE up top, MGW has often played just behind Jesus but never in a million years is he a striker. So Big T has to play with Jesus and please drop CHO as he has offered FA this season except for the odd flash. I still think that if Fulham score first it will be game over as chasing the game by Forest will open us up and they could even sneak a second. I would also play Netz as either LB or LWB dependant on the system used, at least he can get a cross into the box early and on the run with out checking back like CHO and even Hutch, give the guy a go please VP.

If you wanted to get Mcatee in, you could play 343. With MGW and Mcatee behind a striker. You'd be relying on the wing backs to create width.

I think that would make sense, however given how Mcatee has been used by Vitor so far it seems unlikely. More likely that he'd give Bakwa a start based on their respective usage!

Exactly mate.

We haven't looked like scoring or winning playing with wingers.

So why not try playing with two tens.

It can't possibly be any worse can it?

The most important thing to do is get the players that are best at shooting, in shooting positions. Based on what we've seen that is not MGW, Anderson, Hutchinson. If we do stay up we need to target midfielders that can actually shoot and also a few players that can take set pieces as we have to be the worst set piece team in the league too.

Im with Sniffer on this, try something different, Im not sure McAtee is the answer to our prayers but try something. We played essentially the same way for 28 games under 4 managers and the failings in scoring goals have been consistent.

I’ve defended Dyches record but this was his biggest fault, the stubbornness and refusal to adapt in any way. Vitor has shown at least he is willing to. The problem is this is the sort of stuff a team should be working through in pre season ,not with 10 games left in a relegation battle.

Ange was pretty different tbf. Also Vitor has moved to 3 at the back which does seem to suit MGW.

Surely, this just shows that group of attackers aren't that good?

Fine.

But play MGW and igor as two tens behind Taiwo.
Or MGW and Anderson with Dominguez stepping into the 8 role.

But to suggest that the answer to our problems is a man in a boy’s body that hasn’t even flattered to deceive under 4 different managers is, frankly, deluded.

Nay offence, like…

If we win those who are happy and posting like crazy about how we are gong down and its all "xxxx" fault - will shut up and be quiet.

If we lose, those same people will be posting like crazy.


Can only hope that Tudor is not sacked before the game against us.  Thats what we do not need.

I am not suggesting he is the answer to our problems.

No single person is the answer to our problems.

I am suggesting to try something different like McAtee and Taiwo given a prpoer chance to help the team.
