Really don’t see the need to change the central midfield....

Early thoughts on the team I would pick...
Samba Christie Figueiredo Worrall Bong Garner Sow (Yates/Cafu) Krovinovic Knockaert Lolley Murray Smith, Jenkinson, Mbe Soh, Ribeiro, Yates (Colback), Cafu (Mighten), Ameobi (Freeman), Grabban, Taylor Maybe a bit harsh on Cafu, but I feel like we may need a proper ball winner in Sow against these, especially first half.

Results against top 7 teams this season:
Played 8 Won 0 Drawn 1 Lost 7 About time we started to balance that record with a few more points methinks. Based upon that record - a draw wouldn’t be the worst result.

Correct me if I am wrong but Bournemouth have been beaten by both Luton and Derby recently. They are nothing special.

Very true but those loses were during a shocking run for them. It seems Jason Tindall had completely lost the players. He’s gone now & Woodgate has got 2 wins from 2 (albeit a close one against Birmingham & a cup win in the week). They might not be special but this will be a tough match. Sounds like Wilshere is doing well since he’s gone back there. (Just our luck they got rid of Tindall when they did - we'd have beaten them easily with him still there. But I still think we can get a win. I live near Bournemouth so this is one of the biggest games of the season for me. YOU REDS!!!)

this is a conundrum, i want Forest to play teams off the park or work towards this wonderful cohesive utopian ideal, like 90 minutes of the move that led to our 3rd goal against Wycombe
but the default seems to be that we only win games when for large parts we are chaotic and besides sitting very deep and packing the defence generally hoofing away i think this is about getting the ugly, chaotic aspects of the game right, but don't ask me what this will look like, all i can define it as is anything other than conceding, yep, i see the best way of winning here being about packing players together and just stopping, frustrating and bruising the opposition the extremist says don't even bother with 2 wingers or any lightweight luxuries, stick a blocker in on the left in front of Bong and the only outlet probably 'goals out of nothing' Murray and maybe Knockers on the right, but i'm ok with this not happening until around an hour

They are the best side I've seen play us this season, we were lucky not to get hammered, they outclassed by a country mile in that game. We were not in the game from minute 1. Brooks ran us ragged all night long. Let's hope it's an off day for them on Saturday.

True but we are a very different proposition now. We are above them on current form.

I’d love us to continue our food form against these. For me they represent how far we have dropped. At uni I had a mate who was a cherries fan and I attended one of their great escapes in the 90s - I even think Tindall scored to stop them falling out the league. It was a great match and reminded me of being in the Trent end.
Roll on 25 odd years and they have been in the premiership and are seen a better team / club than us. Their fans have become entitled arseholes and we have become also rans of the championship. Genuinely upsets me

Really looking forward to this match ( although it’s on the dreaded sky ) and I haven’t thought that for a long time . He’s hoping .

Assume game not in doubt - with ‘tent’ and hot air blowers being employed.
Though can’t understand why a game as close as Hillsborough is postponed? |
