It was a tactical change, it was either him or Wood who needed to come off for the extra CB.
No injury issues
Just watching Toffolo's interview with Colin Fray and he said that too.
Fair enough. Just hard to believe given CHO came on not long after. I suspect Elanga is carrying an injury and they don't want to publicise it to keep opposition guessing.
He isn’t carrying an injury.
He came off at HT against Villa as he was having cramps. He was then managed in training pre Everton, hence being on bench.
He had a full weeks training prior to Spurs and was fully fit.
Maybe it was just a weird sub then!

Got the impression that Dominguez was injured last night. Hope I am wrong especially with Yates being suspended for Sunday.

God, hope not.
With Yates injured, even if Dominguez is fit Nuno isn't going to be able to sub him off and replace him with Yates as he normally does. It's going to be Sangare coming on. No Williams either of course, so we're going to look pretty patched up at the end of the game if Aina isn't fit. Moreno and Toffollo at full back, both not played much, both potentially up against very good quality. Extra time would kill them both I feel.

Think he just took a knock- seem to remember him limping then running around like a mad man whilst Yates was getting ready. He is made of strong stuff!

I’d love to win this game. But I’d use the squad if we go 2 goals behind- jota, sosa and big T for example should come on and told to just run at them.
Also keeps Williams and Yates fresh for Brentford…

I'd definitely play Toffolo ahead of Moreno on the left - he earned his chance last night.
Expecting Ola to play Sunday.

Ola Aina said it was a Grade 2 Calf Tear, Usual recovery time is around 6 weeks. But with the correct treatment he could be back within 3/4 weeks. Around now. Best guess is that he is back for Brentford. But possibly Sunday. Let's see what Nuno says later.

I wouldn’t put too much stock in what Nuno says later.

Yes he will likely say we are assessing all players. Most Forest fans know him to well now haha.

Well Nuno said we have players coming back, Asked if Ola has a chance, He did say Yes but day by day still. Like Moreira. Another training session tomorrow.
