Davefevs Posted July 1, 2020 Report Share Posted July 1, 2020 So City head to Robin Hood and Brian Clough territory for this evening’s crunch match. Defeat will surely end any faint hopes of playoffs, whilst a win will raise hopes exponentially. Already fans are jumping ahead with comments like “if we win tonight and Saturday we will be level with Cardiff”. This is Bristol City folks!! Forest drew their first game back versus Wednesday, before comprehensively beating Huddersfield at the weekend, and sit in 5th place on 64 points (9 above us in 12th). They played some good stuff in the process. In the Dug-out (not the Granary nor Loch Fyne): They are managed by Sabri Lamouchi, the Frenchman, formerly of Stade Rennais and Ivory Coast. As a player he had a distinguished career at the likes of Monaco, Parma, Inter and Marseille, as well as a dozen French caps (berets?). He really seems to have built a solid team, that press well and are happy to counter-attack. They have the 4th best defence in the Championship and a very settled system / line-up. The Players: Although Lamouchi might change the odd player with the heavy schedule, this team contains 10 of the 11 starters from when they played us earlier this season. GK - Brice Samba (26) - Congo born, French (u19) stopper, signed from Caen in the summer for £1.9m. A big old unit, who’s impressed me when I’ve seen him on Sky / Quest highlights. Got the knack of keeping the ball out the bet, if sometimes looking a bit cumbersome. 4 clean sheets in 11 starts. Super distribution with his left peg, appears to effortlessly stroke the ball about. RB: Matty Cash (22) - Forest youngster who’s progressed through the ranks. Lamouchi has converted him to RB, and in the modern game his experience as an attacking midfielder means he is a threat in the opponent’s final third. Got an eye for a goal too, often long distance shots. LB: Yuri Ribeiro (23) - Portugese u21 full-back, signed from Benfica in the summer for an undisclosed fee. Primarily a Benfica B player having not made a league appearance for the A side. Likes to get forward, and has a competitive streak to him. Nice left peg too. CB: Tobias Figuereido (26) - ex-Portugese u21 CB and B international, signed from Sporting in the summer of 2018 for £2m. Only just forced his way back into the team when we played them at Ashton Gate, and prefers to be the cover rather than the attacking CB alongside Worrall. CB: Joe Worrall (23) - local lad who’s had loans at Dagenham and G.Rangers before becoming first choice this season. Big, strong lad, who looks a leader, and is the one who likes to attack the ball on the deck and in the air. Good player. CM: Ben Watson (34) - very experienced midfielder who won an FA Cup winners medal with Wigan (scoring the winner too). Palace, Wigan, QPR and Watford on his CV, with close to 150 apps in the Premier League. Important to Forest in winning the ball back, and always available for the simple pass. The kind of player every team needs. CM: Ryan Yates (22) - another Nottingham lad in the squad. Started to become a regular this season and a big lad, who doesn’t seem afraid to leave his mark. Likes to get forward. Got a red card at Ashton Gate and will be a choice between him.... or AM: Brennan Johnson (19) - son of David Johnson, ex-Forest and Ipswich striker, who’s just broken into the team. Not seen anything of him, but ripped our u23s apart in August. https://www.bcfc.co.uk/news/report-u23s-1-3-nottingham-forest-u23s/ CM: Tiago Silva (27) - and now another Portugese player! Signed from Feirense in the summer for an undisclosed fee. Featured in most games this season and has 2 goals and four assists. A very talented technician who plays in a similar vain to Ruben Neves. A lot of Portugese top flight experience, and his goals record there suggests there is more to come. RW: Joe Lolley (27) - not the usual route into pro football for this player, having been released by Brum and embarked on further education, eventually finding himself at Kidderminster, before hitting the bigger time at Huddersfield, where he was linked with City. Got a very good left foot, and not afraid to shoot, often cutting in from the right. Works well with Cash, and not just from a pun point of view! LW: Sammy Ameobi (28) - younger brother of Carl Cort (old Bobby Robson joke re Shola!!) who also started at Newcastle. Probably had his best form at Bolton, before arriving in Notts on a free in the summer. Can be a bit ungainly looking, but a player who has a lot of skill and long stride to nick the ball away from defenders. Got a good left foot on him, as some of you may remember. My Dangerman tomorrow. The kind of player City fans would turn their nose up at, but is very effective, with 3 goals and 9 assists. CF: Lewis Grabban (32) - the oldest player is a young team, who appeared to have the life of a journeyman in Lg1/2, before his career took off, and big money moves from Bournemouth, Norwich and loans to Sunderland and Villa, before arriving at Forest in the summer for £6m. Top scorer with 19 goals this season, and a real threat inside the box, as well as a good link man outside it. Other Players of Note: Costos Pantillimon - giant, but erratic keeper Tyler Walker - son of Des, a player I really like who had productive scoring loans at Mansfield and Lincoln (with Morrell) Joao Carvalho - tricky Portugese forward and.... Albert Adomah - must loved by City fans, who’s maybe at the back-end of his career, but loves City back. Been on loan at Cardiff, but Forest have not allowed him to extend it. He won’t be available tonight. Jamie Paterson goes back to his old club too. Key Match-ups: With City’s line-up impossible to pick, it’s tough to look at the key mini-battles. But expecting Dasilva to start, so he will undoubtedly be facing either Lolley or Ameobi and different stages together with back-up from Cash. A strong performance from Jay may be a factor in us getting a result. I expect Ashley Williams to keep his place too, and him and Grabban will be two experienced players battling it out. Grabban not one to run off the shoulder in general play, so Williams can deal with that, but he comes alive around the box. Whoever plays up top, will need to be mobile, there will be gaps where Cash and Ribeiro have got forward. Much as I’d like to see Afobe, I think I’d start with Wells and Weimann. My City Line-up: Surely Lee must persist with 433 with little prep time from Sunday. Maenpaa / Hunt, Kalas, Williams, Dasilva / Nagy, Smith, Massengo / Weimann, Wells, Eliasson (or Afobe) LJ could bring Vyner in at RB or DM. I think DM is a massive ask for him, but at RB I’d be comfortable, he’s done it at this level for Rotherham. The front three have got to play closer together too. Prediction: 2-1 to Forest.

Fammy holding the ball up of which he is good at then flicking it through to Afobe and smashing the ball in the back of the net. Simple football might work ? Not like the LJ putting players in a role they were not destined to play in. Go back to grass roots football and let the players play on what is natural to them and I think LJ will be surprised.

mozo Posted July 1, 2020 Report Share Posted July 1, 2020 Fascinated to know how LJ approaches this. His usual instinct would be keep it tight and try to nick something on the counter.
