mozo Posted October 3, 2020 Report Share Posted October 3, 2020 Really doesn't look good for Nagy. Must be engineering a move now? Link to comment
old_eastender Posted October 3, 2020 Report Share Posted October 3, 2020 Sill find it odd not to have either Massengo or Nagy on the bench, in case Bakinson gets a knock or simply needs help from another true CM Link to comment

You leave it alone and only change things if performances of individuals drop or suspensions/injuries dictate That way, every player knows that if you perform then you will keep the shirt if you don’t then there are others waiting to step in and take your place Link to comment

Davefevs Posted October 3, 2020 Report Share Posted October 3, 2020 Forest: conventional 4231 Samba Christie | Mbe Soh | Blackett | Ioannou (debut) Colback | Arter Ameobi | Freeman | Mighten Grabban Ameobi and Mighten could play either side. No Scott McKenna after last week's debut....Blackett moves from LB to LCB....Nikolas Ioannou in for his debut at LB. Samba Soh / Lyle Taylor dropped to bench, no Joe Lolley. Link to comment

When asked about Nagy and Massengo Deano said (paraphrased) “like all players they have to impress in training to force themselves into the coaches thinking” That applies to the entire squad so it’ll be up to the returning players to do just that.

ashton_fan Posted October 3, 2020 Report Share Posted October 3, 2020 This game could be a right banana skin. If teams on a bad run get in front they can become transformed from the worst to the best, I've seen it happen so many times watching City. With Stroud as the ref he only need to gift them a penalty or show a red card to one of our players early and we'll have an uphill battle. If we can start well though and put an early goal in we should be ok. Link to comment
cityexile Posted October 3, 2020 Report Share Posted October 3, 2020 Forest fans will I am sure be delighted that Derby have just won at Norwich, with Rooney curling in a late free kick. Does highlight against putting too much weight on a team losing the first three. Looking at the Forest line up man for man they look strong. Hopefully they continue to fail to click as a team.

Things really have changed at AG............. Bit harsh on LJ. He like most managers would keep playing the same team during a winning run. The challenge which LJ struggled with was when those winning runs came to end either through opposing teams sussing out the winning run reasons and countering them or players getting injured how to change tactics and personal and get back winning again. DH's first big challenge will be when we taste maybe a couple of back to back defeats how quickly he and his coaching staff can get the team back on track. Hopefully that challenge won't start today.

Sandhurst Red Posted October 3, 2020 Report Share Posted October 3, 2020 The weather is atrocious right now at the City Ground. Will definitely have an impact on our game, and likely to disrupt our quick passing style. A slog of a game is on with a keeper mistake almost certain. Link to comment

Mr Popodopolous Posted October 3, 2020 Report Share Posted October 3, 2020 O'Dowda on the bench? Back from injury/at least recovering or shop window? One out of Nagy, Massengo and to a lesser extent Palmer on the bench would feel prudent IMO, injuries always a risk, or tweaks to shape in midfield are always potentially necessary too.
