miketh2nd Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 I can't see a thread on this so thought would start one. Gerken Skuse* carey amougou Mcallister Adomah Cisse Pearson Ephraim Pitman Stead bench Ribs Kilkenny wood Bolaise James I know mad to suggest 442 against such a free scoring forest of late but honestly much rather try and score as many as them then just get thrashed. I can see the thinking of 4-5-1 just pure defending but once we let one in that will be it. With fonts out for this game still, we do not have enough quality in defence. Ideally would play pearson on the left but Kilkenny is too light weight. skuse should only play if fully fit him part of derbys goal was because skuse was rusty but then wasn't great defending by amougou by committing himself so high up the pitch.

The Casual Connoisseur Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 I'd play 4-4-1-1. Ephraim playing behind Stead, I'd also play the lad from Cardiff at Centre Back, other wise you'd be playing one of the new loanees in a position they aren't comfortable in and leaving another on the bench, seems ridiculous to me!

pongo88 Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Forest score a lot of goals so we need a team that can score as well. This means Pitman must play. IMO 442 with Adomah in his current form is too dangerous so I'd go for a stronger midfield: Gerken Ribs Carey Amougou Mcallister Foster Cisse Skuse Pearson Pitman Stead I know Foster has had some poor games. Ribs is also a bit of a risk, though he has been playing regularly recently, but he can support the attack. In truth, not many fit players.

TomRitchie'sBoots Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Derek McInnes has stressed the need to make full use of the squad over the 2 games so cannot see him using the same team in both. Therefore need to consider what team you would like out against Coventry too. Personally (and depending on fitness) I would face up Coventry with Gerken; Carey, Amagou, Fontaine, McCallister; Adomah, Skuse, Cisse, Pearson; Stead, Pitman. The question then is which of these wouldn't McInnes use/risk in both (Carey being an obvious one). How about Forest line-up of Gerken; Skuse (or Robeiro), Amagou, Keinan, McGivern; Foster, Cisse, Kilkenny, Pearson; Wood, Pitman? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crimson Crayola Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 With two games so close, the squads sure will be interesting, would love to see Joe Bryan getting some game time. Young, hard working and fearless. I would play some wild cards against forest, which hopefully will result in some hunger for those left out to play against coventry.

Jon atyeo is my dad Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 I've come up with a formation by taking in to account all the thoughts of members on the forum and have decided that this formation must be the one 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 3 So it's 8 d!ckheads in a line With 3 strikers.

Mighty Squirrel Kingdom Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Might as well pick the first eleven names who posted about this topic. I've read a few posts on Forest blogs that seem to think all they've got to do is turn up tomorrow with their boots on the right feet and they'll win. I know we've not done that well up there since Adam was a lad and we've not been (ahem) 'at our best' this season, but the over confidence coming from up there is breathtaking.

Alberts mint on his day but feel a rest could do him good, 2 games in 48 hours for a winger is not a good look. I'd also consider starting them both and giving Ephraim a free role, but again the two games in short succession might stop that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Tansley Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Gerken Skuse Keinan Amougou McCallister Cisse Foster Pearson Bryan Ephraim Stead Closer to a 442 than a 451 with Ephraim playing just in behind Stead and running beyond him with Pearson.

always hoping Posted April 6, 2012 Report Share Posted April 6, 2012 Gerken Skuse Keinan Amougou McCallister Cisse Foster Pearson Bryan Ephraim Stead Closer to a 442 than a 451 with Ephraim playing just in behind Stead and running beyond him with Pearson. Foster and Bryan provide natural width and good cover for the full backs in what will be a difficult game against an in form Forest. Can't see it myself. Expect Skuse to play in midfield to provide more stability. Del have great faith in Foster so expect him to continue holding down the Fullback position (RB for Forest) Carey had a solid game last time out so should keep the CB role.
