Where is Giles ??????????
Sun Sep 12, 2021 12:36 pm
No Giles or Ralls.
Surprising Tomlin and Vassell are missing.
Sun Sep 12, 2021 12:37 pm
Giles injured?
Sun Sep 12, 2021 12:38 pm
Would love to know what MM sees in Bacuna that literally no one else does. With Giles out today, there is a woeful lack of creativity, so was a great opportunity to give one of the kids ago rather than again playing him out of position.
Sun Sep 12, 2021 12:38 pm
Collins needs to start taking his opportunity when Moore can't start, as Moore's fitness issues will be resolved as season goes on.
Pleased that Harris starting, thought Colwill may have played instead of Bacuna.
Need to be winning games like this.

Well it’s an interesting line up... Still quite confident for today
Sun Sep 12, 2021 12:39 pm
Hope giles not having to isolate or ralls
Sun Sep 12, 2021 12:40 pm
Giles is a massive loss!
Bacuna again
Sun Sep 12, 2021 12:41 pm
This must be the least creative side we have put on the pitch for many years and that is for a side that not very creative Common city prove us wrong
Sun Sep 12, 2021 12:45 pm
Sky sports said giles and ralla have dropped out of the sqaud
No mention of injuries i can only think its covid ffs
Sun Sep 12, 2021 12:47 pm
It's a catch you on the break line up.I'm thinking 60%+ possession for Forest today.
Sun Sep 12, 2021 12:48 pm
Forest team:
Samba, Spence, Worrall, McKenna, Lowe, Zinckernagel, Yates, Garner, Johnson, Grabban, Taylor
Subs: Horvath, Figueiredo, Mbe Soh, Colback, Carvalho, Lolley, Mighten
Sun Sep 12, 2021 12:48 pm

Perhaps McCarthy is the new Skidemin?
Losing the plot!
Sun Sep 12, 2021 12:54 pm
Playing with 2 strikers but no winger to put the crosses in
Flint hoofing it up the middle.
Sun Sep 12, 2021 12:57 pm
We need a strong performance from Valks today.Good to see Kieron Evans on bench.

Monty when a team plays with two wingbacks you don’t play with wingers as well mate.

You’ve taken the words out of my mouth.
That starting X1 is negative dull and disappointing.

Sort of agree but let's see if it does the job against a recently poor Forest...

We could do but it would mean having no central midfielders
Sun Sep 12, 2021 1:15 pm
Disappointing line up but its how we start and the tempo we set regardless who is playing. If we score first, their crowd will be on their backs.

So why do we play giles then bagan and ng have played all together
and wing backs and a winger?
Sun Sep 12, 2021 1:18 pm
It will depend on how MM uses the substitution no point on 80mins needs to be no later than 65 mins unless 2 or 3 up.....
Sun Sep 12, 2021 1:18 pm
Bacuna out injured, Bowen in.
Sun Sep 12, 2021 1:22 pm
Mick and cardiff should insist on all players have jabss ffs moore now giles

Giles plays off the striker. Sort of free role.
It’s like a 532 we play. With Giles or Bacuna off the front man.
