Powell is carrying a knock. Fletcher isn't up to full speed yet. Thompson and Clucas being injured meant that Mikel had to play one too many games. Playing your "best" team every Wed/Sat/Tue simply isn't possible over a 50+ game season especially with the amount of games coming up between now and Xmas..... I’m sure Forest won the league playing that way on ten times poor heavy muddy pitches 41 years ago. Comparing today's football with then would have been like comparing their team with one from 1938.

He's the manager in the team of the week accompanying no other than Baath as the central defensive rock.

41 years ago. Comparing today's football with then would have been like comparing their team with one from 1938. Football is football no matter what decade you play it in Footballers are far, far fitter now than they were even 20 years ago, never mind 40 years ago.
In those days you could get away with carrying a knock and/or an extra half stone in weight.
I mean, when did you last see a proper fattie in the top two divisions? Come to that, you don't see too many even in League Two or Three (Akinfenwa excepted).

Do you think footballers of today could play on pitches in the 70s and 80s , and against the players of that era , today’s footballers are shithouses and wouldn’t last 45 min

It's just that they'd do so far slower, while covering far less distance.
I mean, you've only got to look at old footage to see that...
