Nothing to fear. Need to get at their back three as they are dog slow, and their keeper is utter shit. Our forwards should have a field day. If we stick to our new 4-3-3 formation, we give them a call to make. Do they change their 3-5-2 or will they be comfortable going man for man against us? I wouldn't be changing after last night. Let them worry about us. A draw is a better result for them than it is us. If we can get the win, we are right back in the mix.

I think their keeper getting a bit of stick but personally think he's ok despite a couple of errors lately. On a good run but expecting us to go there and get something. We've beaten better sides. Which better sides have Stoke beaten this season ? West Brom when they were the best team in the division at the time and unbeaten. Fallen apart since. Forest in form but nothing to fear.

After last night, we should justifiably be confident of getting a decent result which for me would be to come away with a point. Important not to lose but with a series of winnable fixtures coming up treading water against one of your closest rivals wouldn’t be such a bad result.

Forest fan told me they still sing about winning the European Cup (fair enough) Do we have any witty songs to pre-empt this e.g. about Cloughie or Malmö being toss opposition We still have yearly parades on the pitch from winning the League Cup 50 years ago. I think we would do the same to be honest. Malmo really were shite though.

Every chance that it could go to 3-3. Or 4-4. That’s a bore draw sorted then 0-0 😂

This could be a cracking match Think we will go 352 Maja and Brown up front However if we do go 433 it could be a right shoot out At present, I think we are better defensively with a 4-3-3. Jagielka and THB are building a good understanding. Powell, Brown, JPB and Maja should all be starting. Joe Worrall was back 3 weeks early from breaking ribs on Sunday. Good defender and brave to go with it. It won't be easy with him in the side, a do or die defender.

Needs the shithouse that is Nick Powell to give him an early elbow in the ribs then just to see if he is man or mouse? PS I've broken ribs so I know how bloody painful they are

I wonder if he Leicester would have been done for dangerous play if he’d have kicked him in the face (obviously without intent). That’s terrific defending though.

Interesting to see how they get on against Blackburn tonight.
Looking at their starting 11, it certainly is quite strong and very youthful as well.
