It'll be a different side we use on Sunday more than likely. Who's going to be given a rest and who will come?
 
Forest were the pace setters last season, very different story with miserable fat Ange on no wins and a league cup exit to Swansea lol.

Full team back now (minus Tino), so really expect to be winning this. Performance last night was killer, so just keep that up.
 
So we have this and then yet another international break. How are teams supposed to gel and build up a consistent run of games with these stupid internationals? I don't even give a **** about the international games any more. Just a nuisance.

I was gutted when England didn't win the world cup in 1990, these days I'm glad we don't win it as a) I don't give a **** about internationals b) the union jacks on every house **** winning would instigate would be embarrassing.

I ****ing hate it. It’ll never change, mind, and I haven’t a clue how it even could. Maybe just one tournament with seedlings? There’s 55 countries in UEFA and 200 or so in FIFA. So for the euros why not just have a knockout tournament, big countries enter at round of 32. World Cup the high seeds enter at round of 64. That’s just four or five rounds smashed out in a single summer.

International football is a waste of time. I couldn't give a toss about England personally. Last England team I cared about was 1996. I mean, it's always going to be one of the big six that will win the World Cup/ Euros.

Think it'll be:
Pope
Thiaw, Schar, Botman, Burn
Bruno, Tonali, Joelinton
Elanga, Woltemade, Gordon

Can't see the GK, front or middle 3 changing and think it's a good excuse for Howe to get Thiaw a run of games out at RB now Tino's out for a while.

Maybe Murphy in for Elanga if he's struggling with 2 games a week at Howe's intensity, Hall still on the fringes coming back from injury, Willock or Miley perhaps for a CM but I think Howe will want to start strong and make changes to keep the midfield 3 fit later.
