Forest currently 1-0 up at Liverpool, shows exactly why I don't agree with stuff like this... We're better than Forest, we can get something at Anfield. The idea of, essentially, throwing in the towel before the game even starts and intentionally getting our players banned because "we probably won't win anyway" doesn't sit right with me, at all.
It's not that for me. Chances are we'll finish mid-table without a cup ... ... looking back at the season, with derby wins would make it a success imo. Would you really want to see Xhaka out, for the derby, because we went for it, at Liverpool, and lost.
Just thinking we will have a fair few lads going off to the AFCON literally with free hits going into the Derby. Now I don't mean I want these lads flying in 2 footed and leaving us with 8 men after 10 mins but could certainly see a few wipeouts in injury time particularly if we are 1 up or level and someone is threatening a break away.
Odds for the weekend Sadiki 11/4 Xhaka 10/3 I’ll probably back the singles and the double. Feel like they’re coming…
Ideally Sadiki avoids 1 for the next 3 games and has a free hit in the Derby when it could be needed.
In an ideal world We desperately need both for the Derby. Their midfield 3 is their biggest strength (Joelinton, Bruno and Tonali).
Are any of those twats close to a ban? Surely Joelinton and Bruno should be they could both get 8 yellows a game and have no cause for complaint.
