It won't surprise me if Forest cause us problems. I don't like the lack of pace in our full back positions.
You're right though a win is needed at this point, because Brighton away will be tough.

Pre season I said we'd finish top 8. Yes, we may have spent a lot, but so have many other clubs. We have the CL games to contend with and all that Isak nonsense totally disrupted our pre-season prep. I know some just assume we should be top 4 every year, but I still think top 8 will be a challenge this season as there are lots of good teams.
I would be very happy with 5/6 to 8th but any lower I would feel is a poor season. But with champions league it’s tough.
We're not far away, but this summer if we fail to get the champions league we'll see another big exit or two and then go from there.
Things are likely to get worse before it's gets better.
Tonali is the one we need to keep. He’s arguably the best player at the club.
He'll go as soon as the opportunity arrives unfortunately. The Isak situation has reminded us that we're still food for the big clubs.
The thing is people keep carrying on like players aren't replacable, but they always are.
another early start

I think we'll learn from the Isak fiasco. All clubs sell big players at some point, so it's then about how you deal with it and use the funds to help improve the club. I think we'll be better placed to do that more effectively now.

This is why you're not the manager.
I think upgrades on these players would be the final step towards the big clubs.
Err yeah they can be improved upon, but that could be said about players in any team in the world apart from Real Madrid, Bayern, PSG, City and a few others.
Burn was player of the year last season, Murphy had the season of his life last season, Gordon is scoring for fun at the moment, and Barnes scored within 5 minutes of coming on it the last game.
You've weirdly lumped Willock in amongst our main players.

Good 11 but it's a shame we're going to have to have to go through the burn at left back nightmare again over the coming months

All those players with the exception of Gordon need replacing without a shadow of doubt.. Gordon is the only one that's in a way questionable
