    Ange said the Maddison knock wasn’t too bad. Hopefully be ok for Monday. Can’t see Kulusevski playing 90mins yet.

    Slight rotation but we need to be winning games to keep pace with those around us really don't want to finish 17th, and winning does become a habit!

    Vicario, Porro, Romero, Danso, Spence, Gray, Sarr, Kulu, Johnson, Solanke and Tel.

    We really need to be giving Gray some more minutes as a DM closing out the season

    Also expecting us to sack off the Scammers match as we'll be focusing on training on a plastic pitch ahead of the away leg against Bodo and/or Glimt

    If them lot beat Ipswich, Spurs PL season is done and
    so can help the Forest CL campaign by losing the game.

    Gray at DM is a must, especially as he's fresh (and Bissouma's out the door this summer regardless of who manages us) and we've started him as a DM something like twice all season

    I'm expecting a reduced attendance, a rotated side and a negative atmosphere.
    Probably would've been better if this was on earlier in the day, too.
    Let's see if we can get a tune out of some of those that didn't play against Frankfurt.

    If we were to set up to play 'Ange Ball', with our strongest team available, there are few worse teams for us to play against than Forest. They've got the perfect game to see us off, under our current coaching set-up.

    I cannot see us winning, no matter what, but hopefully, we confuse them by going 'off script' and keep it respectable. Losing 0-2 is fine, in the position we find ourselves in. Wrap Bergvall, VdV, Solanke and Vicario in cotton wool and play some of the squad's less used options.

    That it has come to this....<wah>
