Might provoke a reaction from the other 2....
He is surely a bench player.
Only been on the pitch for more than an hour half a dozen times in the last 18 months.
He's not played that much because he was in prem as backup but at Watford he was brought in to replace Deeney who they thought would leave but didn't.
If he's kept himself fit then I don't see any reason for him to be only a bench player. He's a proper pro and his game is not reliant on pace, I don't see a major problem with his age.

Lolley

Krovinovic
Knockaert
Grabban
I would go with that TPL, but I too would drop Grabban. He just isnt doing the business this season, sadly
RE: Coventry City - Nottingham Forest - wassy04 - 01-02-2021
I would start Murray, will need games quickly to improve fitness and his game isn't reliant on pace. Neither Grabban or Taylor have offered much, at least it would act as a kick for them.

Part of me wants to hold off and see what Grabban can do when Krov is knocking little balls around and feeding wingers and the striker. If that starts happening then Grabban's biggest attribute, his ability to receive a ball isolated on his own and retain possession, becomes less important to the side. That's why, with Krov in the side, Taylor might begin to look like the better pick as I think he's the better natural finisher of the two. Murray for me is the 2nd striker you bring on with 20 or 30 mins to go.
RE: Coventry City - Nottingham Forest - PsychoStanleyStone - 01-02-2021
Krov and Grabban looks good to me
To be fair Grabban looks sharp, he did actually score and was actually onside
Similar the quick feet seem to be there the 1 on 1 was a disappointing finish but everything about the move prior to the execution was good
Knocky gets through 1 on 1, Grabbs had taken the defender a way though offside it happens to the best
Grabbs, Knocky and Krov all look good to me, personally, i would be happy to bring Grabbs and Knocky on to win the game in the last half hour, we have a large squad and have other players who need to be improving and getting game time
Though i think Grabbs, Knocky and Krov are probably guaranteed to start.
We should win, as in we seem more geared up to being able to be disjointed and lethargic and grind a win whereas i think Coventry are more reliant on high tempo and might be a bit tired

Unless CH is telling porkies tonight ( you never know ) Colback won’t feature.
RE: Coventry City - Nottingham Forest - Sniffer Dog (Admin) - 01-02-2021
Fair enough TPL. He was training last week but perhaps tomorrow is too early for him.
RE: Coventry City - Nottingham Forest - Strawberry Avenger - 01-02-2021
I'd be nice. But I reckon it's a bit soon. He only started training in the last week.

RE: Coventry City - Nottingham Forest - Strawberry Avenger - 01-02-2021
I would have liked to have seen Colback and Sow in the same side.
My Forest fantasy will have to wait.
