Nottingham Forest - Sheffield United - Sniffer Dog (Admin) - 30-10-2021
To be played on Tuesday 2nd November 2021.
At the City Ground on the banks of the River Trent.
Kick off is at 19:45.
We will have to make at least one change to the starting line up because Max Lowe will not be able to play. That could also bring a change to our system.

Presume it will be Bong in for Lowe. I wonder if we will keep the back 3 or change to a flat back 4.

Stick with back 3 and see how Bong performs. Despite the abuse he gets from fans hes generally a dependable type imo. And he can stick a cross in.

Sheff Utd play a 4411, depends if we want to match up or stick with what we know. Yes Bong isnt as bad as some claim but I would prefer if he just stuck to defending rather than risk being caught out of position up the pitch.
This is a more winnable game than we might have thought at the start of the season.

Drager might come in as LWB

Exactly Pap. His defence work lets him down, but further up the pitch he is much more capable. Stick with a Back 3 and let Bong go down the flank

…….And be totally caught out when it takes him 15 minutes to run back to cover in defence.
4 at back play Bong
3 at back try Drager

Bong in and continue with a back 3 for me.

I'd bring zinc in for Lowe and play lolley at wing back. Sheff United do not have any traditional wingers so I'd be a bit more attack minded.

That's not a bad call actually Mari, I like that, providing Joe is fully over his injury issues and can last the full 90

It would be nice to think Benny Osborn is given a game against his old side and he gets a warm reception from our fans, (providing he doesnt score against us lol)

He will get a warm reception from me that is for sure. He is a danger on Tuesday night. He should get clapped and not booed.
