Juicy.

Spence waiting to be announced?  EFL taking their time?

*Edit. Spence has arrived. I think we'll see a Hughton side pretty close to this.

I think re the direct style of Cardiff, Hughton will play Yates instead of Ojeda, maybe Taylor for Grabban.

Agree, Ojeda will never have watched a championship game in his life. Unless he comes in and smashes it in training then he should be benched and introduced carefully.

Yates is a muck and nettles player.  So will be well suited to the Cardiff game.  Garner can get stuck in too.  Not shy of winning the ball.

But those SA players are very robust? (He may not be up to the pace of Championship football but I'm guessing he's quite wiry.). Oj' might come on as Yates tires.

Yates can head it and kick it.  And his passing is coming on a bit.

With the new options at his disposal we'll see how Forest line up vs 'head it goals' specialists Cardiff. Like to see Worrall and McKenna get a headed goal for this one. You've got Yates, Mckenna and Worrall. One of those three should be getting their head on it.

Agreed. Don't think he will play nor should he just yet.

Garner and Yates for me against Cardiff.

Ojeda wont be able to play anyway, he'll have to isolate for a little while.

Suspect we wont see him playing til approaching October sometime.

If everyone is fit, and considering Hughton favouring 4231

Wouldn’t surprise me in Spence played against Cardiff.

He won’t be able to play against Boro in the following midweek, so I would imagine Tutu will come in for that.

Playing twice in 4 days after a hamstring is asking for trouble

Yeah that's a good point I hadn't considered.  Could well end up being the case.

Ojeda is on international duty till 10th Sept, will have to isolate, then has to report back for international duty for 5th Oct, might get to see him play 1 game, in a month, that's the only down side to him signing
