Yeah no changes needed for me, if you started against Newcastle, you retain your place for Forest.

If all fit and able to start then same XI as v Newcastle. Keep that momentum going.
agree with this but feels harsh on Lo Celso after he was our standout player the previous few games. Nice to be having to leave people out again rather than go hunting for who's fit.

It's football, it happens. Lo Celso was great, but there was a synergy on Sunday with the defense, midfield and front line. Would be stupid to change that after a big win. Not only by scoreline but the nature of the performance. If Lo Celso comes in then you drop someone who was involved v Newcastle.

I think it's key to keep that momentum going with the same XI. It's partly how and why we we had such a good start to the season.

He’ll get more game time in the coming weeks, no way we will be able to keep the same 11 over Christmas without changes. Not to mention when Bissouma and Sarr go off to Afcon.

It’s a squad game now.

Lo Celso did well but Kulu did better imo.

No doubt Lo Celso is a good player but I think Ange wants players who can run all day as well. Gio is a bit laboured in his movement and definitely not quick.
Will be a difficult decision if Barca come in with a decent bid because we will need someone lined up .
Stuff in the press today that Chelsea might listen to offers for Gallagher , Ange was reportedly interested in him during the summer.
I can’t say I’m a big fan of Gallagher. He looked good at Palace but just seems to run around kicking people at Chelsea. Don’t see him as an England player either. But if Ange wants him then he will have to have him, if possible.

I’m not saying I would do it but the obvious candidate would be Johnson with Kulu shifting back to the wing. You don’t drop Richy after he got 2 goals, and you’re not dropping Sarr. I think he sticks to the same XI but injury aside it’s the only change that’s even plausible imo

No changes for me, harsh on lo Celso but its a good problem to have.

Hopefully we can go up big early and get lo Celso on with some good 30 min to play.

Got a feeling this match is gonna be closer/harder than we think, no gimmies in the prem.

they absolutely battered villa at their place so wont be easy but they have also had some poor results there against lesser sides as well. They are good on the counter though and we are vulnerable to it.

Johnson was far more effective on the right wing on Sunday than Kulu has been in recent games when he constantly cuts back on his left. Keep it the same unless forced.
