Forest (H) build up

[Lord Knows]

Think this will be a tougher game than Saturday. Clough and Assombalonga up front could cause Batth problems. We have enough going forward though to hopefully score at least a couple against their poor defence.

I would take their two wide players Ben Brereton and Ben Osborn to Wolves in a heartbeat should Forest get relegated.

Really? Ahead of our current wide options? Plus Graham and Zyro?

I like Osborn because he can cover all options down the left hand side while Brereton is looked on as the next boy wonder.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Sign as Osborn as a left back then, I suppose.

Wing is the ONE position where we actually have some riches.

Riches for now but next season is anyones guess.

Brereton almost scored a worldy at the weekend. Amazing run but just missed the finish.

He's actually playing out of position wide right, in general he is a powerhouse centre forward who can also play down the left flank. To look at him you wouldn't think him 17 the lads a beast.

You mean just like Bod?

They call him The White Collymore at Forest, so not quite.

I think Fosun will have better things to do this summer than negotiate for four months with Fawaz. The man's a nightmare.

Osborn is tidy enough but not as good as what we have let alone what we might sign. Not seen Brereton other than brief clips.

If there's a player we want from this lot - and I don't think we want to be looking at snapping up players wholesale from a club that have been absolute shite for years - then it's clearly Assombalonga, but only on our terms.

Osborn holds the width better than what Wolves have at the moment which comes in useful particularly at home when your trying to expand the pitch. He gives you energy up and down all game and could be a possibility if Lambert wishes to continue with midfielder/full backs. Good shot on him as well.

 

[lemonjelly]

I'd be tempted by Clough to be honest, providing he's over his injury.

 

[Nando]

Sounds like Graham may be involved in some capacity.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

I think there's some kind of a reserve friendly being played tomorrow afternoon. Graham and Zyro are involved in that, not the first team game.

 

[Nando]

Ah ok. It did seem to be a bit premature as I hasn't seen him involved in any of the u23 games.

Silvio, Graham, Zyro & CBJ in the squad for the friendly. Paul Gladon has also been found and will play.

 

[Nando]

Christ I completely forgot Gladon existed. An all time great signing that one.

Believe he was found in an Italian restaurant in Tettenhall.

'On another day he puts both those shots in the stand and we go on to get a point'

All I can think of when we play Forest.
