Unfortunately, if we're too open we could lose it in the first 30 minutes as well. The selections of Turton or Pipa, Colwill or Sarr, Thomas or Holmes and Ward or Rhodes will probably decide how we set up. I suspect Carlos will select the first names I've shown if possible. Ward & Thomas would allow us to attack quicker, without them from the start we will have to be much more compact. Think Sheff Utd set the blueprint in the second leg. If we sit back and try and counter then we'll lose. Can't afford to rely on backs to the wall defending and taking a chance. That’s been the way we’ve beat teams all season |

I can take losing as long as we have a go. A negative set-up could see the game gone in 30 mins. Into 'em early Town I don't think there's many games this season where we could be accused of having a negative setup. Pragmatic, definitely....but not negative. I don't know how is going to be best to approach the game on Saturday but evidence shows that Carlos and his team get it right more often than not. I didn’t know there was a dress rehearsal? 😉 |

Sheff utd went at them in second leg they looked Shakey at back and with sorbas delivery early goal could just set us up just don't give them room behind. Also I'd like us to have 3 in midfield and take control

If he feels set pieces are a good source of goals and defensively minded it could be something like this.... Nicholls Thomas Lees Sarr Colwill Toff Hogg O'Brien Russell/Holmes Sinani Rhodes/Ward |

That’s been the way we’ve beat teams all season We also played that way at Forest in the cup and it could've been 4 or 5. I'm not trying to knock Carlos as he's done absolute miracles this year. Just think if we set up like we did in our last match against Luton then it could be a long day. We also looked like a different team when Sorba came on so fuck knows 😂 |

Admittedly they were better after and deserved winners but it wasn’t all bad. Sure Carlos has a plan |

I can't stand the stuff. The pub I've recommended in London had a Timothy Taylor's "Dark" on as guest beer a couple of week's ago, and that suits me just fine. Noooan bothered wot them southern shandy suppers think anyroad.. Us terriers know.. This team is going up.. 🍻 |

God some panickers on here. We’ll tank these lot by a couple all the pressure on them and they’ll bottle it as they did at Bournemouth and nearly did at home to SU
Worrying about our cup game with half a side out and someone earlier taking Worrall up like he’s the championship Van Dijk - he couldn’t lace Colwill’s boots

What strangely makes me think we’ll have a decent chance is Chris Wilder (when we played Middlesbrough)
said that he couldn’t plan how to play us because he had no idea how we’d set up. That we always set up differently.
CC with his uniqueness might upset the apple cart 🤞🤞

Bring on the Forest ! Ignore the Draw/AET options....can't seem to delete them Love how a week in, there are votes for the nonsensical options but none for Town losing on pens... Hopefully not an omen, we've no Löwe and Schindler this time around! |

Im torn. I think we need 3 in the middle and 3 at the back. I like Hogg behind Russell i think it frees up both of them to focus on what theyre best at and i really like Holmes and O Brien carrying the ball forward and breaking the lines.
So for me the team should be
Nicholls
Toff Lees Hogg Colwill Thomas
O Brien. Russell. Holmes
Ward. Sinani.
If we are defending a lead chuck Turton and Sarr on.
If we need to chase the game Tino, Rhodes and Pipa.
Nerves are kicking in now ..i really think we can do this.

Bottom line - there is no pressure on Town whatsoever. 3rd place finish and the fantastic season they have had is beyond all expectations.
Super hype around Forest can play havoc with peoples minds. The pressure is all on them to perform and win now. We have all seen in the past how this can get to players in any sport.
Carlos will be cool calm and collected "Listen boys - just play to your best and see where it goes - if we win , we win but the world will still revolve tomorrow. If we lose we lose , I am here next season and we will give it another shot "
Cooper "This lot are here for the taking - the whole fotballing world is watching - dont spack this up"
50/50 when it kicks off and if Town play as well as they can and give it their best then we have a great chance of winning the game.
