So, we asked and the universe provided...Brighton went to ET and lost on penalties. Hopefully they will be feeling dejected, tired and utterly worthless after that loss.
Last Game Overview:
Despite the result, that was my most enjoyable game this season. Not many teams go to Anfield and make a go of it. First half was largely forgettable, the second half was brilliant. Definitely one for the neutrals as well!
The Good: Defensively sound, Felipe and Niakhate are monsters!
The Bad: Freuler...closely followed by Mangala. Either out of position or giving the ball away...again and again.
The Ugly: Their crossbar, it even put Johnson's finish off from going in.
Special Mention: Classy banner from our fans. Williams - can you play like that every week please mate?!
Overall Record:
Currently we stand at W16 D11 L11
Injuries / Signings:
Boly, Henderson, McKenna and Wood are all out for this one.
Aurier, Kouyate, Scarpa and Yates – unlikely.
Form:
Forest Home Form – W1 D3 L2 GF6 GA8
Brighton Away Form – W2 D3 L1 GF10 GA8
Forest are 0.3 PPG over the last ten games. Brighton are 1.8 PPG.
They'll be knackered...form...pffffft!
Team:
Navas
Williams Felipe Worrall Niakhate Lodi
Mangala Danilo ???

What a buzz it would be to see either Kouyate or Yates back for this one.
Freuler has been poor, Shelvey is awful and Colback is still not back to fitness I'd imagine.
The press and other supporters bang on about all our signings...but can you imagine where we'd be if we had only signed ten or so?
It'd be all kids! Derby knows how that one works out!
Prediction:
This is the time to play Brighton. We've been playing the best football of the season imo...just a shame it has coincided with playing six of the top seven in the last ten games!
This should be treated as a Cup Final....three points here and we should only need six more from Southampton (H) and Brentford, Chelsea and Palace (all Away). That is 100% doable....let's give ourselves some breathing space and most importantly confidence!!!
3-1 to Forest!
COYRs!!!

That’s one of the best wins in our history. Massive fight back and showed so much fight. I just hope we can build on it. Maybe nick a point on Saturday and get some momentum

😂😂 for sure
One of the best wins but clearly not the best. Mainly cause of the position we are in and the run we have had. Massive result.
