Can anybody explain the pros and cons of p1ssing around at the back?
I can’t see any pros and far too many cons.

I don’t know why but I’ve opted for Forest v Man U so it will probably finish 0-0.

we already knocked Forest out of one cup, got done by VAR at their place and we should have beaten them in the PL

Archie Gray is a tidy little player at 18.

Would be great to see a couple of our youth players blooded into the first team squad (if good enough obviously).

Playing too many weak kids has been a major downfall this year (one especially).

Hopefully, but there’s a difference between blooding young players sensibly, and throwing them in at the deep end and watching them sink..

One of those players like Little and Robbie Blake, always felt like he had the ability to play at the top level but never seemed to really make it.

Watching the likes of Fernandes and Rashford rolling around I’m sure there could be a caption competition for what the physio is saying to them as they reckon to limp off.

A sign of age I guess when Andy Gray's son and Frank Gray's grandson are playing. And Jason Koumas's son in the other cup game. Just checked Andy Gray, he was a 1 in 5 striker throughout his career but 1 in 3 at Burnley....
