I really hope we have seen the end of the period playing poorly and lose points against low rated teams and that we will win this with 4-6 goals  😁

6-4 win it  is!

Ref: Chris Kavanagh

VAR: Jarred Gillett

Why not Michael Oliver? I'm beginning to miss him ...

With the next 4 league games after this being pretty horrible, we could really do with 3 points here.

1-0, 5-0, 9-8, whatever it takes. 

Win this and we go into the international break on a real high and a great run of form. We don’t really want the international break though, because of the form we’re on we just want to keep going and playing more.

All I hope is no injuries and a full and fit squad ready to hit the run of tricky fixtures. I think the 6 league matches after the international break will tell us where we really are. Stay in the top 4 after those matches and I’ll no longer be cautiously optimistic but very excited.

Need to get through this match first and whilst I’m excited about it, I’m still not quite back to expecting to win with our Chelsea!

Buzzing to be going to this game, I am absolutely infatuated with Palmer at the moment. Over the years "going to the game" has always been about the travel routine, the atmosphere and winning the game for me.

But this time. It's all about Palmer, I want to see magic from him.

Our opposition in those games will be more afraid than us I reckon. We're not the walkover of previous years.

Oh, don't get me wrong, they wont be looking forward to playing us either, but those games will be a much tougher test.

beat Forest and pick up circa 6 or 7 points from the next 4 and I'll be well chuffed.

I'm expecting wins in the home games and United away.

Liverpool away I can't call, I'll take a point there.

If we win at home to Newcastle and Arsenal and win at OT, then even if we lose at Anfield, we'll we be in an excellent position 

I would 100% take that 

International break schminternational break. 

Carsley is already talking about playing Palmer as a left back 

 Cole. Pretend to be dead. Please. 

I think they'll all be close. You can't win the league before Christmas, but you can lose it. I wonder if ETH will still be at Man Utd.

We will NOT lose at Anfield.

I'll go wash my mouth as well 👏🌞😁

Absolutely, @asvaberg - talking carbolics like that.

Looks like there’s a few seats to replace before Sundays game.

We may well score 5 or 6, but we will concede one for every 2 we score. Our back 5 is generous that way.

I'd be amazed by a victory over Arsenal, but our attack against their defence is quite the match up  ... and what a reversal that is!

United are dogshit but we love giving them something.

We like to keep it exciting for the neutrals (apparently).

This Chelsea team against Keegan's Newcastle would have been fun to watch! I'd have put a few quid on a 10-10 draw.

I can actually see Neto start for this one. Forest are going to camp on their half and that’s not Madueke’s game. Whereas I think this would be perfect for Neto

Don't forget the obligatory three in the net for one on the score board game algorithm.

Put your house on a CHO goal.

No, he’ll be gone, RVN will have just taken over and we’ll have to deal with the new manager bounce and headlines of ‘Ruud is at the wheel’.
