Nottingham Forest vs Chelsea (PL) Sun 25th May 16:00 GMT

United losing is a good thing going into this game. Amorim will defo now field a 'strong' team to put some pride on an awful season. For instance the odds on Brighton winning have dropped hugely because the bookies no Spurs will be in party mode. United have to get back to drawing board. I don't remember a situation like this happening for a long while. The time we beat Liverpool 2-1 and qualified for the UCL with Gronkjaer is one that comes to mind. Either way really nervous. Forest are very hard to beat at their own ground. All of Liverpool, City, Arsenal, Villa have struggled to beat them. Newcastle are the only team around the UCL places who managed to beat them at their ground.

 
Can see nothing but a Forest win here, they’re set up to exploit all our weaknesses and we don’t have a Plan B to combat it.

CHO & Elanga will have absolute field days with our full backs inverting giving them acres to exploit on the quick counters Forest have been so good at all season. Chris Wood will absolutely BULLY whoever we put at CB as well.

We’ve got a weak minded excuse ridden coach with no plan b and a team of children with no experience for big games, just look how easily we folded against Newcastle, expect the same here.

 
Hudson-Odio is going to score the goal we wrecks our CL chances, isn't he?

Only one of them plays.

 
I think we should be winning this if we are serious about competing for anything meaningful in the next couple seasons. This is the time for the boys to become men, and for the likes of Palmer to step up and take the game by the scruff of the neck. Stop the doubters from calling him a hype job who can't do it when it matters most.

 
Cant see how we win but that's mainly due to Maresca not extracting more out of this squad and that's unacceptable. It's only Forest.

To be honest, we needed to pick up more points during the easier run of fixtures we had around xmas/new years time. Not picking up points then has led us to needing a win against Forest, which is a sh*t situation to be in.

It's literally just the games against Ipswich. Win those and Champions League qualification would already been done. Even one win could have been enough. Win the away game, and Champions League qualification would be done. Win the home game, and all we would need is a draw against Forest.

Felt more confident when JT got sent off at Barca, and when Muller scored in minute 83, than I do about this. This is against all odds times a billion in terms of the feeling, because not one bone in my body thinks we can win.

This would genuinely be mind blowing. With everything we know about this team, manager, and the circumstances of away record and pressure.

 
Good to see we have additional firepower back for this game. Sancho, Nkunku and Guiu all part of the squad. This game last season was a terrific game. We won 2-3. Hopefully we can get another one tomorrow, albeit the outfit we playing this season are much better than we played last season.

 
it can’t be underestimated that we need to score first.

 
Not feeling very confident about this one. I really hope Enzo preps them properly. We know how they are going to play - park the bus, frustrate and hit us on the break.

Goals just feel abit too hard to come by.

 
There is also the possibility that Forest find the pressure too much and end up playing like sh*t.

It could go either way really but it’s abit daft to expect Forest to play at their absolute peak form.

I’m predicting a pretty dull game with one goal. Whoever scores first will win the game imo.
