New owner was straight and blunt when he employed Karanka. Promotion and play offs a must.
Karankas 4-2-3-1 formation is too defensive and will get a lot of draws.
Lack of strikers is a worry.
35 year old Murphy won't get a season.
Grabban to many injuries.
Karanka a nice guy but will be sacked before we get promotion. He's got time but not much. Feb/ march he be gone.

I think he will be gone by the end of November if the performances and results don't improve if we slip away from the top 6 he will be gone. I know it sounds mad but this owner will not mess about

I don't understand the 2 thumbs down.
Karankas 4-2-3-1 is negative.
6 defensive minded players to start with.
Colback and Watson cannot play together.
Colback and Bridcutt is what it should be with geddy been out.
35 year old main striker is a major concern as well.

Osbourne or Geddy (more dynamic and better movement) should play alongside one of Watson, Bridcutt or Colback.

And when is this manager going to just admit to himself that Forest ALWAYS look better with Cash and Osbourne in the side. Their dynamic movement and energy are important to a side who want to move the ball quickly.

We are now 3 points off the bottom, i will be surprised if he survives the weekend. He might get the international break but then the owner might use this time to bed in a new manager. Too early i hear you say? But are we moving united in the same direction??? No chance. This squad is confused and directionless. Too many good players replaced with averageness.

It depends on how you play the 4-2-3-1 formation. Having 2 holding midfielders can work because you can push your full backs higher up. The alternative way to use the holding midfielders is to have one anchor and one Pirlo style role. The issue is Watson is too focused on trying to be the anchorman because he lacks the pace to cover the full backs and isn’t looking to pass it around like Reidy used to. I think having Bridcutt and Colback can work until Geddy is back. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that our best two performances this season were when the Colback Watson combo weren’t playing.

It sounds to me like there’s a few on here wanting to predict the managers sacking before anyone else to then come on here and revel in their “I told you so”
Got to laugh at the , “ surprised if he lasts the weekend or international break “

20 players in two seasons or their abouts if he is here next season will it mean him wanting another 10
