It’s he or carmo

Carmo is 6’4 morato 6’2 and Murillo 6’0, so just about same height as milenkovic

I'm beginning to wonder what EM would do with Murillo if Forest qualified for Champions League. Would he sell or offer a new contract?

If he is happy to play a season of Champions League with Forest, would they take it, or the cash?

Just enjoy Murillo while we can.

What will be will be.

Great to see Danilo back today.

Sosa looks like he has goals in him.

Very happy with our back up keeper too. Tough first year for him but it is what it is. Fair play to him he looks solid.

Agree with Sosa, he looks like a threat but like someone said elsewhere he needs a bit of adapting with regards to not diving  :Laugh:

Sorry I don’t agree on Sosa. Just my opinion don’t think he is better than 2nd choice back up, Too lightweight and not enough skill to make up for it.
Not saying he is terrible at all, just the level we have unexpectedly risen to this season, I don’t think he is there with the rest of them.

The diving is annoying but he is far from the only one so won’t dig him out for it. Genuinely if I was manager I would be issuing fines for any of my players throwing themselves to the ground. Wish there was someone strong enough to start doing just that.

Welcome back Danilo by the way, now this lad does have potential IMO.

Sosa looks to have superb balance and (most of the time) control.  I think he lacked physicality, but hopefully that will come. I wonder about his concentration as he occasionally mis-controls a really straight forward pass, but I do think he has alot potential.

Danilo however, as I have previously said, has the potential to be top top class. Even today he looked like he'd never been away.   I suppose it's about levels.

For all Sosa's flaws he got an assist and a goal today. Job done.

Think Sosa is trying a bit too hard at the moment- some of his short passing is rushed and bounced, off the floor with the outside of his foot. He’ll settle and he likely needs a bit of a run… does he speak English yet?

I think he is a bit more of a finesse player rather than Jota’s rough and ready style… Jota possibly does more wrong but it is counted by doing more right that we all like to see

Reported from an interview with a Brazilian TV channel.

Murillo said on Brazilian TV: “It’s an objective that we’ve seen can be achieved due to the potential, the day-to-day life that we live, the results as well that the team are managing to get. We see also the achievements are surreal so we see this as an objective.

“We have six wins and one draw from our last seven matches, we are undefeated. So let’s work. We will love hearing the Champions League music at the City Ground, our club has already won two and it would be an honour to compete in the Champions League.

I think Sosa is too lightweight for the PL.

Impact player coming on as sub but not a starter, yet. He needs to beef up and train hard and it might all come good. Young so he has a chance.

Danilo , Anderson and MGW could be an incredible midfield 3 by the way . Energy ,pace, ball carrying Aggression, passing ability , dribbling , flair and Goals exciting. All 3 have huge potential.
