That will do very nicely.

Why not take the game to Chelsea, win and put relegation to bed!

Because it would be suicide and utterly naive

We have nothing to fear here.

The obligatory ‘they have nothing to play for’ team will they be on the beach or will they just play freely now there is no pressure? Will they be trying to prove they aren’t a shit team?

I mean with some of the contracts, some of them are on, how much do they care? Professional or not.

I know we have had our injury problems.
But they have got a lot out and a lot not involved as they will be surplus to requirements.
Add into they that they are sleep walking to the end of the season, and surely this is a good chance to at least get a point.

Players out
James, Chilwell, Mount, Koulibaly, Curcurella, Fofana

So just the remaining £800m worth of squad to worry about then.

For context though in the last 18 games Forest have 20 points and have score 22 goals
In the same time Chelsea have 17 points and have scored 14 goals

I dont buy this on the beach theory. Prize money increases for a higher finish so if player bonuses are linked then that might be a motivation. And i also think that players of today are decent pros and nothing like the beer swigging and fag smoking players of the past.
