Premier League Match Thread: Luton Town Vs Nottingham Forest, sponsored by peace, love and harmony on this forum

Sorry slightly different subject but just watched another VAR joke on the wolves Coventry cup tie. They spent 5 mins trying to rule out a Coventry goal for handball. It was impossible to tell from any picture whether it hit the strikers arm or not as it passed him into the net. It’s absolutely ruining football. The fans were singing F**k Var after about 3 mins of waiting for a decision.

This is what should be pinned up in our dressing room right now

Should have played us instead. It would have been waved through on a perfunctory look even if he'd punched it in the net

It's not wrong though, is it?

It's totally wrong.

Chong from Birmingham, Ogbene from Rotherham, Barkley from Nice. How are these any less mercenary?

You watch Yates, or MGW or Williams or Dominguez or Murillo or Toffolo and tell me they are mercenaries and it doesn't matter to them.

 

[in_the_top_one]

I think he might pick Wood.
Only ten mins to find out.

You can add CHO and Elanga. And Wood.

Wolves player kicks a Coventry player in the face leaving a little bruise on his nose.
VAR
Nothing.

Don't understand.

Well 11 mercenaries is wrong, but we definitely have them.

And do you imagine Ross Barkley is renewing his contract with Luton if a better offer comes in?

Awoniyi out "for weeks". Need to sell, just can't rely on him being fit for more than a handful of games. He's had about 7 games of actual fitness all season. It's possible we never see him play again.

Sangare and Yates as DCMs

Mpanzu in midfield is the only surprise for them. Chong starts as expected.

 

[weejockmcplop]

Juts a generally underwhelming lineup that.

There was a rumour he broke down in training this week.

Why?
Apart from CHO for origi what more could he do?

 

[Will.NFFC]

Awoniyi an absolute waste of space. Sadly Woods injury record is just as bad

 

[BlackGold]

No Awoniyi

 

[redfromitaly]

Wonder what happened to Nuno who has lost the plot in recent weeks with some questionable and weird XI

 

[AdebolaCornflakes]

Dominguez and CHO on the bench. Nuno is losing the plot.

 

[finbar70]

On paper he's fucked the line up again. Let's see how it plays out

Not saying there's much more he could do. I'm just looking at it thinking Christ we're actually not going to win this game.
