He was very good, but that tackle was very naive. You cannot scissor tackle someone from behind when on a booking.

Yeah it was beyond stupid.
You can’t completely take somebody’s legs even if you win the ball and expect not to be punished.
Naive really.

Gives us control from midfield, a priceless commodity. Looks a gem already, hope him and Niakhate are fully fit from Jan onwards, would make a massive difference. Another couple of quality signings and we should be fine.

Cooper's post match interview said "setbacks" so his injury he got likely kept reappearing, plus fitness issues kept him out.
Thankfully we have 1 game now until December 19th (week of) so he has plenty of rehab and fitness time.

Mangala, LOB & Yates/Kouyate looks the right mix to me. They aint always getting that space to work, but we looked a different level to the over cautious midfield of late.
Mangalas second yellow was f***ing stupid all the same.

It was daft of him as you say H, but I genuinely think there was also an element of over-enthusiasm in the challenge, possibly having been out for so long.

Given what happened back in August, do you think Mangala does that (especially the nature of the tackle) if that's not Richarlison?
I am not so sure. He is a committed lad, and I have seen him before, taking things into his own hands if a team-mate has (for example) been clattered by someone from the opposing side, when he played for my local side.

It's all about mid-table...
If he plays that midfield against Palace and it guz tits up, we'll have to talk about yet another formation mate.
It's a constant theme.

As it was against Richarlison, I'll allow it.

Yeah that was great.
I don't know how many players in our team could have found that pass.
Frankly, Richarlison should have been booked for being a massive wanker, instead.

People can have their preferences on the 3 in midfield, but I think it's clear we have 5 very gifted CM's & certainly the best bunch in my lifetime of watching Forest.
I wouldn't grumble if any selection of the 5 started.

Which is why you should have loaned the sixth one to us.
No, not the seventh one, the sixth one.

No, now not really. But in late August we badly needed a couple of midfielders and a left back

So with Kouyate out, what do people think, Mangala or O'Brien?
Is there another way we can configure the midfield so both play?
Does Colback have a role to play?

I think Mangala - Freuler - Yates will be our best 3 anyway, interested to see how they will do together

Really hoping Mangala can get his season going now-been unlucky with injuries, then was suspended then a winter World Cup!! He’s hopefully going to allow us to have better ball retention and he is very comfortable receiving the ball from the keeper/defense even under pressure and starting attacks. Played so well in cup match v spurs and Cooper said they are so excited about this lad.
