Ramsdale, KWP, Bednarek, ABK, Sugawara, Downes, Les, Fernandes, Dibling, Cornet, Archer. Our best team surely in a 4-2-3-1.

Russ will be patting himself on the back tonight. A job well done and a flying start to the season in his eyes.

Hasn't changed the formation though...

Ever since Stephen s adopted this "free role" at the back end of last season, we've been dreadful. There's no need for it.

The reality is we got away with it in the Championship. Teams will just press us every week in this league and we will concede huge amount of goals just like that one.

Yeah they only looked good against Cardiff because they were playing their natural game. Won't be long until that's coached out of them though.

Jesus Smallbone is horrendous, isn't he?

RM has had 3 shockers so far this season in terms of tactics/formation and player selection. Very worrying.

Armstrong, Smallbone and Aribo are all Championship players and it's so obvious.

Really need to get something from this game. Brentford and Forest are two teams who you'd expect to struggle this season, if we lose both then that's two winnable games wasted already.

Don't see why Archer couldn't play 60-70 minutes here. Had a full pre season and he's clearly a fit lad. Didn't look tired at the end against Cardiff. Coming off the back of scoring two goals, give him a start. Dibling and SAA were both knackered though.

Indeed. At the end of the day we spent £35m on him and Edozie. Monumental waste of money.

At least we are better off on paper than 2 years ago. We had a poor defence and attack then.

To put him in the shop window and prove he doesn't have a fitness issue. RM admitted that and said after the game he is our "sixth CB option".

Well I'd say he's definitely our second best centre back on ability.

Ramsdale; KWP, THB, Bednarek, Sugawara; Downes, Ugochukwu, Fernandes; AA, BBD, Archer. The team I'd like to see today. Think RM will opt for Smallbone over Les and obviously he'll play Stephens over someone else. Cornet to come into the side for AA when he's ready.

Onuachu will go to Turkey but I think ABK will stay and Martin will cast him aside. Shame really as he's potentially our best CB.

Netherlands open until Monday.

Brilliant window overall. Would've liked another striker but I guess that's being a bit greedy when SR have spent almost £110m this summer. Time for RM to show what he can do with a decent squad now.

Jesus that's not far off our transfer record and they're in League 1!

Broja going to Everton now!

Edozie deal off. Bit of a disaster that.

Looking very unlikely we will be signing a striker then given there are no links what so ever. Shame as that would've made it a very very good window indeed.

Looking doubtful Ramsdale will be signed in time to play on Saturday now.

Surely Arsenal would've spoken to Espanyol previously to get an idea if they'd budge on the release clause for Garcia? They agreed personal terms with the player weeks ago! Terrible from Arsenal and it could f*ck us up as well.
