Irons changes on the cards at Forest

David Moyes will probably be tempted to ring the changes for the trip to Forest at the weekend after a less than mediocre performance by the team against Man City.

With what will become a rare opportunity to get a full week’s training into the squad we can only hope that the team is now “ready” given his comments that they weren’t before the first game.

Doubts still exist over Craig Dawson although he may be ready but we are unlikely to see Angelo Ogbonna in action according to the boss after spending most of last season recovering from his injury against Liverpool in the November.

This probably means that we will see Ben Johnson remain alongside Kurt Zouma at central defence although in front of them Tomas Soucek’s form has been such that it would be more than interesting to see Conor Coventry given an opportunity with Flynn Downes also needing more tome according to the boss.

It seem certain that Maxwel Cornet will come in – probably for Manuu Lanzini or Pablo Fornals – although the Spaniard had a particularly poor game last weekend and may be excluded. Gianluca Scamacca looks a certain starter.

Possible starting eleven: Fabianski, Coufal, Johnson, Zouma, Cresswell; Rice, Coventry; Lanzini, Cornet, Bowen, Scamacca
