Would make sense why City let go of one of the most promising young midfielders in the game... If he's made of glass.

Lavia injured... Again. FFS.

Different types of player, though. As good as we look tonight, we're not keeping hold of the ball up top like we do with Adams up there. He can't finish his dinner, but he does that part of the game very well.

I've often watched players who I've known are too good for us, but none more so than Lavia. He is going to be a top, top, top player. Enjoy him whilst we can.

Lad is a monster.

JWP and Lavia in the middle beyond superb. Djenepo class. Mara does have something in there, though still raw. Lyanco class. Some first half that.

Diallo so frustrating. His final ball is diabolical.

Bump.

WTF is going on here.

This has to be a wind up? 🤣 Adams might be a few things, but Lazy isn't one of them.

Dafuq we watching here!? Unrecognisable.

I really like the blue kit but it looks shite with white shorts and socks. The other two are poor though. Home kit my least favourite in my lifetime.

I’d like to see Edozie tried down the right with Orsic on the left. All hinges on a new striker for me, then a possible right winger if Stu can’t get fit or Edozie not effective.

I was at Derby away where he scored his first professional goal and it really doesn't feel that long ago. Been great to follow a career like that from a big-eared kid with us. Fair play to the lad, considering he has had plenty to contend with throughout.

Bednarek with glowing reports from the Villa faithful... 😁

That really pleased me watching that today. Definitely a far nastier side to us than we've had in many years!

We at least like having a bit more steel about us, not afraid to put a boot in or play a bit dirty. We’ve been far too nice for far too long. We’re deffo a far better team in this shape today. But we knew that already and don’t think he’ll ever be able to justify why he didn’t go with it against Forest. Have enjoyed watch DCC at the back. If all fit, ABK and DCC would be might pick of the back two.

We’ll, when you’re in the pits, you need a bit of luck to go your way. We’ve certainly had our share of it today.

Looked in on my way to a game with family recent and it looked very appealing. 👍🏻

Excellent rendition of “Nathan Jones, you’re football is shit!” from the 3,500 travelling saints in that first half there.

Oh my.

Well... That, from both Paul and Adam, is about as damning as it can get.

Has he made a good impression here? He was dreadful against Coventry and hasn't pulled up any trees when he was with U23's.

I'm 100% certain he isn't going anywhere any time soon, regardless of results.

Carlisle fans were in awe of him. Think he was their Player of the Season, even. Went to Tranmere this season, but it didn't appear to quite work out, though not sure why. Looks to have enough about him to at least get to the point where he has a chance in first team. The Port Vale link you're thinking of was Thierry Small, who loaned him only to play a system he doesn't fit. His last appearance was up front. Loan was cut early. He doesn't appear to have made an overly good impression anywhere he has been, mind.
