Because without Sanchez we would have lost inside 90 minutes v United. Multiple world class saves to keep us in it.
His distribution was fine apart from a few dodgy long balls that sailed over Solly and out of play.
That's fine, but the no.2 keeper gets the cup games. For Steele to be demoted from starting AND miss the semi final when he has also been excellent would have been more harsh imho.

Think Julio is too lightweight to play up top by himself, could well be a false nine.
My thinking too. I love Julio and his boundless energy and hunger for goals, but if Forest sit back, I don't know if he'll be able to battle through them.

On the other hand, Forest might come at us instead. They are perilously close to being doomed and they might just decide it's now or never. They probably should.

NF are one of the worst teams to ever play in the PL anything but a thrashing would be poor outcome.
Find myself feeling a touch uneasy about this sort of sentiment.

Can guarantee someone on another board said something like this about a, then, recently promoted Brighton side.

I'm thinking the exact opposite. Young kids trying outrageous flicks and skills around your area, rather than big lads trying to batter their way through :shrug:

I'm slightly more optimistic now I see Enciso and Buonanotte in the first XI.

Reckon some of the older legs might struggle - youthful stamina is exactly what we need.
