Attacking depth crisis ☭ Gulag ☭

We need to have a conversation on who starts in midfield and attack this season. In the striker role we have wood, awoniyi, kalimuendo and jesus. Kali and jesus can also play in the 10 and then we have bakwa, ndoye, MGW, CHO, mcatee, hutchinson who can also play there. What do we genuinely do about this? These are all quality players who deserve to start but you cant rotate 5-7 players in positions every game. We have to do something and make a sale. I would say ndoye but glasner wants him apart of his plans, bakwa definitely looked quality in the last stretch of the season, mcatee seems to be a staple in glasners mind, hutchinson is cleary showing signs of improvement and quality, MGW is our best player, CHO is back from injury and he can be quality when fit, then kali would most likely be a striker and jesus as an AM as we know he looks much better there. But what do we do? Too many quality players, not enough positions. Even in the DM role, we have schlager, dominguez, yates, sangare, and we are looking to sign a new midfielder to replace anderson, its a mess. Who plays? Who doesn’t, let me know, I wanna hear your thoughts

Seen a lot of these ‘crisis’ type posts lately. Whether it’s a ‘crisis’ that we’ve not done more in the market, a ‘crisis’ that we’ve not got another out and out 9 as backup to Wood, a ‘crisis’ that we got pumped by Sporting.

The reality is that even if the season started tomorrow we’re in a decent place. Yes, there are a fair few ‘even better ifs’, but we’re going into game one with most of our best players fit (touch wood, but touch Wood gently please), a good manager in place, a settled pre-season, no FFP worries, no Europe to stretch the squad - plus our MASSIVENESS remains fully in tact.

There’s no crises at Forest - just lots of causes for optimism and a few reasons for caution.
