    If you could.

    If you could have one player from the present Forest team, who would it be.

    I'll start by saying Antonio.

    Posted this on Dogs board to see which rival we all secretly admire.

    re: If you could.

    It's a tough one.

    Cohen would be a decent player in the Eustace role, but he's injured for a while just like Thorne. Thorne's twice the player Cohen is in my humble opinion, so that rules him out.

    Antonio is good, but wouldn't fit our system. He can run and beat men, but he's an individual and wouldn't suit our passing game.

    Whitbread doesn't convince me at the moment so I'd punt for a defender. I'll say Mancienne.

    Osborn, he is a Derby lad and has a bright future.

    I like their youngster Patterson too.

    no brainer if we're just looking at how to improve the team. Antonio can be unplayable.

    ahlongahschlonga wouldn't fit into our team although technically we could have him and sell him for more than Antonio...

    but purely for the team Antonio would be mustard.

    Mancienne all day long.reads the game very well and hardly puts a foot wrong,you can tell he has been taught very well as his professionalism is right up there with the best.hes my signing of the season thus far.and you do need a cb.hes cool and composed on the ball and can pick a pass.

    Admittedy I haven't seen much of the dogs this season (only the Derby game and Sheff Wed on the telly), but for me there's only one class act at the City Ground and that's porky trotters himself, Andy Reid.

    They've got a few athletes like Antonio, Assombalonga can clearly find the net, and a few defenders who are decent at this level, but the only one I can see fitting our system and bringing something extra is Reid. From the bench, obviously .

    Not conceded in 5 and we need a CB? Try again.

    I'd take Valencia or Assombalonga.

    Yeah I've always admired fatty - a very good addition. I think Landsbury is a class act too.
