This is who Eddie Howe has named for today’s match with Harvey Barnes back fit.

Comment #841i hope Tonali is fit, we already have Big Joe on the sidelines so we need Sandro out there , without Big Joe and Tonali our CM is weak as piss,
Bruno and Longstaff have no pace at all , constantly getting caught on the ball, losing possession, so that leaves young Miley with the responsibility of retaining possession, if he plays.
We have home advantage against a Forest side who we beat comfortably away from home a few months ago, lets see how hungry we are today on the back of a heavy defeat at Citeh,
I want to see 100 per cent commitment today , not the half arsed attitude that i seen at the Etihad last week.
We will soon find out in a couple of hors time if the players are distracted by the Carabou cup, i hope i am proved horribly wrong and the Toon turn up.
3-1 Toon., no excuses for this one,

This is possibly the most important game this season mate, and yes i agree it would be very detrimental to our chances of success today if Tonali was also absent today mate, and specially with big Joelinton still not available. i would be very happy with a scrappy 1-0 victory today my friend.
PS I hope you had a fantastic Birthday young fella 😀
