Trust the plan and steady the squad. Cooper keeps the plan and talks the squad through it. Chris Cohen settles the room; Matt Fryatt points out that a photo cannot play the match.
Next 3 matches: fewer distractions tighten the defence, though Forest create slightly less.MD 32 · The hotel breakfast
Speak to the hotel about quantities. Cooper asks the hotel for a bigger breakfast order. Matt Fryatt and Costel Pantilimon have enough food for the away day.
Next match: fresher legs. Following 2: a small preparation cost.MD 46 · The owner finds a microphone
Take the heat publicly. Cooper answers the owner's comments himself and backs Matt Fryatt. The squad gets a lift, but the cameras stay close.
Second leg: a lift in confidence, with some risk of losing focus.MD 46 · The far-post corner gamble
Load the box for set pieces. Cooper sends Matt Fryatt and more shirts towards the far post. Forest threaten from dead balls, with fewer players guarding the counter.
Wembley: more chances to score, but more space for the opposition.
