IRST WIN new Forest keeper has a total ’mare

-

was beaten by Kyle rds when really he dn’t have been. wards jinked one way hen the other in front of and maybe Muric was hted, but his angled went under the keeper he Baggies were level. e problems f or uchi look as familiar as have for all other 13 of ’s managers in the last years. d current owner elos Marinakis is not a nt man, having got gh four in two years. st Brom’s new manager n Bilic ( left) says he needs at least three more players before the transfer window shuts on Thursday.

So many of the big earners left Albion after r last sea season’s failed bid for an instant return to the Premier r League that this is a new, cheaper refit.

But if Bilic gets luck like he e did with West st Brom’s second ond goal, he can just ust go with the players he’s got.

Matt Phillips was looking to send over a cross from right, 25 yards out, on the touchline. He didn’t hit the ball well, but, with Forest defender Jack Robinson trying to intervene, the ball looped ove over back-tracking Muric and in. Muric, 20 20, is very short o on experience.

In his two years, he has p layed Carabao Cup t ties at City, but h hasn’t played a Pre Premier League game and his only league experience was an appearance for Breda in the Dutch league last season.

But City rate him highly and are keen for him to get game time with Forest.

Muric i s rated as a potential No.1 at City and they will be interested to see how he reacts after this.

It’s an early test for the young keeper.
