When Guardiola received the Nottingham Forest starting lineup list before the game, he looked at the name in the forward line. He thought for a moment, and then asked his assistant beside him, "Is Ibišević injured too?"
Vilanova shook his head in reply, "I haven't heard any such news. All we know is that Eastwood is definitely absent from the game with an injury."
Guardiola fell into deep contemplation when he heard his most trusted assistant say this.
He really did not know why Tony Twain had brought up this completely unknown striker when Ibišević was not injured. He hadn't had any information at all on the player presented before his eyes, beyond the fact that his name was "Aaron Mitchell." And that was only because it was written on the starting list. He would not even know how tall Mitchell was until he saw him in person. Not to mention this player's technical characteristics and actual level of performance...
