Match Thread | Notts Forest vs. Manchester City (27/12/25)

[Lowtower]

Half time interviews are back

Rubes should tell her to fuck off

 

[Haaland94]

So many shitting on Rejinders, he has done no worse than Phil Foden today. No need for hate.

 

[ninjamonkey]

Pretty decent rearguard display despite being too weak in the long balls, dreadful attack, not had a single opportunity. Cherki completely anonymous, reijnders almost as anonymous. Foden has been okay, nothing more. They've given us the width knowing we have none. If we are actually going to use it, savinho might make an impact here, getting him out wide and have him put balls in might be the only way of creating anything here. Another 45 like that and we're getting beat, they'll score if that continues.

 

[borassic]

Pep is a mad head isn’t he, played our best football by far this season with Foden and Cherki close to each other and he splits them up to try and accommodate Reijnders who has been very underwhelming.!

 

[heslops barnet]

We have fuck all to bring on

Who’ll change the game

 

[thyer64]

Reindeers dismal.

Nico and Bernie no presence there

Don’t even see many solutions on the bench aside from Savinho and a rusty rodri

 

[axlgod]

I absolutely hate ht interviews with players or managers.
Just let them get in changing room for fuck sake.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

And in game split screen analysis can fuck off.

And the half-time players interview.

Get in the fucking bin!!!

 

[Ajm1985]

No creativity at all, Foden may as well be taken off he, is being destroyed by Pep trying to make him something he will never be.
No width only a pass backs from the fullbacks we are playing shite and it feels like the system.

Foden who has looked in excellent form in the past month, scoring 6 goals? That one is being destroyed by Pep?

 

[burning blue soul]

Playing in a Dyche team must be soul Destroying.

Foden still looks for the ball. Reijnders doesn’t sadly. Agree both shite so far

 

[Berti No Show]

I don’t think we played badly at all. We controlled large spells of the game and played some really good football, right up until the final action where it just didn’t quite come off. Defensively, we worked as a unit and we’re far more solid now than we were a few weeks ago, and that’s clear to see. Credit has to go to Forest as well, they've battled for everything, pressed aggressively, and made it a really tough contest. One of those games where you have to dig in.

 

[phargrave]

Only positive is it's still 0-0

Bet your fun at parties….

 

[Eaststander1]

C'mon Pep, sort this out ... the game, and scoreline suits Forest down to the ground at the moment.

Foden gets a pass because Doku being out is forcing him to play differently. He’s been fine.

 

[Gundoggin]

So many people on here giving out about Dyche and his tactics, It's up to us to break them down, have some creativity and also have fight.

We don't have any of that today, we're losing every ball and every second ball.

We need to get our act together and not let this game get away from us.

1 nil and 3 points will do perfectly.

 

[phargrave]

Surprised I.Jesus didn't fall to the ground walking back to dressing room at halftime

Hit the deck more times than Jake Paul

Foden has got plenty of credit in the bank. We've seen him turn it on season after season.

Reijnders has been very underwhelming since his time here.

 

[wattle]

I’ll take that

I meant for them lol

 

[Ric]

Losing the physical battle here, albeit not helped by the referee. Hard to see us winning this at the moment, unless we get a moment of magic from Cherki or Foden. Very few options on the bench to change things either.
