Hooper protecting Boly.

Fat ****

 

[Tuearts right boot]

Just hit it ffs.

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

Haaland looking sharp.

 

[Brightwell Bros.]

Is the famous ferocious atmosphere that we being warned against? They've been shite.

 

[lonestay]

That's what we haven't seen for awhile Erl getting the ball and running at a defence, good to see it again .

 

[jimharri]

Meanwhile, somewhere in north London....

 

[Eoiyflem]

Playing dog shit and leading 2-0 after that debacle in north London earlier. You can't coach that mentality.

 

[Blu1]

Kova totally changed our midfield

 

[Ghostofmerlin]

Doesn't he have two assists?

Yeah. Thats why he’s still one of the best. Has given up the ball quite a bit in the midfield today, though. Just a bit off for him.

 

[MMA]

Haaland doing well when he drops deeper

Yep.
That's what he was doing last season.
He was everywhere.

 

[hertsblue]

Look forward to reading Forests statement later on the officiating with Boly mot getting a card

 

[Dr Jacoby]

This is the brightest Haaland has looked all season. Looks better when he’s not stagnant.

 

[MeatnSpudsMCFC]

Haaland doing well when he drops deeper

It’s satisfying to watch when he runs at players. Rather he did it more frequently.

 

[Keeper!]

no better team in the world at killing a game

 

[I'm Blue]

Erling absolutely loves running at defenders in space.

I do wish we could make that happen for him a bit more.

David Silva would’ve got him so many match balls he’d have needed an extension ; )

 

[Blu1]

Playing dog shit and leading 2-0 after that debacle in north London earlier. You can't coach that mentality.

Good point. That result from earlier would be on players minds. Not a great performance but mentally superb

 

[Metal Biker]

Dare I say it but it looks like Forest have punched themselves out.

Meh about the same performances of most teams, usually. They go steaming out of the blocks for the first half, lose steam halfway through the second and City bag another win.

 

[youngbob]

Haaland and Ake can share MOTM for me.

 

[Blueknows]

Look a lot more in control since Erling came.on

 

[TinFoilHat]

Fascinating watching Erling leading defenders on a goose chase leading to space opening up to control the game.
