Nottingham Forest (A) | PL | Post Match Thread

All of our attacking players except Haaland offers little to no goal threat. Makes us very easy to play against. Hopefully the club realise they cant have players like Doku and Savinho starting regularly when fit. We need wingers that offers at least twice as many goals & assists, preferably much more than that.
 
This season is absolutely fucking shit.

We are way below the standard we expect. No excuses in summer, spend, spend, spend.

Bernardo offers nothing, hasn’t done for a long time. Too weak, too slow, no goal threat.
 
Team appears to be treading water, with many knowing time is up.

Need 115 off our back.
A clear out.
Influx of quality ( want to hear we buy success again).
Pep to get himself angry and embarrassed with what’s happened this year and have the desire to put in right or shake khaldoons hand and say goodbye (good chance of latter I reckon).
New style of play.

Think pg's personal life is effecting his decisions .
I don't have faith in a rebuild with him .
Gets players in then plays them out of form or plays them in different position .
Haaland in the team one of the best forwards in the world but no service to him is unbelievable .
Majority of team are out of form all season .
Is it the players fault or tactics ?

It is both the players fault and the tactics.

I’m as despondent as the next Blue at the present situation.
But for me.
Pep’s football does work and it’s not finished.
You just need players who are clever hungry and technically up to it. Which we’ve had in spades over his tenure. The jury is out on the current crop.

I am getting fed up with Bernardo and Foden. And with Pep. Why are de Bruyne and Gundogan on the bench? They are completely useless to us now. I want to see Pep start thinking about re-building MCFC.

It's time Pep got serious. Play the young players now and find a way to get Marmoush into the side. That's what you are paid to do.
 
folks wants 5 in a row , spoilt brats
just be fucking greatful we didn’t tank like one hit wonder .
 
I think a lot of hunger and players knowing they are leaving is leading to these performances as well, some just going through the motions, I do wonder about Foden as well, too much to young maybe or is there underlying health issues which have been muted before. Pep may need to change his thinking because the players we’ve brought in are nit of the standard of previous ones and his ticky tacky May well not work in the future.
 
Not the best season and not the best match, thought we were a little unlucky not to get a draw .In all honesty I think we were better than when we won there last season. Certainly conceded fewer easy chances.

Well that was an insipid showing. Neither side deserved to win a tight game. City don't move the ball quickly enough znd are too predictable. Their goal was totally avoidable. It was really poor defending and goalkeeping. Gvardiol gave Hudson Odoi far too much room and a keeper should not be beaten at his near post.

With his position, there's only one thing Hudson Odoi could have done. Gvardiol was a statue and Ederson took up the correct position, but done fuck all thereafter. Really poor goal to concede that.

It wouldn’t be if it had creativity in the final third.

We don’t create anything in tight games or against good teams.

The pass pass pass football is supposed to be to get into situations where you can do something dangerous.

However: nobody slots through the runner when he breaks the line and is in space to run at goal, nobody plays those chips over the flat back line, nobody gets to the byline and pulls is back, nobody finds the right foot of Haaland where he can play it to his left in space for a shot (always seems to be fired at his shins where he’s not good enough and too lanky to control balls like that in the PL), the only player who looks for a one-two in and around the box is a centre back playing as a left wing back, we don’t shoot from distance enough, nobody can cross, there absolutely no link-up play between Foden+Haaland (and never has been)…

And midfielders, we have no goal threat from them either.

And you don’t leave a club laden with medals if you’re not a good goalkeeper.

Ederson is one of the best who made a gaff.

Onwards we go.
Click to expand...
His skills, so to speak are now irrelevant in this team. A “ one of the best” shot stoppers he is not ( even with that super save) and never has been. His skills lie elsewhere which no longer seem to suit the team.
Onward we go is right but not in the status quo.

Tight angle. Meaning the ball could only go in one way. Hence why Eddie was poor. There was no option but the near post.

From that close you can’t blame the keeper. He could have scored either side of him. Gvardiol jogged . When he should have confronted the winger near the edge of the box
