Nottingham Forest (A) | Post Match Thread

Forest are defying gravity in their league position. I think they’re the poorest side in the prem. Piss off back to the championship and take that pathetic shirt with its two stars with you.

1. They're nowhere near the worst team. They had a dreadful start to the season, but they've got their act together now. Saints, Everton, L***s; all poorer sides.
2. I'd love to see even one of those stars on a City shirt.

I don’t get all this slagging off of KDB, Gundo and Foden.
We had 23 attempts and scored one. Those who missed the sitters are more to blame if we need heads on plates.

No problem with Gundo, neat and tidy but Phil and KDB were guilty of consistent bad decisions. Not just one or two but virtually every time they played the final pass.

Those are the game I fear most this season ? We are just so sloppy and wait for somebody else to do something,
it's like we have KDB Haaland Foden Grealish they will win it for us at some point in the game,

we don't punish teams and kill them off, then it's always the same, we let them score and its too late

when the games too easy we start pissing about

Rodri is still an overrated donkey

Says our cockney visitor.

well it’s a different feeling walking away from the ground today than Wednesdays. Performance was probably better overall today, which is the bizarre thing. But, missed chances! Embarrassing decision making from phil at the start of the half. Haaland has to score. Laporte should of also with the header. Really feels like it just isn’t going to be our season this season.

Safe home blue

irrelevant opinion..nothing Ederson can do about todays goal

Ederson does nothing about most goals we concede.

 

[Bluearmy]

Unpopular opinion
I'd have Ortega instead of Ederson

It wasn't Ederson’s fault today but conceding from the first shot on target happens far to often for it to be bad luck…. Very frustrating and maybe that change is worth a try…..

 

[Roachy]

Once they made their subs to push for the goal, Pep should have immediately moved to put Ake on. Take off KDB and move Bernardo to Kevin’s role.

There isn’t a finger to point at todays result though. You could go down the starting XI and list a almost half the roster that had horrid moments. Laporte, Rodri, Haaland, Foden, and KDB all had opportunities to put this game away.

I think Ake comes on 5 mins before that goal, if doesn't happen.

 

[WickyWain]

Getting a draw in those circumstances will seem like a win to them. As I said before, I don't blame them.

But it wasn't a win and I hope the fuckers get relegated by 1 point now :)

Nah I really enjoy travelling up and down the country to watch whatever today was supposed to be and him being outcoached by Steve Cooper ffs. Really top day and handed all the momentum to the arse and the rags.

Our coached? If players took chances it could easily have been 5

Ederson's decision making is fucking atrocious, by the way. How many goals do we concede like that where he doesn't get anywhere near the ball, but leaves himself in no mans land and gives the striker a tap in? Stay on your line and give us a fucking chance.

Nobody can doubt his importance to the way we build from the back, but in all other areas of the game he's simply not good enough for a team that wants to win the biggest prizes, and the kicker is, he's getting worse with every passing season.

Bring Ortega in for a few games. Time to show Eddy he isn't irreplaceable.

Been saying this for a while
Ederson is wildly overrated as a shot stopper and I think Ortega’s distribution is perfectly adequate
