Nottingham Forest (H) | Post Match Thread

Excellent overall.

Got the win we desperately needed and that we deserved. Much more fluid, passing forward quickly on occasion and 3 different goal scorers.

Sloppy at times with our passing.

Not that I’ve been saying it for years or anything but Jack Grealish in the middle fucking works. He was superb in a free role. His best game for a long time by a mile. I’m well pleased for him.

Haaland’s best game for a while too. Loved seeing him dropping back in and what a lovely ball for Doku.

Same again at weekend, please.

Home early too.

Today is a good day.
 
More like it. Good performance, few players stepped up their game from recent weeks, namely bernardo and gundo, and the return of kdb made the telling difference. Foden hasn't put in even half as good of a performance as that all season and that's kdb being cautious.

It's not all sunshine and roses from here mind, we were still wide open on transition and only the window can fix that. we were quite fortunate that they were really, really poor tonight, due a bit of luck though.

That starting back 4 tonight is the best we have I would say that needs to be the back 4 until January where again we'll need reinforcements to beef up the ridiculous decision to have just 6 defenders but looks as though Ake is done again and Akanji too so that idea is out te window. Dias' leadership is a welcome return.

Pleasing to score 3 and none of them be Haaland. Finally got other goal contributions, that needs to continue, we will need individuals to step up and carry us until January, if they can without us dropping any points and we reinforce big time then we can see. On to palace now. Must win that.
 
Another good performance by Ortega, and Pep's decision to change keeper has been fully justified.

Loads of positives from tonight, notably KDB and Doku - if we can get a bit more end product from him, he will be truly special.

Hopefully we patch them up and put a good enough 11 out again at the weekend to get 3 points at Palace.
 
much better but not convincing at all...

lots of mistakes, and shakey defensively at times.

Grealish adds control in the middle but doesnt have a clue what to do with it once he gets near the edge of the opponents box
Gundo was our worst player - giving the ball away numerous times.

Doku was our main danger man going forward and as always Bernardo worked so hard - needs a rest.

KDB - still think he is struggling - if given time and space he can hurt anyt team - but when pressed he is very close to giving possession away and did do at times.

Palace away will tell us a lot more about where we are as a team with some of these players coming back
 
That’s more like it. Great stuff.

Looked pretty full to me as well. What happened to the 4,000 unsold tickets?
