Nottingham Forest PL (H) | Man of the Match

[blue whippet]

I went for Doku but I was really torn between the top three. Grealish very nearly got my vote but I think it was Doku's goal that didn't for me. Great to see KDB back on form. Hope Ake isn't his hamstring and it just felt a bit tight.

You cannot give it to anybody but kdb. Not only was he the difference maker, he made those around him better too. Doku a respectable runner up.

Doku, Grealish, KdB. However, I could only pick one.

Grealish then KDB. Hope KDB is ok for weekend

Everyone played well, hard choice between De Bruyne and Grealish for the most outstanding, went for Grealish since it was an unfamiliar position for him and he excelled.

Grealish then KDB. Hope KDB is ok for weekend

A bit soon for another start, maybe. He was gassed ten minutes before half time and again ten minutes before he went off tonight.

How was Grealish in the middle?

Hit the spot!

Doku was good with his skill, and scored, BUT his finishing and final ball continues to flatter to deceive. KdB was also good, scoring and assisting, but he twice nearly assisted Forest, and when he gives the ball away he doesn't try and get back and retrieve it. Bernardo had his best game for weeks, back to his waspish self.

However that was one of Grealish's best performances for City for me, so gets my vote.

So much better from City though, but the signs have been there for three games now, we were mostly good against Feynoord until we fell apart with 15 minutes or so to go, and I thought we played pretty well at Anfield after we could have been 4 or 5 down after 15 minutes.

Kev for me followed by Jack. Midfield was strong against a physical Forest side and posed a goal threat, hence the result
Big difference having experienced players back all over the pitch.
