Nottingham Forest banter 4

Let's start with the defence. It's not right somehow but what does anyone think is a better combo. Murillo is a very skilful player indeed and deservedly MofM today. Nico played well as did Ainia. So do we swop A Om for Boly? As was pointed out on Radio N, we have the worst figures for conceding from set pieces in the premiership. Who has the best record for scoring from set pieces? You guessed it Everton. This problem that cost us a full 3 pts must be resolved
Suggestions please.

Get Boly fit first and yes he's ya man experience and a big fella.

13 Apr 2024 19:34:50
We only had to defend one corner today ?‍♂️.

13 Apr 2024 19:41:12
It's 2 young lads learning their trade on the job

Need felipe or boly with murillo v everton because that's going to be a battle

Dreadful defense for first goal I think Yates gets in the way running in with his arms up

That thing from origi at the end wtf was it a shot cross or just a swing of the leg

Williams beginning to frustrate gets in some great positions but his final ball was Dreadful today

Bring on the scousers.

Absolutely right RedStripe. Williams was played into positions today any full back would dream about. Maybe 6 clear opportunities and it would have been reasonable for him to have scored from 4 of them. He doesn't have the confidence or power though to take any of them or provide a killer cross. Not ready at this level but at 23 will he ever be? Liverpool and Jurgen Klopp came to this conclusion. No faulting his effort but it would be better to pass to someone else or work the ball down the other flank. As you say, frustrating to watch. Toffolo is worse though that's the main issue.

All is missing from Origi is a Pineapple on his head!

13 Apr 2024 21:53:27
Ok that’s a view for the defence. Now the next important area attack and midfield HO is a talented footballer, but is he a one trick pony? . The number of times he got the ball tried to cut and shoot I lost count of. He did not ever centre the ball from the wing for our top goal scorer.

So I would pick Elanga if fit every time. Reyna played well enough to start again. Origi has absolutely zero confidence and when he got in the position to win the game he faltered and neither tried to score or succeeded with a pass. Yet at one point he nearly went past the whole of the Wolves defence. I think he has had too many chances and failed.

Wood must have been exhausted running about but had no balls sent to him in a scoring position. He is our Tiawo from last season and if we are going to survive he must be given the ball as he will score. Can you replace Yates, he had more shots on goal than anyone else and is always trying to help in defence albeit unsuccessfully, today. Would Domingues be better?

13 Apr 2024 22:22:29
Yates nearly conceded a goal if it wasn't for murrilo and again getting back in defence like a headless chicken to let wolves score.

13 Apr 2024 18:08:52
2pts wasted today Origi just has to look up the thread that ball to Wood for a tap in!

Clueless footballer who couldn't score in a knocking shop as soon as he came on you just know the best chance of the game would fall to him

Shilton one on one he saves it SVC one on one he scores Origi one on one CRAP

The biggest disappointment to me this season has been Sangare because of his failure we have to ensure Ryan Yates who never has been nor ever will be a Prem footballer.

Well I'm going to enjoy the last two home games because if I'm to believe what I've been told today that will be it for me. Forest are planning to scrap all concessions after this season, so OAP and youngster fans will have to pay the same as others. One price for all, then there's the twenty pr cent increase in the ticket for next season. Thanks Mr greek my first game was in 1965 thanks for nothing, so much for loyalty. i hope the 30somthing who gets my seat actually is a true forest fan, unlike the chap who sits next to me at the moment who is a man city fan who uses a season card frya relative. Enough said.

13 Apr 2024 22:22:12
And if you think it's a load of bull look on the forest website, you have to be an adult to get on the waiting list. Loyalty counts for nothing, diddly squat. The greek is deluded wait until we're back in the championship and getting 17000 in like we used to do. It's a disgrace.

14 Apr 2024 07:07:20
Redvale very worrying if true my kids tickets gone from 40 to 190 last season if they scrap kids and oaps plus 20% increase loads will not be able to afford it which in turn will kill atmosphere even more

Makes you wonder if they waiting until we safe before announcing it to avoid a backlash in the ground.

14 Apr 2024 10:35:43
I’m led to believe it’s true, Tottenham have done the same. They don’t want concessions not when they can get full price from those who will pay anything to see a game. I’ve been told that there are around 3000 who want a season card, so you can see what way their going.

Now the tinted glasses brigade might realise that this Forest squad of no premiership experience apart from woods boly just can't hack it. To many youngsters in the team all at the same time, relying on to many inconsistent youngsters, just won't work. Unfortunately they are our better players, so nothing we can do about it, but expecting them to live in the premiership with a starting lineup including seven inexperienced under twenty four year olds was crazy, only Woods of the other players has any premier experience.

Expecting this side to be any better than it is, ie, struggling, is unrealistic. IF a miracle does happen and we manage to stay up, then given another year these young lads will be very good for Forest, BUT staying up or going down we will lose some of them. How many young players do you see introduced to the better sides at one go, one possibility two at most also alongside better players than we have. Expectations have been far too high from a lot of you on here all season.

Take those tinted glasses off, and look around at what we have, be realistic, Wolves were no great shakes today, and we couldn't beat them, will playing away at Everton, Sheffield, and Burnley be any easier, NO, realistically 3 points, Man City, Chelsea, realistically 3 points at best. I will genuinely HOPE for better, but my eyes are open.

13 Apr 2024 19:52:12
Plain fact is but for the points deduction we would be just about safe now, and that’s all I was hoping for in this 2nd season,

14 Apr 2024 10:17:54
But we have got a points deduction, and we ain’t safe are we.

13 Apr 2024 17:03:06
If Origi is a professional footballer then I'm a General Custer. Can't even put in a pass when in goal for Wood. Awful.

13 Apr 2024 16:53:02
Origi has some serious problems.

13 Apr 2024 17:12:47
He’s only one problem: playing football lol.

13 Apr 2024 16:33:28
Odds on Origi scoring?

13 Apr 2024 16:54:07
Numbers don't go high enough.

13 Apr 2024 15:34:19
Need more quality behind woods. Is elanga injured?

13 Apr 2024 15:33:35
What a clearance off the line from Murillo.

13 Apr 2024 15:27:14
Glen Murray on tv giving 'expert' commentary. Referring to our team as 'Nottingham' and talking about 'Chris Woods'. And he played for us and was outrageously over paid by us! Money for old rope these ex pros are getting from these media companies.

13 Apr 2024 15:19:25
What a miss from Hudson-Odoi!

13 Apr 2024 14:34:18
Understand what you mean about Dominguez MUNMAD. Reyna deserves a chance to show his much needed ability. It's difficult for a manager as we have so many players of a similar type who have been signed without a coherent plan. Yates needs to be careful first 20 minutes. Hope he scores today ?.

13 Apr 2024 14:06:34
Yates not only in the team but Captain again!

What has Dominguez got to go to get a start!

Big mistake Nuno.

13 Apr 2024 12:53:46
Unfortunately can't get to the game today with a painful leg problem and will be watching on TV live with the armchair experts - no problem!. Danilo and Murrillo came across very well on Football Focus earlier. Reason perhaps why Yates out of control last week and fouling everybody was because Danilo is not doing his job and is not good enough to be selected for away fixtures - when will the coaching team grasp this? He has no bottle away from home. If he is selected today (I'd like to see Yates and Dominguez in midfield) as long as he can play in pretty triangles he will do ok but I'm not sure about him? Omabamadele is not good enough and should not be picked. Williams will try hard but if he has a good winger against him will falter again. It will be difficult to win and match Wolves if every player not giving at least an 8/ 10 performance and as good as their Wolves opposite number. Hudson-Odoi also has to show more fitness or substitute him earlier. COYR.

13 Apr 2024 13:31:01
Obamadele is good enough as is Danilo as for Neco Williams along wit Gibbs White and Murrilo has been among our best players this season

Yates is a clogger and only gets in the side because Sangare has been such a disappointment simple as

Dominguez right DM and Danilo left DM with
Williams Obamadele Murrilo and Aina are our best defensive 6 imo with MGW CHO and Elanga up top with Wood Sels in goal our best 11 imo.
