Nottingham Forest Thread

[Madron]

Are all our fans still loving the Forest model? One signing has kept them in games. The goalie. Without him, they wouldn't have a point.

Aye , they are 2nd favourites for relegation for a reason.
I think they will do well to stay up

This made me laugh. Thought about sending the link to Kinnear.

Forest closing in on a deal for striker Michy Batshuayi

Would be there 21st signing I think.

They have made a signing every 4 days of the window.

Senseless. It might work in terms of establishing a decent first team - will probably take until after world cup for them to settle

But what do you do with that many players? It would make sense if half were 1st teamers and half were U-21's, But none of them played in the reserve game against us last week.

If they went down this season imagine how many loaned players are going out the door…. I’ve never heard of so many signings in one transfer window, surprised there’s not a cap.
How many players have they got rid of this season as they’ve literally added a full squad!

How on earth do you keep so many professional footballers happy, who plays, who doesn't, who's on the bench, who's the difficult one, who has the big ego, who's the difficult one that needs more managing, who's the main man,??

Think sorting that out would be a nightmare to be honest.

England managers couldn't even sort out where best to play Gerrard and lampard, imagine having to sort out 20 odd into a starting 11.

And worse of all..having to work with Jesse Lizard every day

It's impossible. Several of those won't even play a game

Dean Henderson

Henderson is going to be instrumental to Forest's season back in the PL.

[Boo Radley]

Comparing the Forest team that played in the Playoff Final and the team that played against Man City during the week, there were only four players that remain in the team and one substitute. Two of these remaining players were substituted in the second half.

When you consider the amount of our players that lined out in the Championship winning season and were still in the team during our first season in the PL, there is no comparison. If I’m not mistaken we had only 4 new players on the field and very few, if any, on the bench.

Forest have conceded 14 goals in their last 4 matches.

I wish we'd had played them last Monday.

I dont! I think it would've been similar to the Everton game. A lot of bus parking and time wasting and we scrape a draw.

As ever with any team struggling to find form, we usually assist them the best we can.
Living amongst them , I surely hope we batter them when we do play them

Pretty sure we'd beat them right now. They've got a lot of new players trying to find their way, trying to fit a system. By the time we make up this fixture, they'll probably all be fully integrated.

Doesn't work out like that when Leeds roll into town, mate.

Forest could be on a 6 month winless streak and the minute they play us they'd magically turn into Man City.

And their goalkeeper would turn into Gordon Banks.

Indeed Rook, the City Ground seems to be a tough place to go for Leeds.

It's all about adopting the right attitude, discipline & not making stupid errors all over the park.

Over the years we have made so many poor teams look like world beaters
