FT great win Flying at HT, but had to dig deep in the end, result is all that matters and I was worried about this game At the end of the day, we've done the double over a team who have been on fire this season.
At the end of the day it was a good 3 pts against a decent side. We all know that tactically Howe is extremely limited
Right here’s my big, big issue with how ****ing moronic Howe is. Dan Burn, Nick Pope and Fabian Schar can NOT be the focal point of possession. They are miles below the levels needed, so his idea of then sitting back and playing around at the back when Forest have energy in attack was so utterly ****ing brainless I don’t know what to tell you. We won because we played from midfield forward. Bruno just gave it forward and the ability of Willlock, Miley and others meant we just took it to Forest too much. Changing that to give Dan Burn more time on the ball is insanity. I have no idea why he did it, either he’s utterly limited as a manager, think Burn/Pope are far better than they are, or both. Ludicrous nail biting game that should’ve been a 6-1 or more thrashing ahead of Liverpool. Now all that we’ve done is show Liverpool how to beat us and diminish confidence from our limited players by exposing them. Poor management on every ****ing level. To add - without Lewis Hall we might have been beaten.
That we won is the most important thing, even if it was a bit disappointing to end up struggling so much after the electric first half performance. Just have to hope that Isak doesn't have too bad an injury now.
When I see putting Barnes in the right I know we'll never win anything with him as manager. A win in the end though.
It just wasn’t needed. We are at home and he does this “game management” crap that he’s useless at. We didn’t need to slow down. If was clear as day he told them to save their legs for the Liverpool match. He should have taken the important players off and kept the tempo up.
Woeful second half. Absolutely awful. Back to the Man City stuff. WTF. Atmosphere non existent too. Good job we crushed them in the first half. Valuable 3 points.
