Only saw the highlights sadly, but with 2 goals and very nearly a hat trick I voted for the player who I would not have started with - Wilbs.

 

I've gone Nathan Baker, thought he was solid last night. Hard to chose though as they all played well.

 

Went for Smith , but tough decision between
Freeman was a close one even to the fact I changed my mind from him to Smith.
Baker who out of the loan players I would like to sign.
And I thought Flint looked comfortable last night.

 

Tough decision this one. Several contenders but Korey for me, by a whisker from Luke.

 

Wilbs by a country mile,fantastic performance and display.

 

Smith for me. He was immense in the 2nd half.

 

Just like old times eh
Several contenders for MOM

 

Hard one, but Wilbs did put us 2-0 up in 11 mins, I was in Atyeo and out of my seat as soon as he headed it for the 2nd- Smith, Freeman, Flint and Baker stood out, Pack didn't have too bad a game either, just wondered why he is the only one not on the list!

 

Between Smithh and Baker, went for Smith in the end as he was more consistent

 

The problem is that there are only 10 choices - every week I have to leave someone out - I must admit I found it quite hard this week because everyone did quite well

 

Korey Smith by just the thickness of a Rizla from Nathan Baker

 

Korey Smith for me, he was outstanding....the nearest player we have had to Gerry Gow, that's the highest praise I can give him, he is that good.

 

Wilbs for me.
Thought their Keeper was superb, crosses, shots, distribution.
Without him they'd have shipped 6.

 

Their keeper got MOM on the official Forest website

 

Smith just ahead of either Baker or Freeman

 

Is it just me or do you think Pack plays too close to Smith? This is where we seem to be allowing teams to come at us with Pack playing too close and creating space for the opposition.

 

Typical!
Why do opposition keepers play a blinder when playing us ?!!!!!

 

'Why do opposition keepers play a blinder when playing us ?!!!!!'

That's what Boro fans said.

 

and no doubt it's what the Forest fans were saying too. Frankie made some top quality saves.

I heard a young kid talking to his dad behind me, went along the lines of

Kid: "who do you thinks been our best player"

Dad: "not sure, they've all played well"

Kid "Has to be Wilbraham, he's scored 2 goals"

Dad "Fielding has had a good game as well"

Kid: "He's only made 2 good saves"

Dad: "That's just as important as scoring 2 goals"

he was spot on, making an important save is just as vital as scoring. If Forest scored from that corner 20 minutes in and it went 2-1, then we would have really been on the back foot and panic starts to settle in, poor decisions and lack of concentration. The little things that happen in a game, i.e fielding making a save, Korey putting a foot in, flint clearing it 50 yards, they all have big impacts on what the final score is...
