    I'd like to see them all for once either before or after subs. It never happens because he's always thinking about the next game. I get that, but I'd like to see him roll the duve when you're 1-0 down, rather than wait until it's 2 and then just throw on a few for a run out.

    I didn’t disagree with your post though so you’re having a hissy fit about nothing. We agreed on Pope and Joelinton. I’m not judging Willock on one game. When did he last have a good game? I just think for what he does his best is on the wing. I agreed Gordon is best on the left but to say he’s not very good on the right is nonsense. Remind me what else we disagreed on

    You don’t actually say what you don’t agree on that’s the point. Sunny South or North Shields?

    Howe on the spectrum? To be honest he seems a lot more balanced and rational than a lot of managers.

    Maybe inflexible in some ways, but nowhere near the level were seeing from Ange, Amorim etc this season.

    I'm away out mate.

    One thing I do agree on is that overall it's going well. It's just me saying my opinion on other matters and everyone leave will agree and disagree.

    Have a good day.

    Tino (sadly), Barnes and Odysseas are potentially £100m wasted. I understand Odysseas was a PSR fiddle but how could the board not negotiate with Forest for a more useful player than that? Barnes without question the worst signing since the takeover and much though I want Tino to succeed, and he's young enough, as it stands £40m for a right back when you're starting Schar, Burn, Wilson and Pope looks like another rather stupid decision.

    Ultimately we are doing well, no question. The time to really judge I think is going to be September this year. PSR should be behind us, so all eyes will be on the level of recruitment and how we finish this season. If we've qualified for Europe, added in our glaringly poor areas, then all's good.

    No way man, I remember watching a video of him at Bournemouth, he was doing a sort of light hearted interview

    He doesn't listen to music, only watches football training vids and seems to wear his training gear 24/7. He doesn't understand how people are meant to dress.

    He absolutely struck me as someone dipping his toes into the spectrum. Not full blown autism, but he's around it.

    Expected defeat but just so bloody passive, only Hall was getting into them a bit, poor mentality here, the etihad and even stamford bridge, we look and play like we are inferior.

    Me saying Apart from that it’s going well was a joke (followed by lol as a hint) following you destroying every aspect of the team. You obviously missed that.
    Everything else was a reasonable discussion on those players. It’s what people do on these forums.

    I don't understand why Miley didn't start. He's been one of our best players last few games now.

    Osula should have also started over Darren Anderson.

    We looked so good vs Arsenal when we played a 5-4-1. We could and should have done the exact same thing here - Dubs, Murphy, Tino, Schar, Burn, Hall - Bruno, Tonali, Miley/Willock, Gordon - Osula.

    Murphy's job was to push up which allowed Bruno to shuffle into midfield but stay protected, then as that happened Gordon could move forward and the midfield cover left. I have absolutely zero idea why Howe did what he did, was practically braindead.

    Howe has an autistic son apparently which may or may not explain how he behaves to some extent, if he's used to accommodating that. He just seems very balanced in interviews and never loses it.

    Autism is probably wide in football, but people don't get diagnosed. Messi is widely regarded as being autistic, and the likes of Ronaldo, Kane and Zlatan show traits too. Mourinho came across like that, but he's more of a whiney crybaby with a god complex....which is ND in itself.

    Messi does seem a bit weird to be fair.

    Like he was grown in a lab and they forgot to program his humanity

    You think that but you're wrong.

    I actually can't be bothered with you at this point. The olive branch was there and you've wanted to keeping being argumentative

    I never was being argumentative, you’re just being precious as usual. Get a grip. We only disagreed on Gordon RW (slightly) and Willock LW which you’d have seen if you read what I put properly and I was quite happy to just discuss that. However you just flounce around because you haven’t read it properly. No olive branch ever needed not that I’ve seen one other than flouncing off saying we’ll have to agree to disagree which was not necessary for a simple discussion on a couple of players.
