Nottingham Forest - Wycombe

[zicorice]

Lyle Taylor's interview on Radio Nottm was superb. He was class today but gave all the credit to defence and 2 Centre mids. I feel the Wycombes energy in 2nd half especially when the big lad came on was in danger of over running us has been underestimated. 

I think its dangerous to be disparaging about the "smaller" clubs. Wycombe looked dangerous and energetic going forward but a bit suspect at the back.

Shout out for Colback today, looked like the player we had on loan.

Really good team performance.

I was thinking during the first half with both Taylor and Guerrero playing so well together that we haven't seen that type of fluidity up front for quite a few seasons! 

What was some on here saying a couple of weeks ago about putting 4-4-2 to bed once and for all?

Couldn't agree more. When you can't string 2 passes together - as vs Sheep -the formation is almost irrelevant as you are on the back foot, deep and defending too much. Plus good sides are fluid and get the numbers where the ball is when not in possession. 

Guerrero was playing up front, but really put in a shift harrying their defenders and midfielders. I thought his all round game was very good. He wont score too many himself, but the team just might. 

Small steps but 7 games 12 points ts is pretty good at any time, but from a team that was on its ar$e is a real turn around. Chris Hughton is certainly proving to be the right man for the job.

I'm happy with the points so far but maybe let's not throw too much undue praise on CH. We've had very friendly fixtures, will be much tougher in the next block of games. That'll be a proper test of whether he's making progress

There are no friendly fixtures in this league. Plenty of supposedly lower teams f#cked up our season last year. The praise at this stage for the job done so far is definitely due
