Nottingham Forest - Reading

[stirred]

regarding Tuggers comment '' Hughton explaining his 'twin pillars' of Consistency and Durability.''

could translate as sameness, herein lies the problem, herein lies the reason i haven't bothered listening to Chris's pre match stuff this week

i'd completely forget about 'consistency' for a while, maybe play really badly, lazily but come to life for a few key moments and win 3 nil

i'd like to look for differant ways, several in a game, to win the game, yes the foundation would be long durations of resolute defending, maybe ultra defence for 80 minutes

but i'd prefer attacking players to not expend all there energy chasing back, i'd prefer most of our attacking players to not even appear on the pitch for an hour, there has to be times where we create an advantage, overloads and gamble

i want to move on from seeing the team competitive, all over the pitch, all game and lose 1 nil

we have perfected consistency but that doesn't translate to winning games unfortunately, if anything you could argue it has cost us 30 points this season alone

‘Consistent’ isn’t the word, we’re predictable, and that’s generally not good in sport, unless you have a big edge.
