Nottingham Forest - Wolves

[Uwantlee]

Just back.

Firstly, wolves used this as an extra pre season game and had all their first team in the 17. Their back 3 was the one that started v Spurs. They we’re all bloody giants too. Apart from Podence who shows what a proper small number 10 should be - nippy, skilful and ROBUST. To think that we got carvalho for more money than oly paid for him is rediculous.

We played with practically a back 6 with our wingers as extra full backs. For an hour we held on admirably but then capitulated a little and gifted them 2 of the goals with poor mistakes. Our keeper was excellent though.

Horvath: MOM - very good saves- good quick distribution- vocal
Fin Back: this kid is a player. Didn’t shirk at any time. Tenacious.
Harbottle: some great brave clearances- mistake in possession cruelty led to a goal. Good potential
Fernandez: thought he did great- a bit of a brute and needs to work on possession
Richardson: once this kid starts carrying the ball he glides! I would like to see him at right back because he just seems to be hampered playing on his wrong side -
Colback: thought he had a good game- industrial and vocal. Laughed second half when he had a fall out with Hughton for passing the half way line.
Garner: rolls Royce
Fornah: has the balls to want the ball in tight positions and keep possession.
Konante: put a shift in as the extra full back- put a lovely cross in too in the second half for Hammond who should have really scored
Grabban: fans booed him but bloody hell - what was he supposed to do - he had saiss and coady up his arse
Hammond: struggled physically but never gave up in helping out fin back.
Taylor: did more than Grabban but falls and moans too much.

When you consider traore is attracting £30m bids and think him and another one of their players would cost more than our club then that puts it into perspective.

Horrible atmosphere and worrying apathy amongst some.

The young uns did well and we can all be proud and get behind them. The atmosphere is to the manager and slowly turning towards the owners too especially on Twitter.

The majority of fans feel that the kids have been hung out to dry tonight epitomised by colbacks fall out with CH. Instructions to defend and hold them off... ffs kids against a prem team you are asking for trouble. Feel dorry for them they worked so hard to the managers instruction.

Somethings got to give... do we really have to wait to lose at the sheep dip... why can't they get rid now and give us a fighting chance.
