It wasn't a good cup draw for us, I bet Lamouchi never wanted this game. It hasn't really done him or the team any favours.
I view it slightly differently in that I think it will have done us good the soft underbelly of Forest over the last 20 years has too often been nipped in the bud by over confidence and thinking to much of themselves
Tuesday was a good leveler and from where I was sat we were well in that until the opening goal and that opening goal has hot got the credit it deserves as there was no spectacular finish but that was impossible to defend against and instead of catching a complacent Arsenal we caught one who's confidence improved massively, the 15 mins after they scored was a master class in killing of a game, they strangled the life out of us
As for Friday I'd rather Forest go into that game licking wounds, pride hurt and an opportunity to put the record straight on TV than one getting plaudits for an admirable 2-0 loss
