Barnsley - Nottingham Forest

[wassy04]

It's probably understandable that some people start demanding a different formation and game plan but I don't believe that would have helped much yesterday. When you only manage a pass accuracy of 50% you will have a serious issue independent of formation. I choose to believe that the reason for the low pass accuracy is that the team are still in preseason mode. Hopefully a further week with training will rectify that.

Plus we were missing a lot of players that you'd predict would start normally.

Jenkinson, Worrall, Colback, Lolley, Sow (if he ever plays again), Freeman (didn't start), then you add in the fact that there were a number of debutants and just not worth over analysing.

What I would say is that the first month will be tough with the team still building fitness, for Sabri's sake we could really do with a few wins to re build confidence
