Barnsley - Nottingham Forest

[Plymouth red]

Jeez at this rate we will be bottom again

[Salvatore Matrecano]

Nearly. Have the words “Yates” and “defence splitting pass” ever been used together before?

Close from Lolley too.

"Yates once again beaten by a defence splitting pass..."

:D

Slow first 20 but picked it up since then. Zinck with some disappointing touches in good positions. Perhaps Johnson would be better off out wide

I know it's going to take time but passing is an issue.

Unfortunately only started to play after we went 1down. Need to up tempo second half and really put pressure on defence as i would anticipate barnsley will sit back and try to hit on the break.

Barnsley look a terrible side. If we lose to this level of rubbish we are in big trouble.

[Floridared]

Don’t know what to make of that half.
Samba , except the penalty had nothing to do.
Forest had some good breaks but failed really to create anything.
Forest playing out from the back and being well pressed when they do, their keeper plays it long all the time.
Doesn’t seem that Forest have anytime on the ball with Barnsley quick into the tackles.
There are goals in this game, needs a good half time talk.

[Paplane]

We need more quality all around. Passing out of defence has been poor.

I think you have your answer, we are where we are on merit (or absolute lack of). The fact that Derby, with all their problems still seem to be fighting and being competetive should make us question the 'talent' we have. 

Cooper has got a big job on his hands

HT, I thought we were OK without really look like scoring as no recognized striker, if Grabban is fit enough to sit on the bench then he is fit enough to start! We all know Figs is so rash in the box he is a penalty waiting to happen. He is the kingpin of the back three but simply not good enough, Worrall should be in that position, bring in Sho Saturday to play RHS of the three.

[HebdenRed]

We can’t pass through their press and are panicked any time they press on our back 5

And we’re not good enough to work out a way to get through it

Patterns of play are still the same / predictable / in straight lines

[PsychoStanleyStone]

can't see us scoring less than 3 second half
