Brice Samba

[optimistic_red]

Does Brice get a bonus for every minute wasted?

Is he close to a suspension, how many yellows has he had?

Think hes on 5 Sniff and 10 is the point of suspension. But some big games coming up so we'll need all those 5 to maximise his shithousery.

Theres no denying the man has a bit of talent but even Cooper got p****d off with him after the Barnsley game. I think we rely on quick counter attacking and all Samba wanted to do is lie down on the ball or argue with everyone including his own teammates.  Of the few games I've seen of Forest I'm sure he wasn't this bad.

There's a time and place for the 'pantomime' antics.  Vs Derby he got it 'right.'  (Though Clough would be spinning in his grave.)

Cooper clearly wants his keeper to lead the attack from the back.  Quick release and get Forest's counter attack and Brennan's afterburner's going.

He doesn't want his keeper a***ing around when there is a game to be won and Barnie were there to be put to the sword.

Should have thumped these tin pot wannabes 5-6 goals to nil.

Barnie got their bloody nose in the end and it's been a long time coming.

SA.

Completely agee. I love Brice and Vs D*rby it was brilliant. Wound them up, took the pressure off us, thank you very much. (Although when I saw my 78 year old dad the next day he did say, "Can someone please tell our goalie to stop mucking around?" - old school.)

I did catch the interview with Cooper after Barnsley & I wonder if the result and fan adulation after Sat went to Brice's head a bit (in addition to Lawrence's shin)? Hopefully Cooper has taken him aside and the fast breaks and counter attacks are there for all of us to see on Sunday.

P.S some of Brice's passes out from the back in the last couple of games have been sensational. I think I remember on Tues that the Sky commentator went out of his way to praise.

He is on 5 yellows. Rules are to get a 2 game ban he would have to pick up 10 yellows (5 more) before game 37. Hopefully he cant get 5 in 9 games, refs will be on to him with his antics though.

His distribution is much improved this year although on Tuesday night his kicks were going out for a throw in more often than not.

He had a problem with one of his boots on Tuesday and had to change them during the game, although the new boot didn’t improve his kicking much

I think Brice v Barnsley was trying to do what he can to be involved and win the game. 2 nil up, slow game down, keep possession, conserve and play safe, etc.
However Cooper isn't happy with an easy 2 nil win, he wants to be sharp, attack attack, get more goals, play at 100%
We may need good goal difference towards the end of the season.

I love Brice. Also love Cooper. Everyone at Forest will get better while he is our manager.

Yep, Cooper had a face like a smacked arse after the game, he was clearly very displeased. I reckon he wanted an up-beat high tempo game but his players didn't really deliver that even though they got 3 goals. I reckon Cooper must've given them the hair dryer treatment in the dressing room after the game.

It's testament to him that we're getting such good results but there's still things that can be massively improved upon.

He's a good goalkeeper so why does he spend so much time larking about?

It seems like he likes the attention. I hope he's going to apologise for what he did today. It was inexcusable.

Hope he gets a big fine by the club too.

I will leave it there.

Don’t recall the same furore when Colback was sent off earlier in the season.
