Nottingham Forest - Liverpool
It's not rocket science is it audio? play 2 up top 100% impoves our chances of scoring been banging the drum most of this season, apparantly its not the fashion these days. I see MC are now playing with 3 up top and are looking good.

Lets stop bickering about this one and move on.

Different debate. Nuno and Dyche would both have bought on Morato on 85 mins to try to guarantee the point. Whether the end result would have been the same we will never know, but would it have been the smarter move for Vitor?

I think the timing and use of subs was correct but the personnel brought on was wrong. Not digging him out because he barely knows the squad yet.

We play 1 striker at the moment and no goals so having 2 up front isn't 100% chance of scoring its 100% chance of both not scoring but like SM has mentioned lets move on because out playing in the last 2 games is definitely 100% better and once we have our belief again we'll be flying thats for sure.

Depends how you view life Forest1970, if a chance does not fall for one then it falls for the other, I would say that's a 100% improvement, do you not agree?

People keep banging on about how much we're missing Chris Wood & digging out our current striker/s for not living up to his high standards but seem to have conveniently forgotten that in the last 12 months even he has played 19 games & only scored 4 league goals. The whole of our front line seem to have developed performance anxiety in the final third of the pitch & the longer it goes on the worse their decision making seems to be getting & the more the yips are kicking in. It seems to be contagious for anyone else coming in too.

So Jesus has scored more goals than Chris Wood in all competitions over the pairs last 19 games.

For me its less on Jesus and more on the other guys in attack. CHO missed a sitter early, MGW had a good chance late vs Liverpool. Hutchinson, CHO, MGW, Anderson need to start contributing some goals. Maybe score from a corner at some point ever too!

My memory is a bit S**t at times but who was taking corners last year? All Elanga?

We scored 12 goals from 159 corners according to TNT last season. 

We are at 5 goals this.

Think it was Elanga last season. My theory about Arsenal's threat at corners is not because of all that choreography that goes on in the box, but that every single time the ball is delivered right bang into the mixer, with menace and pace.  We just don't have anyone in the squad who is capable of doing that. All our balls in are just hit and hope floaty types. Anderson tries to stick a good ball in, and does occasionally, but generally his delivery is pretty poor.

I dont like inswingers........I would prefer Hutch to take corners on the left and Ando on the right and be outswingers, that always makes the keeper nervous to come out and punch.

Over all this season our corners have been shocking.

We might be better off taking short corners.
