Nottingham Forest - Fulham

[Sniffer Dog (Admin)]

I thought Andersion had a brilliant chance too but scuffed his shot way wide........that was a good goal scoring chance.

Overall it was a decent performance and unlucky not to win.  But considering we normally lose to Fulham then a point is a good return.

Most important game is next Sunday, and dont forget soon Leeds play Wet Sham.........everything to play for.

West Ham will be miles ahead and have a big cigar on when they meet.

West Ham have one win in their last five games.

Am I missing something?

Everything is wide open and still all to play for.

Taiwo looked every bit a capable no9 when he came on. His style is his style - hes never going to play for Man City or Barcelona, but he did more in his first 5 minutes than Jesus did while he was on. He looks like he's recovered some of his pace too. He's not the total answer but id say atm he's out only striker able to affect games.

He causes defenders to panic and in his short time on the pitch, last minute challenges come flying in.
He is very direct, and that is what we are often lacking up front.
He's not the most prolific goal scorer but the neither is Igor.

Positives from the game yesterday to get us going again before part 2 of this painful 4 game spell:

- Lovely finish by N'Doye.
- Shut down Fulham barring one set piece.
- Thought Taiwo looked a threat when he came on.
- No-one got injured or suspended that I'm aware of.
- We're still out of the relegation zone so it is in our own hands.
- Tudor didn't get sacked...
- We didn't lose.

We go again Thursday in this shitshow of a season. It's funny in the moment this feels like the worst season I can remember but it was only 5 years ago where we needed to scrape wins at the likes of Wycombe to stay up in the championship. Might be more difficult to find positives on getting relegated though.

I would start Jesus Thursday and then Taiwo on Sunday. Jesus plays full game Europa then Taiwo as long as needed against Spuds.

He looks fit again does Taiwo.

What the heck has happened to Jesus recently? He was never a clinical finisher but made up for it with his workrate and he caused problems.
Been totally anonymous last few games, looks like his confidence is gone, not getting anywhere close to being in the correct position and thats the crucial bit for me. Wood is good because he is in the right place at the right time, Igor just isnt there anymore.

I think perhaps the amount of games is catching up to him, he didn't have a preseason due to the CWC remember. I do agree though, he was just nowhere in Sunday's game. At least Taiwo seemed to be in the right place when he came on. Need to start Igor on Thursday though as Taiwo isn't registered...

Yeah we registered Lucca instead….

Where has the eye roll emoji gone?

Is he our worst signing since Diakhaby? Or perhaps even worse? And that is including the fact we've not paid much!

I don't mind Lucca being in but why are Wood and Savona in when they are both injured.

We could have Taiwo and Netz in.

Aina and Williams being flogged to death because Netz not in the squad EL squad.

Yeah I think we all pretty much universally agreed Netz not being in was a mistake. I assume the severity of Savona's injury was not known at the time?

If Wood is back after the international break, he would be available for the quarters onwards. I mean imagine a hypothetical scenario where Wood is back and we got to the SF/Final and he wasn't available. I can think of plenty other players that we don't need in the squad!

The more I see or think about that offside decision and the goal being ruled out, the more p*ssed off I get.

Can’t help but feel if that’s a more favoured club, that goal is given.

I have a feeling we used 3 years good luck in 1 season last year. Injuries, ref decisions everything seemed to go for us for once.
This year reverted to type. Favoured clubs get VAR decisions and can pay off the league with a big fine despite making the same offences as lesser teams. We aren’t a favoured club.
