Wednesday aren't world beaters but they have a solid Championship side. Their strikers....Bannan in midfield. Players I'd have in the Forest side. Who seem to know what the Championship is all about. The rest of the side contained and controlled and out fought and out thought Forest. And Wed' had 'Forest target'(?) Luongo in their side too...!!!
You can't bring in 11 players and only 4-ish be any good.
It's cold. Dark. It's Winter. And Forest have gone missing again. Causal link..?
The whole side seems out of sorts. But it's not like they've been great all week...or at home all season. Take away the away (!) form and it doesn't look good.

Carvalho and Silva are like little elves on the pitch. Accomodating Dawson has back fired big time

To be honest Dawson and Robinson along with Carvalho need dropping, Watson had a very poor game, we need better players in than these.
We also need to splash some cash in January, this team was found wanting today and from some of the performances from certain players also showed how weak we are in certain areas, most notably the midfield, which to be honest is shocking.

Forest maybe need to look at getting in some 'Championship' and 'battle ready' players into those positions.
Eg. ACM and Winger. Players who can impose themselves on this kind of game. A big lad up front. So Forest can 'mix it up' against the Wednesday's of the world.

Start of the season it's hard to pick MoM because everyone is playing well.
Now its hard pick pjck because no one is playing well.

Sow will help in that regard when eventually fit

Dawson and Watson and 'over the hill' in football terms. It's expecting a lot for players in their mid 30s to carry a side all season...when really they should be able to come on and see out games with their experience.
Robinson positionally seems to be getting caught. Car' seems light weight.
Seems like the whole team had a bad day. There was one cross from Cash that got spooned behind goal.
The team needs a shot in the arm. Winger. ACM. DCM. (To try and fix the perennial midfield problem. 3 players in across the midfield.) Striker. Wednesday's front striking line vs ours. 1st half. Speaks for itself.

I think so. Miss his energy, positivity and physicality. Sow was the definite catalyst in Forest's charge into the top 6.
Pity he got injured. We'll never know what might have happened if he'd stayed fit...

Similar to the last game and the game before, he’s had a bad spell since he came back into the team. Pretty much all their attacks came down the left. He wasn’t the only one who was poor though...
It seemed relentless. In the previous games too, it stood out. Just seems to lack the discipline at key moments in seeing out games.

Bad day at the office all round, but highlights the lack of quality in the club's recent signings. Simply not the options to change it up when behind.
Battle-ready Championship midfielders is right. Wish we'd have signed Tomlin instead.

I’ll admit I haven’t seen the goals but anyone else feel samba has been out of sorts since either the Bristol or QPR game can’t remember which it was when he got a bit of a knock around goal, dunno if it was either his head or shoulder but on some opposition attempts since he hasn’t seemed as sure of himself spilling the ball for millwalls equaliser etc

Just got back.
What an absolute shit show.
I was saying in jest pre match that Sabri would mirror Aitor and be gone after the Chelsea. I fear that actually might be a reality.
Embarrassing performance defensively, I’m sure the simplistic approach will be to single out Grabban, Carv and Sammy though.
