Now we're at the must win stage, If these players want to play in the top league next season they should give everything and more to get the 3 points.

Results pretty much went our way yesterday with Luton and Sheffield Utd getting well beat.
Hopefully this can be a boost for the Everton match, it really is in our own hands now.
Would love a win but got a feeling it's another draw.

Results pretty much went our way yesterday with Luton and Sheffield Utd getting well beat. Hopefully this can be a boost for the Everton match, it really is in our own hands now. Would love a win but got a feeling it's another draw. Would have rather Sheff Utd beat Burnley. Do want them relegated before we play them. Only 3 points off us as it stands now. This is a massive game for both clubs. Huge repercussions for the club that lose and Forest can almost put a dampener on the relegation battle by winning today. Luton will need to beat Everton to have a chance of staying up after that. Forest have better individuals on the teamsheet but as has been all season, need some character to win this game. I do not want to see Yates as captain. We must have someone in the team who others look up to who has at least played in Europe against the elite. Dominguez I presume can’t speak English well which is why he is not selected so Gibbs-White would be a good choice. Good to see Elanga potentially back. I thought he was poor at finishing but then saw what Jackson did for Chelsea yesterday and he was at least 3 times more expensive….. With choices of Wood, Reyna, Elanga, MGW, CHO, Danillo, we really should be scoring in this game against a shakey defence. Just need Murillo to mark Calvert Lewin out of the game. I do not want to see us sitting deep, we are terrible at doing this! |

I agree. We have to drop Yates. We should stick in Sangare. I know I know, he's been shocking - when played alongside Yates - but he's still the best DM in the squad and would give Danilo and/or Dominguez license to go forward.
Reyna did well last week and should play a part. Elanga and HO in their current spell of form are dispensible. And Id bring on Ribero over Origi this time!

Can’t believe what I’m watching. Dominated by a team that are absolutely awful. Shocking to watch.

No closing down for the goal. Can let MGW off but not Danilo... if he's playing DMC that's his job.
Better in the last 10 minutes. Wood should have scored from 2 yards out. Another where he cushioned a wayward GW shot into the arm of the defender.. deliberate or not it was handball and saved a certain goal. Can't believe it wasn't given.
If we carry that spirit into the second half we can still get something from this. It's a big if.

Disgusting that the three possibly penalties have not went to VAR.
Not surprised mind you!

Dont blame you. We were just so poor today.
If we do stay up it will be because Luton and Burnley sont get points. Id be suprised if we reached 30.

If the Premier League means we can expect no better than being not as good as Everton but slightly better than Luton then I’d rather we weren’t in it.

Thought we unlucky to lose really. Didn't play well but created a couple of decent chances, five if you count all the penalties. I don't remember Everton really creating anything.
There have been so many games this season where we've missed clear chances and/or made stupid mistakes at the back and/or got awful refereeing decisions. Feels like we could easily have had another ten points without having actually played any better.
Forest 7/4 now to go down (Luton 2/5). Surprised it's not closer to be honest....

I can’t see anything but us going down. Fans and coaching team set on agendas of increased ticket prices and dishonest VAR officials which has taken focus away from the fact that we are 1 point above relegation.
Neco Williams interview afterwards echos this sentiment that the players feel victims and are feeling helpless towards the outcome of a football match now which possibly explains some of the performances we are seeing lately. Not once did he mention the team played poorly. Him and CHO not once crossed a ball to a red shirt in the box.
The club would be much wiser to park the bus with all these issues until the end of the season when they can send lawyers to work and increase prices to however much they want but now is not the time. Empower the players to realise they can still win matches without the help of officials by hitting the target and putting good balls in the box.
Should we stay up by miracle, clean the culture of this club as we are becoming a shit version of Man Utd.

Not a fan of Nuno. He seems to do nothing but whine about everything, while ignoring the fact that if you cannot put the ball in the back of the net then you cannot win games. Another "must win" game lost and Luton have an easier final set of fixtures.

Looks like it’s between us, Luton and Burnley after the scouse Derby.

If you believe the papers,
Danillo targeted by Man Utd, Arsenal and Spurs
MGW targeted by Newcastle and Spurs
Murillo targeted by Barcelona, Real and Liverpool,
Yet i don’t feel confident of getting another win this season. The players already packed for next move and just seeing out their time with this club.
Half hearted back heels, the pass for the cameras yet we can’t get the basics right.
I expect a 3-0 result next weekend for City where we do enough to avoid a thrashing followed by 3 poor performances. Key game for me is Luton and Everton. Now Everton are safe are they going to put feet up.
