Brilliant. Only 3 down, trust the process, we'll be fine, guys.

First thing I saw this morning was the rumour of no Baleba or Ayari due to illness, so I put a £10 on a Forest win.
Easy money when you consider the next available midfielder is 19 year old that’s barely played this season due to injury.

I Can understand the difficulties Fabian has faced, it's his first full season in Charge in the Premiere league, he's a long way from Bundes 2.
And I for one will give him time to try and build the team in his image, but we look so so slow and sluggish man.
Pedro is a prime example, just strolling round the pitch doing nothing.

Slow and ponderous v Fast and direct.
Balanced formation v Total brain fart.
Experienced manager v Intern.
Recruiting for first XI v Recruiting for future.

Very disappointing first half.
We haven't been that bad - had a few decent chances.
Defensively, for the goals at least, we have been very poor. There was 5 or so minutes where we were all over the place.
3-0 is probably a bit harsh.
I think today we have been guilty of not giving Forest enough respect. The table doesn't lie -they're very good at what they do, and they have punished us with their strengths.
Anyway, it's too late to change the game plan. We have to push on for an early goal in the second half, to open the door to a very unlikely come back.
We're gonna go at them in the second half. Who knows, stranger things have happened. My main worry is that they'll punish us again, and again, and it'll be an embarrassing scoreline. But we need to try.

Credit to Nottingham Forest. This shows exactly why they are in the top three. Offensively clinical and defensively brilliant. They have a better manager than us and also the better players. They are a different league to us right now, time to admit it!

Bad day at the office so far..
Actually yes. Even those were better than this, or not an awful lot worse, and at least we knew it’s because we hadn’t a big enough squad and so many were injured. What is this? We’ve been pretty poor all season tbh but lucky in picking up points anyway.
Weirdly, I don't think we've been awful. We've created chances, but not taken them. They've just been far more clinical.
Silly leg waggle from Dunk, poor from Verbruggen (again) for the second, and JP loses Wood. That's three individual errors. They've made none.

Even by our own poor standards, that was a stand out.

I'd bring on Enciso.
We didn't actually replace them, just made it the responsibility of the Deputy Technical Director who didn't appear to have recruitment experience.

I’m depressed right now, that was pretty awful.
i would like to see us, go for it in the second half, we might as well lose 7-3,
Although we all know Forest will sit back and waste time, wait for a sloppy side ways pass and hit us on the break.
I can’t see many extra tickets been shifted for the Chelsea cup game, if folks are watching this and on the fence about going.

It could be a players revolt, they have had enough and will get paid anyway. They do not like FH and it is clear that he is not popular, could be a German thing.

Turn it in, this isn’t on Pedro, he’s been up and down the pitch causing them problems. You can’t give Hurzeler a free pass when he’s picking as shite a lineup as this, the formation is just horrific.
