Think he played his part in it tbh, was involved and holding the ball up. He's not going to be left alone in front of goal though so don't see him scoring. Will need someone else to step up.

Agree, far too much negativity. We are one clear chance away from CL away to Arsenal.

Yeah, I feel we need more from Gordon and Barnes to capitalise on it. We are playing with a front 3, it shouldn't all just be on the striker.

Think he's done alright, was more disappointed Barnes didn't run into that space when it was cut back with Wilson occupying their defenders.

We are playing well enough anyway. Isak was playing with an injury so we won't miss him that much in open play.

Bettter first touch from Gordon there and Wilson was in.

It's there to be won, we have the players, just need a good strike.

Just need one of these to drop to Wilson.

Fucking hell, Reya's saved them 3 times already.

Playing well enough without Isak, just need someone to apply a decent finish and we can definitely get something from this.

Feels like Forest have lucked out somewhat.

A goal today would wipe out all the negative comments aimed his way since his return.

That is true, Isak has been very subdued lately, obviously playing with an injury. On the other hand, he's one of the few strikers in the PL who has made Arsenal's defenders look ordinary. Don't fancy Wilson to have much impact unfortunately.

I'd still rather they lost.

The way I look at it, we get two bites at the cherry. If we don't win today, it will be nice to have a chance to put it right against Everton at home.

Don't blame him for going back on the drink tbh, if it makes him feel better about Arsenal then it should be counted as medicinal.

Yeah Joelinton's shoes are pretty big to fill, that's why I'm not that surprised that Howe turns to Willock. He might not have the phsyical presence, but he does cover the left flank pretty well. I think the 3 centre back/wing back combo is the next best thing with our current squad.

Glad I'm not the only one who thinks this.

Will need to be a midfielder who can pull wide left as well if we are looking for someone to step in for Joelinton. Willock has been underwhelming this season when he's been fit, but we don't really have anyone else in the current squad who can do it. Unless you count Lewis Hall.

I think Daniel Levy probably wants him to win a trophy less than you do.

Agree, already said last week that I have no problem selling Willock and using that money to buy an understudy for Joelinton. Willock has a lot of attributes, but he's out for long periods, then when he does come back in he's had little impact.

Never mind, just checked and there's a couple of years left so not going to be leaving for a pittance.

When is his contract expiring?

Not sure he's Emery's type of player tbh.

I'm not saying he's a bad manager, just don't think there's enough to go on just yet. It's basically Klopp's team, and it's performed worse the longer the season has gone on. He can only really be judged on his own merit from next season.
