The Prophet

I'm going to try and stay out of this thread and just enjoy the ride this time. Posting in the 22/23 equivalent nearly sucked the fun out of it.

We're right in the mix, exciting times.

Berge has been playing really well of late.

If (a big if) we can win our next three and add to Villa's draw tally at home, we're laughing.

Good game. Always felt like Villa would win that, it's one Forest could afford to lose. As ever we need to focus on ourselves, if we win the next three we're right in contention for 3rd.

The international break did them a lot of good, they were looking rather leggy beforehand.

Forest's home form should see them through.

Forest have looked so vulnerable away from home of late.

Villa's squad depth is great.

Fancy a Villa win. They've only lost once at home all season (granted there's a lot of draws in there) and Forest have been sus away from home of late.

We tend to be good against teams towards the bottom of the league (P12 W10-D1-L1). Obviously we can't get complacent, but it's been a theme under Howe.

Didn't appreciate what an outrageous ball that was at the time. 5 goals and 9 assists this season, fair play.

Harsh on Mike.

It's minimal contact and weak as fuck from the defender. No doubt stays down knowing it'll get checked too. It's as soft as fuck.

It's not clear and obvious for me like.

Reminder, VAR is the absolute fucking pits. How is that not re-refing the game?

Absolutely dreadful cross like.

They'll play a second string in that you'd imagine.

I was just giving an example as to why there's more to it than pace and strength.

I would be tempted to bench Joelinton for this. At least he'll be available for Man United then.

There's more to it than that though. Look at Osula v Brentford. Comes on, plays a daft pass, the daft pass directly leads to a goal.
