That was my question.

More and this seems fair comment to me. "Newcastle looked really solid, if Almiron had a right foot he'd be top draw. Guimaraes was on another level to anyone on the pitch. Touch toothless up front but you could see them top 6ish with a top striker and a better right sided midfielder. Nothing to panic about with us, team is going to take a while to gel and that while comfortable for them there is some promise. I'm not sure we can afford two strikers for some of our tougher away fixtures. Too many long balls too."

More from Forest forum: "Newcastle are a mid table team and it was like a training match for them. We need to learn from this, I think the intensity surprised us, but we will adapt over the games but the first month will be rough. We really miss Davis and his hold up ability, that would have relieved some pressure and allowed us to get up the pitch. We were pinned back in our half all game. Johnson needs to realise he cannot play like a luxury player just waiting for people to put him in the right positions in this division, he needs to work to make things happen himself or the team will suffer. ===================================================================================================================================== Disagree I think Newcastle will be pushing for the European spots. Today was one of the top 6 trickiest away games we’re likely to face. Our home form will ultimately define our season.

Time wasting subs

3 minutes stoppage

Wee man for Miggy

Nice movement by big Joe

Nice overlap by Targett.

sports Direct deal fell through when Ashley wanted them to pay him like at Newcastle.

That just made me think of Steve Bruce, that's all. I'm sure terms will come out.

Kinda shocking this.

Fulham is giving Liverpool a good game.

Happy match day guys. Should be fun burning down the trees.

It's Peacock so not sure they can stream it. Hopefully someone has some ideas.

I thought both teams missed sitters and Arsenal was overall better but Palace was always in it. Fun game to kick off the league.

Based on their pedigree I'd say it's likely that nonsense is a thing of the past.

Crystal Palace 0-2 Arsenal Fulham 0-4 Liverpool Bournemouth 1-2 Aston Villa Leeds 3- 2 Wolves Newcastle 3- 1 Notts Forest Spurs 2- 0 Southampton Everton 0 - 3 Chelsea Leicester 2 - 1 Brentford Man United 3 - 1 Brighton West Ham 1 - 3 Man City I'll nominate Newcastle v Forest for double points also.
