Bruno’s lack of athleticism gets exposed in games like these

Wilson looking rusty as you’d expect

Dreadful

Wrong ball to play anyway

That’s different, if he’s got a knock and they don’t want to risk him.

There is no way Howe takes this loser mentality approach of ‘we’ll lose anyway, so fuck it I’ll rest my best players’.

Everyone’s inconsistent, feels like a real coin flip at the minute.

These stories have to be rubbish I mean it’s surely just not worth the bad press alone.

Awful defending, how we gave them a free pass I’ll never understand

We have a mentality issue, and it’s nothing new.

I don’t see any team can be in a false position after 2/3s of the season, they may fall away but as of right now they are rightly third.

They are third after 26 games, how can it be a false position?

Desperate for that goal

Our mentality issue rears it’s ugly head again, the anxiety just takes over SJP like no other ground

Remain calm people

Insane half of football, what a collapse

Wow

Going 1 down against this lot early on at home is an absolute nightmare

An emotional outburst before the games even started, today is going to be a good day.

A keeper with feet seems to have been a priority for about 18 months now and rightly so, it’s an easy move to upgrade the output of the side by a good percentage. Ticks all those boxes we like to, young and English being two big ones.

To be fair those stats are pretty indicative of a successful winger in the counter heavy system that Forest play, you shouldnt expect it to look much different than that. (I don’t have a strong opinion on Hojlund either way, so don’t kill me )

Full on panic mode defending there soon as the ball was played

I said that myself in the rest of my post

I guess I see this a little bit differently now, especially to the way I saw it after their game vs us back in December. They absolutely rolled over for us then, I’ve never seen a Man United side look so weak and incapable and it was down to the way Amorim set them up. The two in CM was never going to hang with us but he knows that as well as anyone and still went with it anyway. It felt like he was out of his depth, but as the weeks have gone on he’s persevered and it looks different now. Its all by design. Its high risk but I think he was given the blessing to figure out who he wants to keep by doing it all his way, he’s going to stick by his system and play who he wants when he wants even if it likely means a loss (fortunately for them no danger of relegation). Hes not a stupid coach, he’s very capable and he knows that side will lose most weeks in the PL using his system with their current squad. He’ll get the summer to rebuild, but they will need to kick on from there if he is to stick around. It depends who they can bring in and get rid of, and for what money. Same limitations as everyone else basically, but he’s got a huge job on his hands. It’s a total reset. He’s publicly lowering expectations constantly, and so far the fans are onboard. If next season they spend and don’t start quickly I think the tide will turn before long though - as it always does.

Tbf he does have them 8 points clear in the league
