Jill Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Darlow looked terrible for all the goals He was clearly limping after an early challenge and rolled/threw the ball out for the first few afterwards. Had my suspicions he was still struggling when conceding two in quick succession. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 FFS! Souness was right in his pre-match on Sunday (fuck, I hate saying that)..... two or three bad matches and the sky falls in. What was Rafa saying in his talk-in at Shearers? Will be tough times but when they happen we need to stay united. Genuinely wondering....are other fans of other clubs like this or just us cos of the soap opera bullshit that normally goes on with us? Others are arguably worse, I'd still say we've got more reason to moan and worry than most. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 I thought Barlaser looked extremely average and wanted way too much time on the ball, same as he did against Birmingham Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LFEE Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Quick summary: 1st half even. 2nd all NUFC. Same again in ET. Darlow was injured midway 1st half. Saviet again looks better than Colback. Diame better again deeper. Murphy more polished than Aaron's but Aaron's more eye catching. Lazaar and Gamez both ok. Hanley messed up the stuff you'd expect him to be strong at regarding aerially but then showing surprising pace when needed. Odd performance. Threw the kitchen sink at them but it's not that heavy. Forest took all their chances. Just one of them games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

joeyt Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Hanley was absolutely appalling. Forest's game plan first half was to play it down the side of him because they know he can't run. He gave away at least 3 pointless freekicks and kicked simple passes out of play often too. Mbemba did alright though for most of the game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

xLiaaamx Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Well, at least the players playing further forward did something tonight. Can we maybe combine some of the front 4 with the defence that's been okay so far ((With hopefully Lejuene and Yedlin back)) and have a go now? Really don't want to see Ritchie Perez Atsu and Gayle as the front four on saturday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With regards to that there was the odd moment on the deck he wasn't the quickest but then there was a couple of full on sprints you'd expect him to loose but didn't. Like I said it was an odd performance by him. Thankfully there was no contentious penalty decisions for us to argue over Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thenige Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Generally I'm all for a cup run but realistically we could do without the distraction given our squad and seemingly endlessly shite academy. Don't worry though, I'm sure we'll pack Wembley with 40,000 for our Checkatrade final with the U23s to end many years of hurt (since our Intertoto win).

TRon Posted August 23, 2017 Share Posted August 23, 2017 Hanley was awful for those first two goals. Got caught wrong side of the man for the first one, then left flat footed by a long ball over the top for the second. Maybe he was doing a Costa and trying to get his fee lowered with a crap performance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Birmingham at home he was so so. Thought he was quite tidy on the ball and nothing more. Mainly sideways passes and indecision. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
