buzz Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 (edited) Down to Earth with a bang for the Forest lads after some of their combined XIs and so on. Reading on their forum one said it's like watching Championship football but at x1.75 speed. Edited August 6, 2022 by buzz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you see the Matrix Neo? It's all a simulation isn't it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Not a bad way to start the season that. A couple of quality additions to the squad could make a huge difference also. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
christ Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 It’ll always be mad going 1-0 up and not shitting ourselves. I don’t think I’ll get used to that for a while. Forest were cat shit mind. Saved their blushes by being pretty poor in the final third. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

UncleBingo Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Thoroughly enjoyed watching that in Mallorca on my son's birthday, he was wearing his new Joelinton shirt. Needless to say, there was a couple of potato headed Brexity Mackem families in the bar, who seemed gutted at how good we were and had to watch with gritted teeth. Vamos los muchachos.

Fantail Breeze Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Brilliant performance, our pressing and attacking play was glorious to watch. It’s only Forest, so won’t get too excited, but that was great. Howe seemingly coaching the best out of ASM, finally playing like a team player and looks 10 times better for it.

ikri Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Very nice way to start the season. Feels very weird looking at the league table and not seeing us rooted to the bottom. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankpingel Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Quick look at their forum confirms they over marked their players. We're now a really really good Premier League side, they hadn't realised until today. They'll improve ( they have too) but that's as easy as it gets for us.

I'm missing a systematic pressing, cutting of angles and whatnot. 2 ppl running the same guy. A defending flat 5 in the midfield watching a through pass. Think it was better last season tbh. I had hoped we would evolve into something decent, can't keep blaming the players there. Pope hoofed the ball more than Dubravka tbh. I honestly dont remember Pope kicking the ball once, you're clearly on the wind up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 Most complete performance I can remember, possibly ever. Every single stat ludicrously in our favour and I can't remember an opposing side failing to lay a glove on us like that before. Excellent game management and made to look like a piece of piss - this must be what a proper pre season can do versus last year's opener. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 It's absolutely dizzying to think about where this team is headed, Howe certainly appears to be the man for the job, the transfers are savvy, the fanbase is absolutely fucking rabid.

Skeletor Posted August 6, 2022 Share Posted August 6, 2022 With better finishing it would have been 4 or 5-0. The scoreline flatters Forest who are as bad a team as I've seen at SJP in a long time (and I include Brewcey's boys in that). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
