Going to the match, 3 points, scores winning goal, pint after the game, home for MOTD, wake up and watch it again on Sunday morning... I've missed this.

There's an American actor that used to be in a few things when he was younger, in his 20s, then dropped off the radar, that had eyelids like Cooper and a high hairline, was quite prominent/famous but can't for the life of me think of his name nor any films he was in :lol: Thinking 10-15 years ago.

Is this really necessary?

Aye I’m all against body shaming people (Bruce and Ashley aside), I think he has some kind of eye issues, sure I read it somewhere. Let’s not get all too RTG the way they mock AS for her looks.

I thought Wilson was quiet most of the first and second, but, he proves no matter when the chance comes, he can take it.

 

All three midfielders did really well, Bruno topping it off, out wide ASM was really good, and Miggy just needs to make slightly better decisions, think like the midfield the back four were all solid also, with Targett being the stand out.

 

Overall a really good team display, and great opener for a nice change.

 

For Forest, I thought number 19 Niakhaté was solid, looked a really good defender, I feel he was causing Wilson problems most of the game. 

 

Really great start, onwards and upwards ??

Watching the extended highlights and Willock always seems to be in acres of space on the edge/inside the box. Definitely benefit from making that extra pass instead of taking snap shots.

Their weird corner routine was hilariously bad :lol: 

It was pure Sunday morning stuff.

This is cool. You don’t see 80%+ field tilt very often at all.

 

It does kind of show we need another more clinical forward with end product though, because we had the ball in their third virtually all game but the xG is only 1.28.

A better representation of the game (compared to BBC's). Weird that Willock didn't react to Wilson's goal.

 

 

As good a strike as it was from Schar the second goal was a great move.

I just see the video for Disappointed by Electronic looking at all that jizz.

In old money though we played really well and deserved the win

I think it’s fair to say that we have the best Bruno in the world

We watched the game in a bar in spain. Kids were initially gutted our hols clashed with game. Anyway, great atmosphere in the bar. But we had 2 piece band on that night, we a cracking young guitar player who happened to be called Bruno. 

The bemused and then chuffed look on his face at the chants of BRUNOOOO! after each song was amazing.

Miggy got some stick on Saturday but, on reflection, I actually thought he provided a fair final ball on a few occasions (not all on his left foot either, I think they've been working on that a bit). It's curious that Bruno's chemistry is so good in terms of picking out Miggy's runs but there's been very little evidence of any kind of similar relationship with ASM. Feels like Maxi only ever makes dashes behind the backline when we're on the counter with loads of space.

I did think Forest would have been more up for it. Then again, they've pretty much bought an entire new XI so will probs take time to gel.

 

Still got a bit of a soft spot for them, due to Cloughie.

They were my second team late 70s early 80s when we were in the old div 2.

Bruno naturally moves to that side tbh. ASM tends to face up defenders rather than run in behind as well. ASM still has a pretty strong relationship with Targett and Joelinton
