Villa have done sickening January business.

It’s a short term gamble.

 

It’s easy to forget they spent £40m on players in summer who are not there contributing. Their business will catch up with them, hence looking to sell women’s team.

Anderson’s having a poor game, he hasn’t had many for Forest

No less effective than the rest of them.

Looks lost in this setup, even Yates can't get close enough to kick and foul like usual. Emery doing a number on them, they still carry a counter threat though

[Nucasol]

If this stays the same and we beat Leicester and Palace in our games in hand we’re absolutely on Forest’s heels. They’ve got the extra pressure of a cup semi final too, so I can see them struggling to keep juggling all the games.

[1964]

Forest don't cope that well when they go a goal down, counter attacking teams need a plan b

[JUICE690]

Forest have benn so passive.

[David Edgar]

Notts Forest are a lucky mid table team.

Could well be, still think they're going to get around 70 points with the home games they have (plus Spurs and West Ham away, there's points there) so we'll have to win most of our games, very tough

[Mike]

 

They're genuinely mental.

[black_n_white]

Win on Monday then we are only 4 points behind Forest with game in hand if it stays like this. 😁

This game just highlights how dependent Forest are on getting that first goal, they've managed to get that more often then not this season, but given their margins are so small with their style of play, as soon as they need to chase a game its evident they really struggle to reverse it. 

[The Prophet]

Forest's home form should see them through.

[Skeletor]

If things stay the same, then if we beat Leicester we're only 4 points behind Forest with a game in hand...

I just googled it as I was curious, and in a way it makes sense and from a very basic point of view:

 

Score first = More likely to Win

Concede First = More likely to Loss

 

But when the concede first their stats are: 

 

Games: 6 (3 games by more than 3 goals)

Won: 1

Loss: 5

Scored: 3

Conceded: 15

 

When they Score First:

 

Games: 23 (This is more than any other team)

Won: 16

Draw: 5

Loss: 2

 

Them two losses btw:

[SUPERTOON]

Our game in hand against Palace is probably one of our toughest games remaining tbf.

Yeah they can afford some games like this. It's not like the teams behind them will win every game either. If it was just about top 4 then they would have more of a reason to get stressed out about it, but even then, I also think they will achieve that.

Not sure what's more deluded. That they think there's some sort of conspiracy or that they truly believe they'd be anywhere near Liverpool if all of these decisions went their way.

Depends whether their minds and commitment to tackles start to ease off with the semi final coming up, especially after Guehi and Nketiah got sent off today.

[Dan Gleebals]

Villa absolutely nailed their recent recruitment, loans or not.  Gaining momentum at the right time as well. 

 

Don't think they will bother us but the game at their place could be massive!

Our win at their place, when you consider going a goal down and how tough they can be to break down with a lead, probably one of the results of the season by any side

Actually annoying those reds. They will be out for their game vs City, and that also means they will get some rest before our match against them.
