Notts Forest 0-0 Wolves 11/2 How did we get a point verdict thread.

[Elephant Pyjamas]

As someone said, none of:

Johnstone, Doherty, Tchatchoua, Munetsi, JSL, Arias or Hwang started tonight and we were still that good!

 

[WVWolf]

I don't think you can have R. Gomes, H. Bueno, A. Gomes, Mane and Armstrong in a Premier League team in this day and age.

They're all weak and small, and we simply got overrun first half in particular. We helped that massively by whatever approach we had, where we simply refused to turn them or play quickly.

You don't need a team of giants, but half your outfield players with next to no physicality was too much.

A. Gomes is a very good footballer, but I don't think he offers anything off the ball. We need Andre back quickly. You can see why Armstrong has a terrible record at this level.

I don't like Forest, so it's funny that we've fucked them up a bit, but overall it was embarrassing.

After the shambles against Man Utd at home, we were actually competitive in most games up until Chelsea. The last two games have been massive concerns about the manager.

Burnley (in 19th place) have double our points

They also now have more points than us from the period Edwards took over, we were above them before tonight in that imaginary table

 

[big mean bunny]

How did we get here. Utterly abject and I don't think I have the mental resilience for continuing to put myself through that. Honestly feel like I should apologise to my family for choosing my evening watching that.

I don't want to single him out but seeing Armstrong as a 7m signing and the sort of market we are in was utterly depressing. He had that well played switch hit out to him 2nd half that he just missed his attempt to control on. So depressing thinking that when this is finally over we have that to look forward to next season on a bigger scale.

Yeah but that's not counting the points we got for winning the 2nd half v Chelsea

Nearly as bad as the one Chelsea messed up on Christmas Eve a couple of years ago

That big lug up top for them looked shite

The players responded to his words at HT at least....

Just been stuck in a traffic jam for 40 mins, would take another 40 mins in the traffic jam over a rewatch of the first half.

The lorry in front of us had better movement than our strikers as well.

Remember when I thought we’d be okay and that Brentford were fucked

Not giving a fuck since week 11 is fucking awful. Even 11/12 didn’t feel like this. We’re just nothing.

That's done it, now he's gone and 'lost the dressing room'.

 

[sycophantia]

Not seen any of the game, only read the reports on here and the mix.
After a couple of draws and a win, plus the 2 signings we made last week, I'd started to believe we might be ok next season.
After tonight, I'm resigned to mid table mediocrity at best, more likely we go down again.
Don't think I've seen the mood so low on this (and other) forum in all the time I've been here. Edwards has to go at the end of the season surely, if not sooner?

 

[Lupo]

Shockingly bad in every way. Constantly losing possession, simple passes going out for throw ins, long throws which went high into the air just to come down about 5 yards from the throw. How Forest didn't batter us I don't know

 

[From Distant Shores]

Krecji and Joao Gomes gave the ball away within 10 yards of our penalty area in the first ten minutes. The team never seems ready at the start of a game. Does the pre-match talk put them all to sleep?

Rodrigo Gomes and Hugo Beuno were appalling. They kept giving the ball way. Rodrigo seemed worse as he passed to a Forest player at least twice from inside our area. Bueno's free kicks and corners were no more effective than Mosquera's throw-ins.

I find it hard to believe Pedro Lima is weaker than Rodrigo.

Whether it was lack of effort or lack of muscle, we hardly won any one-on-ones or any second ball.

 

[Deano]

I have no idea what people see in Rodrigo Gomes, he tries and he can run relatively fast in a straight line and that's about where the positives end.

He's an impact sub, which is where most of his goals and better performances have come

 

[From Distant Shores]

The game got Dyche the sack. It seems Edwards has survived.

 

[Deano]

What his role going forward? I don't even know what position is meant to suit him. He's not going to be happy to be an impact sub in the Championship surely.
