They're just a very balanced side, aren't they?

Proper winger Hudson-Odoi, stuff we can only dream of with Ayew on the wing

Think that they only paid £3m plus £2m of add ons for him, compared to the £5m we paid for Ayew.

Everyone getting excited wolves losing but forgetting Ipswich are playing better football than us and getting results. If anything, wolves will go down with us and Ipswich will stay up! They have an identity and are difficult to beat 

They got slapped 4-0 by Newcastle at home the other week, we're shit but their only two points ahead of us because they've also been shite

How have they not discussed the handball?

Hadn’t given it much thought until tonight but 5 of Forests front 6 all came from other PL sides. 7 of their 11 came from other PL sides. We rarely sign players from the PL. I understand why. But it does show you the benefit of buying players who are already at the level. 

What are you talking about, have you seen our team?

Just off the top of my head, Winks, Skipp, Coady, vesty, Ayew, De cordova-Reid, Edouard, Buonanotte

[Its11th heaven]

If we beat palace next week and Wolves and Ipswich lose to Newcastle and Brighton respectively we'd be out of the bottom three. I appreciate that’s three if's but it's possible.

We need as much help as we can get, any struggling team losing might help. We just won't know how much it helps right now.

They are out there and sadly we don't seem to take advantage off it. One example always springs to mind, Pulisic cost just shy of 20m, he's now valued at double that, can play right wing and attacking midfield.

 

We somehow spend 25m+ on Skipp, 8m on Ayew. You see more and more these days that players at top clubs would rather play for a team further down if it means guaranteed game time.

[Supergray22]

Hate to say it but I quite enjoyed that first half. Wolves look a different team under the new manager and had good chances but Forest look lethal on the break. 

[splinterdream]

Wolves look decent attacking wise, but all over the place at the back.

Don't want a strongly worded letter from Wolves

I see a glaring flaw.

That's not happening.  We are not beating Palarse.

Isak breaking Vardy’s record and Forest winning the league would basically mean 2015/16 is wiped from the history books.

better football.....huh

you watched them play their last 2 games?

I wouldnt call it better football, theyve been effective but it isnt better football, 

tbf think the last 4 goals theyve scored have either been pens or from mistakes from defenders

You know what's even worse? We could very plausibly get relegated at the city ground.

Only if it was erased from the history books. No one can take that season away, even if we got stripped of the title. If you were there you were there!

Both things remain extremely unlikely

Isak might happen. 

 

Liverpool win this league at a canter.

Look at it a more realistic way...

Forest could finish 2nd this season and they wont really be able to brag about it because.... we won the league

Just this thread? The whole forum can be summed up like this

I would say their football is better, they don’t lose many games and very hard to break down, you can get past our defence like a hot knife through butter. we’ve beaten Bournemouth when they had about 13xg and scored a lucky 93rd min win v saints, got battered against West Ham as well, what was it 33 shots faced? 
 

We played horrendous football under cooper, yes has improved under Ruud but we have also lost the last 5 games.

 

Will happily eat my hat if we stay up this season but it would be a miracle. Not even linked to any good players and we need about 5 in January
