Jugsi Posted 6 May 2013 Share Posted 6 May 2013 Can't believe anyone can knock Wood, if Knocky had missed you could have questioned his decision but we scored so it was absolutely the right thing to do, end of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MooseBreath Posted 6 May 2013 Share Posted 6 May 2013 We were 4 on 1. If you don't score in that situation then you've made a big fvck up. On another day with less riding on it I think we would have seen knocky feed in Wood and Wood simply tuck it away. For Wood to have to pass it back to knocky was an indication that it didn't go as well as it could have. Knocky's finish was also very close to being blocked. Obviously that's all fine in such a high pressure situation, but to call it "brilliant" is wrong imho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LanguedocFox Posted 6 May 2013 Share Posted 6 May 2013 Something I had not noticed is how involved Knockaert was throughout the match. Not just his goal and his fantastic cross for King's header, but also the way he was nutmegged in the build-up to Florist's first goal. He probably played out of his skin because he was so pissed off about that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingfox Posted 6 May 2013 Share Posted 6 May 2013 Imagine if it was Vardy or Kane in Knockaert's situation and skied it over the bar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SystonFox Posted 6 May 2013 Share Posted 6 May 2013 All I keep thinking is what if the player on the line had diverted it! Don't. It went in! I don't blame wood for pAssing his first touch wasnt great and the keeper was fairly close to a few more split seconds hes on top of that ball and has it smothered. Passing was the right thing and yes Knockaert could have perhaps had it saved on the line by the defender BUT HE DIDNT IT WENT IN AAAAAAHHHHH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trav Le Bleu Posted 6 May 2013 Share Posted 6 May 2013 All I keep thinking is what if the player on the line had diverted it! Exactly! Wouldn't have had a chance if Wood slotted it home. Of course, all went well in the end, but it was miles away from being "genius"! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ealingfox Posted 6 May 2013 Share Posted 6 May 2013 Was unselfish and the smarter option to pass, certainly made it easier to score, but do feel Wood's touch of a rapist nearly gave it away, taking it close to the keeper. Clumsy first touch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clumsy first touch.Agree it wasn't a great touch but on the other hand that committed the keeper to come off his line thus making it an easier chance for Knocky.

People really do like to concentrate on the negatives all the time on here. Not aimed at you Fair enough but it would be difficult to argue Wood took a bad first touch with that in mind. Still great awareness and unselfishness, do hope it wasn't through lack of confidence that he didn't hit it first time, but as has been said he's an unselfish player. Must be a fair few assists he's racked up by now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To have taken that poor touch but regain your composure to find Knocky was top play imo.Yeah think you are right about the assists. The one for waggy earlier in the year was great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhatsHisName Posted 6 May 2013 Author Share Posted 6 May 2013 I actually think it would've shown more a lack of confidence if after his poor first touch he just took a shot That is so true. Many would have taken a shot as soon as they got the ball, but it took courage and confidence to do what Wood did Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC Prussian Posted 6 May 2013 Share Posted 6 May 2013 Even now, whenever I watch this clip and get to the mark where F*32st just equalized, I still expect the worst and Bolton to score a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScouseFox Posted 7 May 2013 Share Posted 7 May 2013 Dyer's won penalties against Ipswich and Bolton, and Forest's own goal in the home game was his cross/shot. Some stats count them as assists too, but I don't think the FL does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
