    Last season, if you took Forest's terrible set piece defending out of the equation, they would have been a solid mid-table side. Also, when they managed to get Murillo and Boly on the field together, they were one of the best defensive partnerships in the league. Problem was that Boly could barely stay fit. So if you plug Milenkovic into that, you've gone quite some way to explaining why Forest have drastically improved. Add Woods' form and Sels being outstanding and there you go.
    That'll be 500 quid please.

    • @-dizzoj-

      We only signed Sels at the end of January last season too, and before that dropped a fair few points to goalkeeping howlers. Got to mention as well there was some horrendous luck in terms of decisions going against us last season, and I swear I'm not just saying that. Maybe not quite Wolves level but pretty close.

    Forest fans knew something special was just around the corner. In a poll taken at the beginning of the season. Fans of each club were asked how optimistic they felt about their teams prospects for the coming season. Forest topped that table.
    Us forest fans have known that a change was coming, all the signs were clear to see to those who truly watched. We didn't expect a champions league charge, granted. But we knew that the media was going to be getting a shock.

    One thing that wasn't mentioned was the fact that Forest got promoted a season earlier than expected - this was the reason they had so many loan players and players not good enough to play premier football. They had no option but to buy. They managed to stay up by pure guts, determination and commitment kept them in the prem. The forest fans were so optimist this year in that pole as they knew once we managed to consolidate and get the players they needed to compete then they would once again be a force to recon with. I think they are still ahead of schedule but because of the belief, spirit and a great manager with the players playing a style that suits out makeup they have managed to maintain the progression.
    A quality assessment guys and great to see Yates been picked out. He may not be the most talented but he sure bleeds Red and an example for younger players that its not all about talent - hard work and commitment and using your brain can get to far in life and football!

    Not a bad assessment of Forest. The only significant omission would be the fact that in the 5 games in the first half of the season in which we had over 50% possession we were still undefeated. We won 3 and drew 2, so “giving Forest the ball” isn’t really a way to combat us. However, if opponents want to try giving us the ball more I’m sure the team won’t mind!

    An interesting point. When Forest pass, they’re absolutely phenomenal at it. When conditions are right they’re passing very tight to create conditions for traps to play that effective attack. It obviously helps with such quality in the attack. Spot on re Newcastle finding a way though, but that shows you how difficult it is to play against them.

      First, United were quite clearly bigger than them, especially by the turn of the century.

    Forest play to their strengths. I have supported Forest since 1969 and when we play fast counter-attacking football it has brought us success and has been highly entertaining. I don't knock possesion football, it is highly succesful for the few clubs who can afford world class technically gifted players, but I find counter attacking much more exciting to watch.

    Oh my. Not often I hear Villarreal players mentioned. Barry has been frustrating to watch this season. You can tell he has talent but he's not elegant in any way. He tries things but it goes awry as often as it works. His touch needs a lot of work. He sometimes moves like he's mid growth spurt and hasn't figured out how long his legs are. That inconsistency paired with the injuries to others offensive forwards and wingers is why our goals have shriveled up. Doubt we move him but if he stays, he needs to take advantage of this time to fully lock down a starting spot.

    Forest's style and success are reminiscent of Leicester in 2016. We all know the Foxes won it that year; could Forest do the same? No:
    • EVERY other team had a mare to varying degrees - Leicester won it with just 81 points from Arsenal in second on 71
    • Vardy in his prime, Mahrez and Kante - 3 truly exceptional players
    Could Forest be expected to maintain this level of performance year on year? Unlikely:
    • Look what happened to Leicester when the other teams spent big (again) and got their act together
    • Wood is having the season of his life but, at 33, this feels like a last hurrah
    • Forest have only scored 30 goals this season - 13th place
    • Counter-attacking football that prioritises defense has a higher floor and lower ceiling than other styles imo
    • Big investment in new players and contracts will be needed, which will come under scrutiny of PSR
    • If Forest deservedly finish in the European places, the extra games will mean they need to buy, and also rotate, players which could disrupt defensive solidity
    • A large part of Forest's success so far is down to the manager. Will Espirito Santo stay if a job offer comes in from one of Europe's big(ger) boys?
    I'm loving Forest doing well this year, even as a Liverpool fan who's watched us make a right sow's ear of both games against them. Genuinely hope they carry on doing well.

    The disrespect before the season started was so poor. I didn’t think the season would be like this but most forest fans were thinking after a successful transfer window, we’d have a good season.

    Only 2 minutes in and already feel the need to chime in with the expected goal discussion. We're comfortable out of possession and don't concede much at all (include xGA), yet we're managing to score the first goal in the vast majority of our games. Is that not a very key influencer on our xG figure? Why would we push on to score more multiple goals if we're so comfortable defending a lead?

    There’s many ways to play football guys. Look at Real Madrid side in 2011/12 for example. They had stars in every position and they are the best counter attacking side and scored a lot of goals from defending corners.

    The last bit is wrong. Looking at the crap at man united elanga was badly overlooked. Ragnick played him but they are an impatient bloated club. CHO same story at chelsea. The recruitment by forest has been the best in the league. They found Marillo on some beach in brazil😂 Aina best rightback in the league was free. Best of all is nuno who mentors players like Neco Williams to elite level. Lastly ryan yates is actually a very good footballer his play-acting is getting a little annoying. Stupid yellow against liverpool etc.
