Definitely, think they might need to start worrying if they don’t get decent money for Akpom to reinvest, they looked absolutely toothless today and the disconnect between their defence and attack was massive. Really shows how important their loanees were last season, makes me glad we’re buying the core of our team these days.
Just looked and Steffen, Archer, Mowatt, Giles and Ramsay were all loanees. Not easy to replace, definitely not buying a group of that quality.
Just had a look on their forum and they are really critical of recruitment and are using us as an example of proper recruitmentToday’s game was an interesting matchup given our respective seasons.
We’ve managed the situation with Hamer and Gyokeres far better than they have with Akpom. Moreover, we’ve replenished our squad and look better for the churn of players we’ve had.
Great result today, 3-0 does flatter to deceive because we should’ve conceded 1 or two goals. Eccles and Sheaf stepped up massively, but we 46 games we will need more quality.
On to next week! Bring on Swansea!
You say we were Outplayed in midfield then name our two midfield players as our best players, make your mind upWell , on reflection and very drunk in the Chestnut last night(hate these early kick offs) that was the most flattering 3-0 I've ever seen. Out played in midfield, but Middlesbrough do that to teams. Having said that I thought Sheaf and Eccles our best players but we desperately need a new Hamer
When palmer ran out of energy boro midfield took over and they should have at least equalised if not gone ahead. As soon as wright and saka came on the energy upped and we were in control again especially when Kelly came on for palmer and sheaf moved further forwardYou say we were Outplayed in midfield then name our two midfield players as our best players, make your mind up
That was more to do with Dasilva, Lati and Fadz fucking about with it at the back than anyone in midfieldWhen palmer ran out of energy boro midfield took over and they should have at least equalised if not gone ahead.

For the chances yep agreedThat was more to do with Dasilva, Lati and Fadz fucking about with it at the back than anyone in midfield
I know, very contradictory but it was a strange game. They had to work their bollocks off. Even more so with the amount of times Palmer gave the ball awayYou say we were Outplayed in midfield then name our two midfield players as our best players, make your mind up
Isn't that what a squad and substitutions are meant to do!When palmer ran out of energy boro midfield took over and they should have at least equalised if not gone ahead.

Course he needs to last longer thoughIsn't that what a squad and substitutions are meant to do!
That’s what she saidCourse he needs to last longer though
Would you rather be a Luton fan or a City fan right now? Personally I am glad Dabo missed. Another season to build a better team - using Vik & Gus money plus anything DK throws in. Luton are outclassed, just as we would have been.

I remember this from the game. He hesitated when the angle was open for the pass and then it became more difficult by the time it looked like he wanted to play it.Was looking at the highlights and spotted this in a move that led to a Godden shot. Sheaf is capable of the pass to Simms here, we just need to get attuned to his movement as he was in with the right pass.

And Godden absolutely berated Simms for doing the same thing to him, a few minutes later.Just rewatching (how good is the build up from Dasilva and Sheaf BTW?) and came to this bit just as Godden shoots and Simms had moved into an excellent position for a pass and an easy goal.

Yeah, and he was right to! ,
I think having all your strikers desperate for a goal at once isn’t always the best thing. Hopefully now Wright and Godden are off the mark Simms will grab one and they’ll all relax a bit.
That reminds me we are playing Sunderland soon...
Save that for a couple of weeksThey need to delay kcikoff
There’s our new songITS ALL WRRRRIIIIIIIGHHTTTTTTT NOW!!!!
We would have walked the division with Hamer. Now we’ll only finish fucking secondSheaf, Eccles and Godden immense today. Hopefully that calms the bedwetting over Hamer’s departure.

You all want your brains testing.Id have much rather had the massive cash injection and been planning my next away trip to Spurs,Liverpool etc rather than what I am planning, a Friday night game against Hull.
Everton nailed on for the drop, they are falling apart on and off the pitch.You all want your brains testing.
A year of misery moaning on here about how poor the side are and how the investment has been rubbish, 'taxi for Robins', McFadz is not this level, Godden too old yada yada yada. Being thumped 4-1 or 4-0 on a regular basis home and away. Then ignominious relegation by March (just hope we get more than the 12 points Derby County managed). No thank you.
Last years' team was built on very narrow foundations. Altho Forest pulled it off, building a whole new team from scratch is very difficult and best done in the lower league. Interestingly neither Luton or Sheffield have been able to do it
And anyway Forest are my tip for relegation this year along with Luton and Sheffield.
