Hank shoots Skyler 2,094 Posted December 9, 2020 2 minutes ago, Canary Wundaboy said: I'm happy to see Kenny back but he's given the ball away every time he's had it! A bit harsh maybe. Yes he gave it away once or twice sloppily but he played some nice passes, chested down a McGovern long kick for Sorenson and also plucked the ball nicely out of the sky to retain possession for us... Did perfectly well I thought! 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Big O 225 Posted December 9, 2020 How great to see us bring on subs again the quality of McClean, Cantwell and Tettey. Makes such a difference to have these players available again and the quicker we can get hudgil, Dowell, Gibson, Placheta and Rupp back into the squad then we will be there or thereabouts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hogesar 9,657 Posted December 9, 2020 Our results with our amount of injuries are absolutely incredible. Some seem to be taking it for granted but I'd love to know if any club in the history of the championship has been able to produce these results with a similar injury count. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

canarydan23 4,060 Posted December 9, 2020 Let's be honest, we were playing a team in record levels of bad form and scraped a win with a fortuitous deflected goal. It was pretty poor. But we were up against a ref who wanted Forest to win and obviously with our ongoing injury crisis so gotta be pleased. Can we all now agree that Stiepermann shouldn't be anywhere near the first team? I don't know how much more evidence you need. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ricardo 7,381 Posted December 9, 2020 Can't be critical of 3 points but I expect we will need a stronger side out before looking convincing. The twenty minutes after half time were much below average. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BroadstairsR 2,155 Posted December 9, 2020 (edited) Some tired legs there at the end. With so many on the injured list and a sparsity on the bench many of the players starting today have put in a lot of miles over the last two weeks, and it was telling. Nottingham Forest were capable of exploiting this more and more as the game progressed and it was a good thing that we could at least bring a couple of front liners on, albeit straight off of the treatment table, in order to grind out the points.

Il Pirata 249 Posted December 9, 2020 We're still far from our best. Hopefully we've turned the corner with injuries.. I'm confident as a few more return we're going to hit top gear and start hammering a few teams. Big thumbs up for Zim tonight too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is exactly that - people seeing what they want to see. The amount of times a player whos not flavour of the month loses possession once and it quickly becomes a fact that "all he does is loses the ball!" Kenny was fine when he came on, pleased to see him back as we will need him for rotating the midfield and keeping players fresh. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
