Our team's net cost over the past 2 seasons is about £90 million. Isak cost a reported £70 million.
Some people need a reality check.

Noticed early on he just wasn’t moving off the ball, didn’t seem up to it. Just seen footage of him warning up with some kind of nervous twitch and coming to think of it he was doing it during the game. Not having a go at the lad but I don’t think he should be playing top level football (trying to)...

This isn’t Traffords fault or a dig at Trafford but we are simply going down because kompany refused to play the best goalkeeper at the club for the first 28 games of the season, simple as that.

No, that's not the reason.

Great motivator and done magnificent last few seasons, earned his stripes and even had to ground share at one stage.

Claret tinted glasses mate, if you think our football is pulling the tv audiences in you’re deluded.

Tinted or not, we played a very entertaining style of football at Old Trafford.

In his press conference in the week he described us as “a previous club”. Didn’t even name us Like you, don’t think he cares either way now but do think he wants Everton to finish strongly.

Isn't Sean Dyche a Forest fan?

We need 3 wins.

(Win and a draw) 4 possible points minus (Draw and a loss) 1 point actual. Jakub “we’d be 4 points better off” :lol: :lol: :lol: How about this (for the eternal optimists) ;) We have every chance of 2 wins = 6 pts in the bag :D Error vs Brighton results in a draw -2 Error v Everton results in a los...

I know what you are saying I'm going full bloodied with the way I'm looking at it I'm not considering the draw as a fallback default position.

That is actually brilliant

boatshed bill

Try this Jakub:
A)We are winning = 3pts
B)We stop winning (draw) =1pt
Deduct B from A = ?

He will argue his point(?) all night if you let him

So we were beating Brighton (3 points) before Muric’s error converted that to 1.

And we were drawing with Everton (1 point) before Muric’s error converted that to 0.

And you think he cost us 4 points?

Get the abacus out Jakub. Boatsheds figured it out

Feels like 4, but it's not.

It's the state of play where we was before the errors occurred that's accountable. It's not error mitigation that we scored before conceding against Brighton.

Actually you and I are wrong, aren't we?

It's 4pts unfortunately if you paused the live games before the errors you are beating Brighton 3pts & drawing everton 1pt.

This is correct.
And it's the nature of the errors that is cause for some concern.

boatshed bill

Idealistic.

I still think that Trafford will go onto have a great career and possibly be England's number in the future but at the moment Muric is streets ahead of him. In a way this demontrates the polar opinions on here. Muric may well be better for BFC right now, but he is not "streets ahead". Both keepers ...

Kelleher to be sold apparently, presumably wants to be number one.

Unless the whole story is just rubbish.

I think Kelleher wanted to move to Wolves, but the move was blocked by Liverpool.

Amazing really, scouts at one of the top clubs in the world obviously rate the lad and yet the experts on here don't.

Is Allison leaving?
Or Could it be Trafford replacing Kelleher, who is highly rated and should be a first choice somewhere.

We should be doing everything in our power to keep Muric.

And if we have to sell him, look at Cooper at Plymouth.

boatshed bill

If we drop:
Muric 1st choice (if he's prepared to stay).
Trafford on a half-season loan to a decent European team.
Find a club for Peacock-Farrell, free transfer?
Vigoroux as back-up.
Casper 3rd choice.

Likewise I think foster has been rushed back from his hernia, had we been sat comfortable in the table I don’t think we would have seen foster again this season That's a slightly different interpretation, though.

At the time he came back Ekdal was injured, esteve hadn’t signed, we had O’Shea, Delcroix and al-dakhil

I still find it surprising if true.

I don't see Wilder as the type to deliberately accept a poor performance.

Forget fines or points deduction. The PL is a pantomime, Forest should be made to play their games in clowns' shoes.
That would teach 'em

I'm not sure 6 centre backs is needed. I suspect we'll sell at least one and possibly 2 whatever league we're in

Sell Beyer and McNally I'd guess.

boatshed bill

Strange if true, because I would be very surprised if our fitness staff or manager would allow an unfit player to get rushed back too soon.

Every time I log in here it’s negative whining non stop even when the teams playing well. Far too many simply willing to die on their early anti VK stance.

You are not wrong.
Some of us just want the team, manager "project" to be a success.
Sometimes it feels like a minority

Great result but why is he persisting with Fofana again up front. He hasn’t played well in around 3-4 games now. Foster scored last game, give him his position back up front!

i can only think it's contractural.

Cullen took a while to adjust to the PL. He did start the season in the 1st 11.

The problem is that Forest still have to play Sheffield United. If they win that, then we would have to beat either Newcastle or Spurs. Sheffield Utd will score against Forest, they could even hold on for a point. Luton are shagged out. We beat Newcastle and it's possible we can take it to the last...

Last 8 matches just the 1 loss hmmmmm previous 27 with 20 losses speaks for itself

There has been all-round improvement, and an almost settled back 4.
Not decrying Muric's contribution, but the O'Shea/Esteve partnership is the best we've had.

Maybe not the same naivety we show each week at this stage of the season! Berge is certainly not an inexperienced player.

i look at it as a collective thing, it's a team.
Easy to point at individuals, actually I remember Ben Mee doing that sort of thing a few times.

Thought we played well today despite our usual naivety which seems to always result in us conceding.

Naivety is totally understandable given the very little PL experience in the squad.
These lads are learning on the job and it's starting to show.

Why change a winning side I thought Odobert & Foster with Assignon attacking down the middle would be too much for Maguire/Casemiro but no in comes Fofana. Utd where there for the taking and VK let them off the hook maybe the sea air at Brighton is clouding his thoughts.

I disagree with you x6

TBH I detest it, it ruins the match-day experience.
But if its decisions are to be seen as correct then that's where it should end; the later questioning of it makes it even worse, pointless.

I think he will. Don't think people put as much store into a few bad results when the overall trend is a positive one. First season in Europe and injuries to key players, are quite important mitigating, contributory factors, to a club with a relatively small squad.

Where's Potter at present?

I'm not sure Di Zerbi is likely to get a move to a better club than Brighton for starters.

FWIW, I think his rant is because it's one of those events in a game where a Chelsea player bundling over a Burnley player is never going to be a penalty and (second) yellow card, and we all know that to be true.
