Bristol City v Nottingham Forest Match Day 1


Recommended Posts

"Played some ok stuff, two good chances missed. Bristol got their set piece goal and happy to sit back. Lots of spoiling tactics as usual from them, time wasting already. Imagine if we were winning it would be noticed a bit more."

Love the bitterness already. Piss boiling in Nottingham.

Reasonable half. Faded after a bright start but Maenpaa has had nothing to do. 

Forest certainly spending much more time in our half than we are in theirs. Pato not getting on the ball enough. We look dangerous from Corners though thanks to Eliasson's delivery. Need to find a way to keep the ball more in their half, Taylor for Pato perhaps...

Well so far so good, the midfield has looked compact and Brownhill probably the best player on the field.

Most of our problems have come from Paterson giving the ball away unnecessarily or trying to be too clever clearing a ball, he is the weak link.

It's a a cagey game but we seem to be proving ourselves as more of a 'team' Forest look like 11 individuals, I think also the first half showed how much better we are when we get that early goal, the trick now is getting the second. 

The defence has looked strong so far, concentration is now key all over the pitch.

Yeah some sour comments on their forum already. Although this one made me laugh:

Murphy charges the goalie down, goalie sees who it is, pitches up a tent, sets up a little gas burner, makes a cup of tea, has a game of solitaire, then picks the ball up with Murphy around 5 yards away.

Sitting back apart from having 2 cleared off the line, obviously.

Unless Paterson proves himself in the next 6 games, it seems likely he'll lose his spot to Weimann, with Diedhiou up top. Sounds like he's not winning his place back yet.
