[MarcusX]

Half time seems to have gone on a bit long? Or is my stream not coming back on

Clearly a much better performance. Dominated first 20, and fairly even thereafter.

 

Silenced the home crowd as well....

[Coxy27]

Is it just me or does Downsy seem extremely short of breath doing all this half time chat?

Very loud sharp breathing doing my head in.

Mate your bang on. We just don’t cause defences any trouble. 

Lack of understanding on your part.

Had to look that up as I didn't realise either, shows the only difference was the ref not wanting to do something 10 seconds into the game and bottled giving a card

IMO it was dangerous play and Cash should have got a straight red. just like Freeman at Brentford.

you’ll have to forgive me here, I’m sat at work, so following the game on here. But the more I read this thread the more it appears like we’ve been passing it around nicely on the half way line, maybe even the second third, but we’ve not actually created anything in terms of goal threat?

I wouldn't quite go that far, we are getting into the attacking 3rd and putting in some crosses, but although the crosses haven't been bad they haven't been particularly threatening either. 

Nagy is effectively linking the defence and attacking midfield, but I would still like someone who is further forward to thread the balls through for Benik in the middle. 

Game would suit Fam for Wells for me if we are to continue as we are.

How is O’Dowda playing? Surprised he started

I think that the problem may be.....the view from behind O'Dowda made it look like Cash caught him in the upper chest.  The camera behind the goal line clearly showed a kick to the mush.  Ref didn't have that view, though.

Earning his corn, IMO.

Big half for our season this. 

Literally all or bust in my opinion.

[Red Army 75]

Weimann was booked for a high foot . Unbelievable ref

COYR let's actually get at least a point please! (More importantly, a performance in a formation that makes sense though please)

[CiderHider]

Let's do this! COYR!!!!

[havanatopia]

City need to win 5 from 6 and not lose the other... It's not happening. Next season.

KP on for Weimann?

We’ll go bust if we lose?!  

[Garland-sweden]

Miss Eliassons crosses, we are doing well and I think we will make it. COYR!!!

[Portland Bill]

To little to late, we have already thrown away 6 points since the restart.

6 points while tinkering away with players he’s already had for nearly 40 games. Let’s face it, he still hasn’t a clue on which players, which formation, or the style of football the team will play from one game to another.

Pretty much, there's been some crosses into the box from COD and Dasilva, and Nagy has tried to just chip it to the right hand side of the box for Weimann to run onto. but there's definitely not been much cutting edge despite our dominance on the flanks and the industry of Nagy and Smith.

A corner at the and was headed close, and Afobe had a couple of slim chances.

To be honest as much as I want a performance at this stage 3 points is all that counts..

[JamesBCFC]

Forest have swapped what wing Ameobi is on.

Expect quite a few high diagonal balls to him to try and take advantage of his height advantage over Jay.

Not really, we've already ****** it in terms of the playoffs

Yea, or maybe COD. 

[Lrrr]

Okay that was a big throw

[JamesBCFC]

Bloody hell, that throw.

Been missing that option since Mags

[YGBjammy]

Wow that throw could be handy, extra set piece opportunity basically.

(Until we inevitably get caught out in the counter with our CBs in the opposition box )

[Lrrr]

Defenders getting a lot higher when in possession reaching half way, in previous games they'd stayed a good 10 yards deeper
