    Good job Nuno didn’t leave Mavropanos out this week!!

    Has anyone told the team where we are in the league, of course someone has, but they aren't playing as if they have.
  • thornburyironthornburyiron
    We will do well to go in at half time only one down.
  • buffybegoodbuffybegood
    I wonder if Kuching is going to re-classify Tierney after his performence so far today.
  • thornburyironthornburyiron
    It’s almost like all the upturn in form in recent games was just a dream and we imagined it.
  • BubblesNeverDiesBubblesNeverDies
    Looking at the bench, I can't see how Nuno is going to improve matters in the 2nd half.

    BND, With an inspiring half time team talk. 😉

    Like i said on the City match thread, if teams had watched that game and put a man close to Fernandes we have no way to get the ball up the field. a Huge problem for Nuno for not only just this game but the remaining few games we have left.

    1-0 HT

    We’ve been abysmal

    Not quite sure how we are only 1 down, well, I guess I do, Mavropanos....But that 1st half IMO we have been terrible, we've been outplayed, outmuscled and 2nd best by a mile.

    Nuno is certainly going to need to change it around, not sure how, but hope he does....
    COYI.
  • LukerzLukerz
    Started to believe we may stay up but that first half has put me back in my place
  • chicagohammerchicagohammer
    Bowens corner summed up our half….

    Maybe Villa were good but for sure we were dreadful.
    I remain unconvinced by Pablo, Soucek looks like he has lead in his boots and neither Potts nor Fernandes produced anything.

    Were it not for Mavropanos we would surely have been three down.

    Dare I say it but maybe we need to consider Killman for Potts so that our wing backs can pus forward a bit
  • LukerzLukerz
    In our position you can’t just have a few good games and results, it needs to continue every week

    Wash your mouth out.

    we have got to play forward more. we always seem to play forward then pass back. Dont think Pablo has offered much. Think Wilson and Traore will be on soon
  • claretandblueskyclaretandbluesky
    Villa are playing well but we are offering no threat for them to concern about, without Summerville we look toothless. Tatty and Pablo will run for you but lack that bit of magic. Diof is getting forward but without Summerville to link up with it goes nowhere.

    I hope Nuno can work some magic at half time as we need some.
  • LukerzLukerz
    I don’t think Nuno will be able to impact it much, we should be 6-0 down
  • buffybegoodbuffybegood
    Spurs players going down like they've been shot trying to steal a penalty.
  • PengemanPengeman
    No shots at goal and very poor up front and little creativity. Could have been 4 down but for Mavropanos. May be the late change to the starting line-up didn't help but need to change tactics and personnel.

    Wilson coming on.

    And Traore by the looks of it.

    Potts and Taty off.

    AWB got hit somewhere painful, but I'm surprised the ref stopped play.

    Edit: didn't think he got attention from the medical team, but had to leave the pitch anyway, is that right?

    We’re going to lose games between now and the end of the season. We’re having a bad day, we’re not being relegated by losing away to Villa.

    Can't understand taking Taty off, thought it would have been Pablo.

    Especially as Pablo is not long back from injury so Taty probably could last longer into the game.
  • chicagohammerchicagohammer
    Decent long throw followed up by a decent cross in by……. You’ve guessed it…. Mavropanos
  • buffybegoodbuffybegood
    Decent counter ends with Bowen's shot blocked out for a corner.
  • buffybegoodbuffybegood
    Poor corner from Bowen though, too deep.

    Forest now 2 up
