Forest stamp Loppyā€™s card? Could be the next manager sacked in the premier. Heā€™s coming across as someone who hasnā€™t got much of a clue how to play the players he has. Another red card for the Hammers trying to become the Arsenal of the East End :smile:

Third Forest goal was great, with the comm saying ā€œyou can sense another goal comingā€ and then next second, bang!

I watched the Newcastle Arsenal game, Pope didnā€™t have to make a single save, felt like kinda open play but not much going on at all in either teamā€™s final third. Gordon cross for the early goal was sublime.

Perfect cross, split the centre-backs, great height for Isak to attack it.

The hudson-odoi goal was a strange one, the keeper was there but somehow very late on it. It did take a tiny deflection off a defender, iā€™m wondering if he split-second assumed it would be a full header clearance.

It looked like the keeper had it covered but maybe saw it late

What a cracker of a goal was Ola Ainas :call_me_hand:t3::call_me_hand:t3:

I think Iā€™ve sent the EPL ladder screenshot to so many ManUre supporting mates this morning that a couple of them may have got it twice

How did we even drop points? Itā€™s incredible to me that weā€™re only third.

Is Niggle Clugg still playing for Forest?

Havenā€™t heard much of John Robertson, Martin Oā€™Neill, Gary Birtles recently either. Bowyer and Oā€™Hare were two others but Iā€™ve forgotten their first names. Viv Anderson and Peter Shilton. I went to a couple of Forest games in 1978 in the middle of that long unbeaten run, at the City Ground, and the only thing I remember about them was how boring they were.

The only First Division (as was) game I saw that was even moderately entertaining was Chelsea Spurs at Stamford Bridge with Ardlies and Villa playing, plus Glenn Hoddle. Spurs won 3-1.

Could never forget Peter Shilton.

Scouse have got to be happy. Arne has slotted into Kloppā€™s seat pretty comfortable.

Trevor Francis was a superstar in the old days.

Very happy with Arne for a number of reasons, first and foremost heā€™s not tried to be Klopp 2.0. Heā€™s not as emotional, he not a fist pumping, chest thumping, demonstrative guy. If he did try to be that then the players and fans would see through it and think heā€™s a fraud. Heā€™s being himself, and thatā€™s absolutely fine by me. I find his press conferences very informative, heā€™s very honest, thereā€™s no agendas or anything.

The team is better defensively, however the past few games weā€™ve slipped 1-0 behind, so it would be nice if that could stop, but overall heā€™s a great fit for the club and this squad.
