Match Thread Nottingham Forest vs Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

Think we've looked much better on the whole. Playing without a striker making us more fluid. Need to be tighter on Shelvey picking balls but they've not done much

Okay that half for 35 minutes our midfield were not in the game at all. The choice to get McNeil on the ball more was great and he's been a big stand out for us. Keane has been playing very well in my opinion. That assist for Doucoure was exceptional.

I'd have sucked you off if you'd told me we d have 2 goals in the first half.
Pity nobody did

lol

Most players do that when they miss a sitter.... Or they look under their boots.

Or pull a Ruud Gullit and sit there picking grass out of your studs

 

[daza_1973]

A goal from open play continues to elude us.

Think our second was ?

 

[Goodison87]

Everton make me nervous

Part of the deal, isn’t it?

 

[Terrarian]

Been ok today. Sad we’re waiting for him to make a mistake, but I hear ya.

I hate that pirouette he does in the middle without knowing what is around him

 

[GrandOldTeam]

Who got the assist for Doucoures goal? Some effort.

 

[Ron Burgundy]

It’s the hope…

Can’t be bothered anymore. Not going to ruin my weekend.

Should've hung in there mate

 

[navidson]

I put actual folding money on Everton not to score today

I demand all of your praise

 

[MichaelEFC96]

Massive second half coming up. Just don’t drop off. Forest are crap at defending. Finish them off!

 

[dannyboy]

Doucoure and Gueye played really well there. Onana needs to do so much more - right now he doesn't even deserve a place in the team.

 

[cooperman]

Shame we couldn't convert that Gray chance

Forest will come back out fired up. Need to keep concentration levels up

I fear Shelvey will come up with something

 

[luuk_deventer]

Really positive half in an attacking sense.

But we also look vulnerable in transition, the midfield is wide open. Onana has been a passenger recently and again, we’re carrying him. Need to see this out, it would be a massive win.

Get Godfrey off. Looking shaky, and on a yellow.
