6pts from 6 games is definitely not good enough. There needs to be more urgency to our play, too much of it in the middle is going nowhere, there's no threat out wide so everything comes through the middle all laboured as two of our worst players happen to be the midfield.

Disappointing as well to see us fold and concede late, again, and also tactically we should have threw on the additional midfielder when we got our noses in front to stiffen things up instead of continuing with 5 attacking players, knowing how mentally weak we still appear to be.

Watch the two goals from Forest and it's blindingly obvious that the teams achilles heel is the heart of the side in the middle, we need to get Jedinak and Tshibola up to speed asap because Gardner and Westwood even at this level are poor. The two of them directly involved in the first we conceded one playing a terrible ball and the other being pushed out of the way and beaten when a stronger midfielder would have broken up the play there and then. He's a little girl. We need a tough bugger in there.

Very disappointed, same old same old again.

Forest - 2 attacks and 2 goals from a bunch of loathsome, cheating, cynical bastards.

Us - Not enough urgency 1st half, not enough urgency from Grealish throughout, it was like watching him last season. Ayew MOTM, the forwards looked good when we pressed harder and got them more involved. Bunn probably could have done better with their first. Everyone else neither here nor there.

You can see how much sides panic when we're attacking - we're not getting the break of the ball (like Forest had today, twice) in attacking situations and in particular the penalty area. I'm convinced that part of the not scoring lies in the way we let teams off easily when we've just had a decent chance; penning a side like Brentford or even that shower today in their own box and you'd see too many chances to keep them all out. And if Ayew could put his head up more, that would be fab too.

Lansbury in particular looked like a smug, horrible c***
