I wonder what's different for this game as we seem a totally different side to the last few weeks. It's almost as though a jinx is in the ground.

Forest aren't really parking the bus. They're compact certainly, but they're still getting players forward. Emi has been the busier keeper.

We just can't seem to pass today.

think there were signs of this performance in the second half at Leicester. The quality of that first half is as bad is anything we saw in the championship. Aside from Mings, I dont think any other player has even been reasonable. most have been shocking. Forest are abysmal but tactically smart sticking MGW onto Luiz and we are struggling to put together three passes as a result. We simply have to change our shape in midfield as a result. Diamond four in midfield and move Ramsey across.

Due to his idiotic yellow, best to hook Moreno anyway and McGinn looks to be running on empty too.

This has been a pretty awful 45 mins to watch.
Which is less stressful
