They're quite happy to sit deep and let us try and play through, which we can't, or get it wide and cross it which they're dealing with easily.

Just feels like Forest have been better and have a really good game plan to negate us and get at us. I don't think we've been that bad, just herded into looking shite today. This is just the style we play now, when it works it's glorious, when we can't score it'll be frustrating.

Gifting them that second goal was a killer really.  We aren't playing well, but still look capable of creating a chance.

This is going to be virtually impossible now they can sit deep.

At least I've got going to pick up the mother in law for dinner after to look forward to.

They just sit deep, shove and kick the opposition a lot (and get away with it), and hoof long balls into the channels. It's fairly primitive.

It can work well if you concentrate, the referee is obliging, and your opponent gifts you an early goal.
