Wow, Watkins from range, how often does that happen? The type of finish you see Brazilians and Argentinians score. Fuck off Alyson (sic), Ollie's at the wheel!

Gotta feel sorry for those, who went for an early cuppa.

Maybe we should be trying to score from outside the box, the central defence is too congested

Ahem

Alright Mister Emery, we already know you're a football genius.

Forest completed just 67 passes in the first half, the third lowest total by a team in the first half of a Premier League match this season.

Great goal and fully deserved. Lots of possession without creating too much, Buendia not involved at all, so maybe swap him out for Malan or Sancho but any change will likely be delayed now we’re in front.

Not involved much directly, but he's occupying one of Dominguez or Anderson every time we decamp near their box by playing quite narrow, so he's doing a job for the team, certainly.  Not sure we have a like-for-like replacement without tweaking the formation a bit?

If they continue sitting deep, and we get to 60 minutes with the same score, I'm all for changing him for someone with a bit of pace to isolate a full-back, whether that's  Malen or Sancho...
