World class save by Martinez.

Buendia, Rogers, Tilemans and Watkins have all been pretty crap to be honest, hopefully one of them can take the game by thw scruff of the neck in 2nd half.
come on! No one's been crap! Buendia has been weak in a couple of scenarios but generally it's been good

Thought we’ve done well and look organised. Pressure is on Forest now.

We’ve wasted corners and set pieces.

Pleasantly surprised with Onana but disappointed with Rogers.

Clear red card which was missed! If Watkins had stayed down I wonder?

It wasn’t missed, VAR looked at it and decided to dismiss it.  Very fishy

Surely someone is speaking to the referee at halftime

Marinakis for sure.

What I can't get my head around is VAR looked at it, studs up, over the ball and straight onto his ankle and didn't even bother getting the ref to check it. Bullshit like that is exactly why 'he got the ball' is about the worst catchphrase to ever enter the game as if a knick on the ball on the way to his ankle makes it any less of a leg-breaker. It wouldn't have taken much more force for that to wreck the end of our season.

To add insult to it 10minutes later Buendia got a touch on the ball and then tripped Hutchinson with his follow-through and the ref gave the free kick.

If we keep the ball better we'll open them up.

How Anderson hasn't had a card of any colour is shocking.

Same as them really. Onus is on them though. Our crossing and final ball has been poor.
