3-4 chances Brentford have had now that should have been goals.

Weak in the middle again. THB still off the boil.

I guess I am the only one who doesn't think the starting lineup is a problem. All players mentioned are on the bench after playing midweek. Good options to have to bring on.

Already out injured due to a facial injury that looks like it'll need some serious stitching.

Probably going to be McCarthy in goal tomorrow then?

Would be amazing and a great signing for us. But surely we'd need to loan/sell Aribo or Smallbone first.

Hopefully being dropped from the England squad today won't have a detrimental effect on his decision.

I'd give Wood and Edwards a break. Obviously lacking match sharpness.

No, probably already injured!

We found our new striker!

Bella-Ketchup on the bench I see. No Tall Paul though.

Ah.. never underestimate Bazunus ability to let the ball fly through his paper hands or just not quite get there to save a shot.

Getting Ings back strikes me as a bad move even for free (and probably on huge wages). 32 year old who scored 4 goals in 50 or so appearances for his last club who deem him surplus. Would he really recapture his form and score the goals we need? It seems doubtful.

Whilst we might think we should compete with Forest, the relative values of the squad and the kind of money they've spent is miles away from us. As it will be for most of the rest of the teams here in the Prem. Back to trying to punch above our financial weight.

Smallbone seems too weak at this level. 1 dimensional, looks like he's playing at his absolute limits physically with nothing left to give.

That's the game done then. Two 1-0 defeats doesn't sound as bad as it could be?

Better half so far but nothing to show. Then inevitably fall behind. 62% possession though...

Or stop getting him to beat the man and be the creator. Have him on the end of things to finish off which is what he does best.

Forgot Diaz was playing.

Sugawara really getting stuck in working hard. Great work from him too.

Walker Peters quality at all levels.

Someone is missing from the middle. Forest always have a spare player. Both Downes and Smallbone too for forwards.

It's a good thing I think. We've rode our luck but the players now know the standard required of them. They need to up their levels if they can. No room for laziness.

A real lack of pace in our team. And Forest seem to have a man extra.

We gave it a go against 10 men but worrying lack of clinical finishing. Ultimately because of the flow of the game it's a point dropped although I expected none anyway.
