Oh a nice touch which most probably didn’t see, Roy Keane went up to Yates at the end gave him a pat on the back and they had a little chat, almost a father son moment.
It was mentioned on ITV that Keane went up to Yates at the end, to congratulate him on his cross for the goal. ITV were far more complimentary to our win with Ian Wright admitting Forest were by far the better team in the second half and Arsenal got exactly what they deserved!
I noted that as well must have made an impression on Keane along with every other Forest manager who has managed him.

Spence is levels above Cash, we can't afford Spence, simple as that.
Such a shame but if we thought Cash was good Spence is a level above.
Arsenal should be in for him!

I think Arsenal will be in for him and Johnson

Tbf Cash never got to play RWB, seems like that would suit him even more.

Makes sense, Spence is literally miles the best right back in the Champ, it's not even close.

Some of this step over skill on the ball around the Arsenal players who were trying to get after him as he drifted past them with pace was amazing to see. :cool:
Played with a smile on his face. His defensive work was immense.

'Played like a Pub team.' Roy Keane on Arsenal.

MoN and Roy Keane took Ryan under their wing a bit and pushed Yates on a bit during their time here.
It's good to hear Roy Keane telling Yates to have that belief in himself during his time at the club. Roy's not one to offer faint praise. So to have him give that praise to Ryan after the match for that cross.
I guess Yates must have made an impression on Roy. It's not just about talent. But that self belief. And maybe Roy can see a kindred spirit in Yates. To a degree.

Samba- great distribution today and oozes confidence. Had all aresenals attempts covered.
Spence - wow - best player on the pitch by some distance
Worrall- robust, progressive and aggressive. Did great to get in front of lacazette
Cook- great passing and covering. I think he will prove to be a huge signing. Obviously a leader…
Mckenna- see Worrall - he is faster than I gave him credit for
Colback- I was looking forward to seeing Saka play but Colback played him better than many premiership left backs. He was aggressive and in the last 20 minutes started to attack… contender for MOM
Yates- what a cross - there was also a reason arsenal played wide every time.
garner- another MOM contender. He was everywhere and some good passing too.
Zink- neat and tidy - unlucky not to score. Aggressive and good pressing traps and professional fouls to stop breakaways.
Johnson- flashes of absolute brilliance. Enjoy him while we can!
Davis- just m pressed and gives us an option that we have needed for so long. Big and strong but good touch and no slouch. Consider he was against Ben White and Holding- he won’t be playing against that sort of quality week in week out for the rest of the season- encouraging.
Grabban- excellent and scored
Cafu- I like his defensive number 10 cameos. He is a good option to have.

Cafu really does have that willingness to press the CB which does bring the rest of the midfield up a bit.
We are better when we trigger the press- even making Arsenal struggle for penetration.
I think ‘arsenal were poor’ does a huge disservice to the tactics and application of Forest today
