This side isn’t top six - we have a top six keeper right back and centre forward and that’s about it. We need reinforcements.
Currently 'none' of our team or squad are top 6 material. 9th.
The Coach will be under deep, deep trouble if Forest continue this run over Christmas. You know, lots of previous Forest 'Managers' hadn't the complete toolset to do the job. MoN in particular.
Yet these 'excuses' didn't save any of them. And the recent run of form has the feel of 'losing the plot' or 'the sinking ship.' Forest have won 1 in 7. 2 points from 5 matches. The one thing in his favour is that the players are still playing for him. And the fanbase aren't calling for his head. Yet. The current run isn't great and the football doesn't seem scintillating. Solid and direct? 'Solid?' Well. The former tight ship has started leaking goals. And if you go two down or more in the 1st half in matches you're not going to win football matches.
Can't defend can't score are worrying signs of a ship adrift.
Sow being back is a plus. And it seemed to help. He was a big part of Forest going Top 6. Getting Rib' back would help massively. Drafting in the physical prowess of Benno might freshen up the CHs.
The target for Aitor was rumoured to be Top 6 by January. That's the target? 9 days to get back in the top 6 and to get a couple of good results.
Forest need a win to get back in the top 6 or he's probably going.
Personally, I'd rather Aitor, MoN or 'The Coach' to have had successive transfer windows to actually build something. But that didn't turn out to be the case. Aitor got about a year. MoN a trivial amount of time to win promotion after Aitor lost the plot.
