Your Thoughts On The Current Nottingham Forest Manager

[zicorice]

We had attacking football under Montanier and Warburton. Both were hopeless. Conceding 2 goals a game and losing 50% of your matches is far from entertaining, and instead is a recipe for getting the sack rather than gaining promotion. We can’t afford the squad to be a Man City of the Championship.

Sheff Utd had a limited budget like us but we’re highly organised defensively and focussed on being good at hitting teams on the counter. That’s the recipe we need to follow.

I dont think anyone is advocating Montanier or Warburton football, both were clueless in their own way. The Sheff Utd example though is perfect and what we should be aiming for.

They were organised defensively yes only conceded 41 goals in their promotion year however they scored 78 which is 20 more than us last season. They started counter attacking much like us that season but as their confidence grew they started to properly put teams to the sword unlike us who fell away. But theirs is the model for sure.

I believe that is the why we have recruited 6 new players and are in the process of recruiting even more.

Yep

I think sloppily turning the ball over when we do win it was our undoing in last 3rd of the season. The game on Saturday was a good example. But Colback and Lolley are far more capable of helping us to hurt opponents on the break instead of ourselves. Barnsley certainly looked alot sharper, but also a bit nastier and once the league games start we should have that edge back.
