We just have to find a way to win this, not just win but win style. A statement performance. Need to reignite that fear factor again.
Prediction
Arsenal 2-0 Nottingham Forest
Make or break. I am going to make a bold prediction here. Unless we take three points from this we won't end up in the top four or above Sp uds.
A disturbing pattern has been set over the past fortnight where we pay in the weekend for playing senior players in midweek. Last night only exacerbated this by ending up throwing the kitchen sink in stages at PSV only to find the sink was flabby and made no difference.
Need to break this cycle with a convincing win. Forest are poor enough for this to be possible bu they must be encouraged at the sight of Charity FC re-emerging and their own great performance against Liverpool. It really could go either way.
Let's see. I hope for the best but I also look at the alternatives. I am sure the management team had also analyses the issues before yesterday's game.
It isn't being negative. If we can't beat Forest we won't beat Chelsea and that probably means we go into the world cup in 3rd place - which I'd have killed for at the beginning of the season - but if the roblem is the smallness of the squad well that isn't going to go away in December, and neither is the management of resources.
It isn't just about yesterday. The performance against Leeds and Soton were poor.No compliancy and also would be nice to back being be clinical. And not have 15 attempts go by.
People overreacting for no reason about yesterday result yes wasn't our top level performance even mikel admit that but that what happen when you play 9 games in October and just depend on 16 players the level will drop.
Agreed but only yesterday the defensive performance was too poor most top teams struggling to be fair so i really can't expect 8/10 performance every game specially away from homeIt isn't just about yesterday. The performance against Leeds and Soton were poor.
Yeah we were always going to drop points or lose. But against Leeds that second half we were destroyed. And only for Bamford we would have drew or lost that match.Agreed but only yesterday the defensive performance was too poor most top teams struggling to be fair so i really can't expect 8/10 performance every game specially away from home
We're only just 1/4 of the way into the season & you're making these kind of predictions ?Make or break. I am going to make a bold prediction here. Unless we take three points from this we won't end up in the top four or above Sp uds.
