Win Premier League: Nottingham Forest 1 - 2 Arsenal | Tuesday 30 January | KO: 19:30 GMT | TNT Sports

Prediction

Nottingham Forest 1-3 Arsenal

 

[Synical]

Bless Villa suddenly feeling hopeful. You're still 2 goals down, guys!

 

[freeglennhelder2]

Very tense at the end. But, we were in absolute cruise control for 85% of an away game so that was a big positive.

My gut tells me this team doesn’t have enough about em to win the league. Nowhere near the spark of the first half of last season, 7 pts down in comparison on matchday 22 but you never know. TP5 and Timber to save the day!

Typical Nuno with Portugees counter play.

Huge huge three points. Especially when we play the league leaders sunday, and they play chelsea tomorrow
Could be in a great position come sunday evening!

First half was tricky to break Forrest down. They defended well. But we missed penetration in the box that we did had in the second half. With a bit of luck by Mattie Turner.

Smith Rowe to start and bench king Kai. Wouldn't be surprised.

Zinny and Jesus outstanding. Need to see them play like this every game!

 

[Riou]

Again love the "Champions of Europe you will never sing that" chant, from fans who have probably never seen Forest win any trophies with their own eyes...top stuff

Big fan of them putting the "Championship playoff winners, 2022" up on their stadium honours boards, state of it

Maybe hand your CV into Arsenal you've clearly thought of something they haven't here.

It’s basic football. If you can’t see that then you clearly have limited understanding of football

 

[Plutarch]

That was a reasonably good away performance. Forest are solid in defence under pressure but we kept going till we scored. It would have been fine apart from that very fortunate bounce under the player's legs to give Forest a goal. We're in good shape for the Liverpool game.

 

[Synical]

Now that we're going with the semantics, we need more penetration forward and Kai's limp performances pale in comparison with ESR's energetic moments tonight

'Penetration' , 'limp'
Ok, ok, Alby

Oh heck, I almost jinxed it. Thank god that was offside.

I think you're demonstrating huge levels of Dunning-Kruger by thinking that Arsenal football club haven't thought of narrowing their wide forwards in 2024. Otherwise, please let AFC know about your revolutionary ideas! You'll be paid handsomely.

 

[Energoto]

Oh

Hilarious you said that. I actually googled him because I thought surely he's not talking about the guy I think he is.

He's the most opposite of pencil-necked I've ever seen in my life You're such a joker. I'm going to have to take everything else you say with a huge pinch of salt!

Oh ffs sorry, English is not my first language, though pencil neck is a guy without a neck
He gotta lay off the shrugs

If they have thought about it, why haven’t they done it. Martinelli once again spent most game on the touch line. And was on the peripheral of the game. Go and watch Liverpool how you play 4-3-3 as wide forward. Saka is producing despite Arteta tactics because he is a brilliant player.

4 pts vs comparative fixtures last season after MD22.

 

[GoonerJeeves]

I think they can do it
They step up for the top teams

Had it been at the Bridge, aye, they'd have a chance, but at Anfield? I can't see it.

 

[grange]

We win yet I’m still angry

You actually think that AFC haven't even *thought* of narrowing the wide forwards this is priceless.

 

[BergMan]

Going out of the cups so early has given the players so much rest. No excuse not to be dominating in the PL.

 

[berric]

Why oh why do you have to concede. Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Your vision. I dont share it. It was boring.

Games where one team sits deep are always going to be boring tbh

If we didn't do what was required to win this game and break down this low block the same people would moan about the result. If we do what is necessary and get the result then its boring.

Not sure if the expectations are realistic at all tbh.
