@YouBloodyReds @Willm4445 That is where we should have gone for it in the Jan window under Nuno and done everything to get champions league. Wissa at that time when he was full of confidence should have been our player. The squad needs freshening up at that stage of the season.

[Matthew Fletcher @redfletch83]

Clubs starting to get their business done early in time for pre season, which is so crucial for a player to enable them to settle and not having to play catch up fitness wise.
I have sneaking suspicion that this won't be the case for forest yet again. Not the forest way.

[Matthew Fletcher @redfletch83]

@jaleo51 @YouBloodyReds You were cool about it all last season if I remember rightly and look at the players we signed late on in the window, never really got going and didn't find their top form. Hopefully this year with a proper pre season under their belt we will see the best of last summer signings

Emotional stuff at Trent Bridge.
One of the greatest England cricketers in my generation.
Nice for my son to see the craft of his work live. A proper leader of men! Good luck trying to replace him ECB. #BenStokesBarmyArmy

[Matthew Fletcher @redfletch83]

@ViewfromtheBpod Do Notts have a overseas replacement for when O'Neill returns to Australia.
Maybe the wickets will start turning more to bring Farhan into the team.

[Matthew Fletcher @redfletch83]

Definitely need to be braver at home next season. 4 home wins all all season is poor and should frustrate the players and management.

[Matthew Fletcher @redfletch83]

@Reggie8jb Sels is a wonderful shot stopper and good in 1 v 1 situations, Too hesitant to come off is line and distrubution nothing special.
Ortega better at the latter.

[Matthew Fletcher @redfletch83]

@kierfarmer @BrummieTricky @ForestLad94 It wasnt just gibbs white, the whole team were suffering with a massive lack of confidence and not properly organised.
Neco was just steady like he has been since joining the club
The position he plays in he doesnt put enough quality balls in the box or score 5-10 goals a seaso

[Matthew Fletcher @redfletch83]

@ForestNews_Info I felt sorry for the lad. Bournmouth's tactics were set up to expose him and they did brilliantly. We rode our luck several times. Im a big believer you need two solid proper full backs both sides. Hate seeing natural centre halfs playing there. Cunha cant even take a throw in.

[Matthew Fletcher @redfletch83]

@kierfarmer @BrummieTricky @ForestLad94 Without Gibbs white contributions this season we go down.
It is that simple. We are so lucky to have him. He will soon be getting picked for our all time greatest 11.
He is that good!!

[Matthew Fletcher @redfletch83]

@YouBloodyReds I dont think Savona is mobile enough to be a top premier league defender. Slow on the turn/recovery.
I would be looking to offload him.
What's your thoughts?

[Matthew Fletcher @redfletch83]

@theotherchemist @ViewfromtheBpod No Olly Stone and Rob Lord?
Need a bit of pace in the attack?

[Matthew Fletcher @redfletch83]

@Deano13131373 @YouBloodyReds Domingues has far better quality on the ball than Yates. I think he is a very important player to us.
Yates couldn't get near him in the training game I watched in march.
Not comfortable or quick enough when a player gets tight to him, resulting in him getting caught on the ball

[Matthew Fletcher @redfletch83]

@NFFC_CHRIS_ A premier league midfield has to more than just break up play and have the odd shot at goal.
He very rarely fizzes a forward ball that break lines.
I watched him in the open training session and he was just a passenger. Couldn't get near Dominguez or Sangare.

[Matthew Fletcher @redfletch83]

@Michael05917737 @forestmad80 If club come in with a 10 million bid, then you need to move him on.
He isn't comfortable recieving a ball in a tight a space with a player in his face.
In today's game he spoke to Morata and Milenkovic in a break of play, about not giving him the ball there. You can't have that

[Matthew Fletcher @redfletch83]

Get in!! What a job vitor has done.
Was getting worried at one point under Dyche.
Hats off to the owner too, the big decisions he often get's right.
Let's learn from our mistakes this season and any new players coming on board please allow them to have a pre season with us.

[Matthew Fletcher @redfletch83]

@biltonsteve I think he is actually better playing on the left, more threatening going forwards. At right back I often think he is too reserved.

[Matthew Fletcher @redfletch83]

@Reggie8jb Sounds like you expect half the squad to go. I'm afraid if do that it will bite us in the backside massively. Ola and CHO are big personalities and central to keeping the team spirit up.
They are also top players and under the right coach you see consistent performance.

[Matthew Fletcher @redfletch83]

I have read some nonsense on here about forest now likely to lose 4 of their best players in the summer. Anderson, Murilo, Gibbs White and Williams.
Only 1 player that should go is Anderson for obvious reasons.
If we are to grow as a club you have to keep your best players.

[Matthew Fletcher @redfletch83]

@jaleo51 Hate to see centre halfs playing at fullback. Offer you nothing going forwards. That's where a lot of a problems came from. Created no overloads and our passing wasnt incisive enough.
Wood and Jesus were isolated, thought Mcatee was one of our brighter players first half.
