Forest dominated middle. Probably why Amorim didn't want to go long with Lammens. Shaw should be LWB when Martinez returns and our left is all about control with Bruno/Cunha while right is direct with Amad/Mbeumo.

Lastly, Elliot Anderson.

Grew up watching him and other Spanish players in the 90s so I'm happy for Luis Enrique Martinez. Can't imagine the emotions he's going through.

Uncanny.

Err, thanks but no, thank you. Don't want that musky scent anywhere near this club nor the club have anything to do with him. Bezos too.

Always a suspect vs a more robust side with better athleticism and physicality. Tactics were decent granted the lineup, but personnel and execution didn't work, especially:
1. Poor finishing - wasted chances.
2. Poor defending - conceded soft goals.
3. Need stability in defense and midfield.

Football stats need to introduce steal just for Amad.

Surely Maguire, Ugarte and Mazraoui deserve a higher rating than this. Quite stingy considering Kevin sits on 7.5 with a deflected assist.

"we need work in the final third. We need more ideas."

Emphasis on final phase because it's collective. We are talking about that nicely weighted pass, that step out to drag or pin markers, that blindside run timing, that final ball, and finally that strike. We need more creativity.

What a complete catastrophy. Fur real. But I'm feline good...

High hopes for Dalot to exude his brilliance with Amorim in charge.

Would love to see him in action again. Bizarre the club kept the news buried when it was just a meniscus tear.

The admiration in his gaze.
The disbelief held in his grin.
Staring at greatness before his folded arms.
Staring at the richest of heritage before him.
Now... take us back to the pantheon of football, Ruben.
