No win scenario imo

Yeah, as dumb as it sounds winning the league last season fudged them.

It’s fudged them now because their fans are now expecting more, especially with the money spent

Yeah some seem to be in denial about the quality of football we have been playing. Opta produced a league table for Deserved league position based on expected goals/chance creation - we are 5th bottom of the league.

It's fine to say Frank needs more time etc, that's absolutely the case. Doesn't mean we can't critique what has been happening in front of our eyes. We do at least have a proven record at getting points away from home, so all is not lost....

There was an interview with frank a while back. Where he talked about how he explains to players about getting into the right position before making a cross or taking a shot to maximise chances of scoring.

All I heard from Pool fans was they were going to win the Quadruple easily after all of the signings they made

I don't like the way modern games gone with it all (just look at this thread being used to have a dig at Frank after 18 games) but having spent the money they have, you can at least understand the view that he is under pressure, they are not just losing but getting hammered in parts

It’s all fudged
Too much money and instant expectation

On paper
But anyone with eyes could see them signed 2 attacking full backs and no defensive players

Plus all the expert pundits in media and a few on here before a ball was kicked.

Forest seem to have picked up recently

 

[tommysvr]

Morgan Rogers is so damn good.

 

[Baleforce]

Forest seem to have picked up recently

I wonder why...

 

[Rafa87]

6 points separating 5th and 15th. Though I also feel the spammers and Forest will climb away from the bottom three now leaving us with a more straightforward relegation scrap now unfortunately.
