Igor the Interim

Not wanting to rain on people's parade but there is a long way to go. This season has been littered with false dawns - champions league wins, victories away to City and Everton. None of them really built us any momentum in the league. So let's wait and evaluate once we are safe because we are a long way from that yet.

I was very vocal about wanting Igor removed before last Sunday because given the extraordinary circumstances we found ourselves in, I felt we needed a manager who could arrest the slide quickly. Let's face it, in those first 4 games, we were really bad and he didn't look like that guy. Players like Xavi, Tel and Spence have been inconsistent this season. World beaters one minute, chumps the next. In the hustle and bustle of a relegation fight they may revert to type. We need to be patient with this squad.

I will say though Archie Gray is looking really good in his midfield role something which I think some credit should be given to TF whether or not you like him ( just like Brennan Johnson thrived under Ange). Hopefully him and Conor Gallagher (who will come good) will be rotating that position for years to come. We need to find away of keeping them injury free though.

It's great that we have improved, I am starting to warm to Igor. But we have been here before and I'm still nervous as hell about Sunday.

All fair, I would say they haven't been many 90 minute performances this season, the last 225 minutes have been an improvement.

Tudor seems to be improving the team (fitness, passing, pressing), I didn't see much improvement from Frank (can't credit Gray's improvement on him, he started first game with Gray & Bergvall and we won, then it took him something like 18 games to repeat) and I think we took so long to fire him, it made Tudor's job extremely hard.

Yeah i think people have got a bit ahead of themselves after midweek. Forest will pack the middle of the pitch, it won't be open like it was v AM - it's going to be a proper slog and not the type of fixture we've been doing well in at all.
