Match Thread Nottingham Forest vs Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[ForeverEverton]

Looking at their stats, scored just one goal more than us, 18 2nd lowest scorers, and conceded 42 which is the 3rd highest. But this is Everton and nothing is straight forward.....

If we can keep them out we stand a chance obviously and they are susceptible to conceding.

This Season:

Notts Forest 14th P24 W6 D7 L11 GF18 GA42 GD-24 Points 25
Everton 18th P25 W5 D6 L14 GF17 GA36 GD-19 Points 21

Interesting fact, we have conceded the same amount of goals as Spurs, they have scored 19 more goals. They are 4th we are 18th....

 

[ForeverEverton]

A win today will take us in to 16th and 2 points clear of the drop zone....

Looking at recent form I think Southampton are getting out of this, they have the attacking players. We were thinking we need to overtake 1 more team in Leeds, West Ham, Forest or Palace when in actual fact we need to chase down 2.

Dyche needs to find a way to score goals or we are finishing bottom, we are as bad as Southampton and Bournemouth....

When was our last away win?

 

[markde1]

Draw today, 0-0. Both teams set up like a first world war trench battle. Neither leaving their own half for fear of conceding and just long kicks between both goalkeepers.

Post match manager interviews both focus on staying in shape and a clean sheet and mention it being Somme game they can take positives from

 

[John96]

i just can't see dyche letting the handbrake off for this one.

both teams will be playing not to lose.

i'll go with either a 0-0 or 1-1.

a draw won't be the end of the world.

If he's not going out to win against teams like this then we are relegated. I guarantee Forest are playing for a win.

COYB!

John.

 

[Jeff Jones]

We need either DCL or Simms with Gray and/or Maupay in or around the penalty area when we're going forward.

This, for the rest of the season.

I can't see any other way of scoring enough goals to get out of this mess.

 

[GoldenToffee]

We'll get a penalty and none of the players will have a clue who is supposed to take it. Seamus will run over to Dyche who will tell him to give it to McNeil, who blazes it horribly over the bar.

Forest have bought that many players if one striker doesn't work they just throw anover on, whilst we have........errrmmm

They have got some injuries though.

Johnson went off last week. So hopefully he hasn’t recovered

Yeah, we can't score. The fundamentals of winning games is something we don't have

 

[allen]

Feeling good about this one.

We're due some goals.

The chances have been there, we're bound to score by accident eventually.

I think today will be the day we score a couple of bad, bad goals.

Maybe we can take one without them realising?

 

[varnish]

Imagine maupay scores and goes on a bit of a run…

More likely Iwobi finally slots that hattrick

You called them 'Notts Forest'. You'll be haunted by the of Brian Clough for ten years for that. Rather you than me, mate.

I know Forest are no great shakes, but we are favourites with the bookies… which has blew my mind.
