Our top scorer is Lucas Digne

Goals from defenders are always welcome.

Indulge my curiosity Davester, what do you feel is different between this season and last under Benitez?

I seem to recall similar arguments being made, admittedly by the Benitez out camp, to yours. Which you rebutted at the time.

Because last seasons team was better...and they were rubbish.

Last season we had 7 points after 3 games Arsenal had nil, they nearly qualified for champions league, we nearly qualified for the championship, try to control your breathing guys, less panic

Difference being Aresnal are actually good. We have a threadbare squad getting smaller all the time (Doucoure now out for at least 3 weeks) which is severely lacking in quality, especially in the front third. It is extremely concerning, especially given sides who are ‘relegation rivals’ are launching hundreds of millions around to stay in the league. We’re offering sides 3 quid and a packet of mint imperials.

Baffling why club haven't gone all out to get a CF in this week.

I know it's early but Forest is the sort of home game club needs to win to keep above the dreaded dotted line. So obviously less chance with this front 3 out.

Can't just be giving away these home games and gambling on winning many of them post January. It worked last season but it's a dangerous tactic. Let's remember Burnley were beaten 3-1 in the fourth game of last season and that was pretty critical come May.

And it's also easier to give a forward a home game where they'll be more of the ball and hopefully chances to convert. Will be tougher to make impact in the tricky away games at Brentford and Leeds. And then it's RS.

I'm sure the hierarchy know what they're doing though.....

Got lucky last season

Won’t get lucky this season

Looking pretty certain this time.

Nailed on if we can’t make the signings we need. This is the most putrid team I’ve seen in my life.
