Spoke like a true Derby fan

Haha, you weirdo.

I do not see anything about Nuno or this team that gives me confidence we'll stay up.

Our only hope is that Luton continue to be slightly worse than us.

I know our fate's still in our own hands, but when it comes to survival I'm starting to think our only real hope is there being enough other teams screwing up more than us

The 2 off line clearances, Origi couldn't do anymore, brilliant defending.
Elanga did everything right, clipped keepers legs and slowed the ball down.
Overall we were unlucky yesterday.

On those 2 chances I think Origi and Elanga did all they could, what does bother me is that there was no other Forest player hitting that back post area at speed for a tap in or, at least, cause a bit of panic with the clearing defender. It happens often and yes, I know we are a counterattack team, but we should have a couple more players busting a gut to get there.

Seen a lot of Luton fans comments fuming about the ref yesterday ? What did he give us ? Apart from the Barkley perfectly good tackle given as a foul i can't remember anything else , even the Murillo one shouldn't have been a free kick , he's just built like a wardrobe.

Elanga should have put more on the ball , no real conviction .

No-one's really mentioned it but Neco Williams was fucking fantastic yesterday.

He's been superb.

Shame some of the others can't match his effort and desire to compete.

Yeah both short term and long term. The amount of shit he's taken off fans and all he's done is improve since we bought him.
Well done that man.

He has been one of our better players this season and just seems to be improving all the time.

I hear Villa are looking for a RB upgrade of Cash.
We have a good relationship with them.

A deal could be done, IMO, for 12m-ish.

Na.
He did more than enough.
It was in if it didn't clip keepers leg.

I don't know if many our players would know what "busting a gut" means

I don't think effort is a problem with the players, a couple maybe but on the whole they are busting a gut, in areas we just aren't quite good enough hence being near the relegation zone.

I can never understand the hate for him on here

 

[Will.NFFC]

Nobody’s slated Williams more than me on here, but he’s been bloody brilliant last few weeks - long may it continue because he’s somebody with the attitude that’s missing across most of our squad

Thats the thing a club of our stature can't afford to carry even a couple who won't "bust a gut" for the team

I was very disappointed with him for what we paid, he looked like a lost youth team player for so long and got bullied oh so easily.

Now he plays like a trojan and is setting an example that if others followed, we wouldn't be where we are.

I can't remember him losing a 50:50 yesterday...similarly I can't remember Sangare winning one!

Do you think within the first part of that post there might be a lesson to learn about the final line?
