To me the Paterson situation is getting a bit like when Fontaine was continuously played despite being devoid of form or confidence. Paterson needs to be out of the squad for a few weeks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanderingred Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 (edited) 11 minutes ago, old_eastender said: HT 0-1. Stoke been marginally the better side, more quick attacking than we have had. LJ took a gamble playing Pato in No.10 role and it simply has not worked, Pato has been anonymous. What gets me is Fammy & Taylor played so well together against Stoke in the league cup and Stoke have struggled defensively against busy clever players like Taylor. LJ should haul Pato off and put Taylor on over HT, but I bet he doesn't do anything. So all the posts about us being total garbage and Stoke looking streets ahead of us is just the usual childish OTIB overreaction then. Good to know there's still a game to be won.

Constant changes by Johnson game by game and the obsession of playing Paterson , when he has been useless for 9 months , leads to a lack of consistency and performance week in week out. When is Johnson ever going to learn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taz Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Just reading through the comments about Patterson - did the Forest fans not say he was a hugely frustrating player as one game he would be fantastic, and then for 3 or 4 he'd be annoymous? To be fair I think we've had more better performances than bad from him (overall), but is he now just going through the motions? Probably doesn't help that we rarely play the same 11, but he really needs to start showing some consistency and start kicking on. Mind you he's not playing great at the moment and staying in the team so who knows. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can’t give the team credit when they’ve won without dominating, does that mean you are happy to praise them when they lose despite dominating? That happens too.

We had three 9th place finishes on the trot and supporters were generally pleased with that. Then we looked at Leicester and started thinking that 9th place was a bit feeble really. It changed expectations far beyond what was realistic. We didn't really struggle too much over the 10 years. We just went from comfortably 9th to relegation in two years. None of us really know how we deteriorated so quickly. Edited October 27, 2018 by Dreamkiller Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
