    Forest look like the team up for this.

    Sluggish, poor passing no pressing from the Reds

    Probably eager to avenge that sickener we dealt them a couple of months back

    The stats seem to suggest we’re bossing possession and have had more meaningful attacks. Sounds like much of the same from the end of the season - better team, but no end product. A lot have tipped Forest for promotion so this should be a good test.

    Come a lot more into the game in the last 10 minutes - still neither side has created a clear cut chance

    I’m still not convinced with our LB position. Biggest weakness and I would have hoped we got it sorted seeing it’s a problem for a while.

    Ritzmaier isn't the answer, I'd rather have Jordan Williams in that position seen as he's another that gets selected regardless.

    Think we've been ok. Plenty of possession but forest look well organised at back. Think Woodrow's looked lively and Williams and Anderson been solid.

    I’d rather have oduor there as he’s left footed and better than both Williams and ritzmaier

    70% possession, 5 shots to their 2 according to BBC.

    Just need that cutting edge. We're solid on the ball, it's just decision making in the final third as per last season

    Think Ritzmaier has played ok. We look fairly well organised and tidy with the ball. Just short of 70% possession at half time. Mowatt and Styles working well together. Promising signs for the season, regardless of how this finishes.

    His problem though is he doesnt hold his position something both Ritzmaier and Williams are pretty good at doing. I think both those have played well first half

    We’re playing fine in my opinion but, as said above, we need a cutting edge up front.

    Williams seems to be playing at left of a back 3 to me. Hard to tell from tv footage as you never see the whole pitch.

    Shots up to our normal standard, not pressing as much. Victor hasn't impressed so far. I would give Frieser a run out for Victor
