Don't think they played the better football really, by and large they played the football we let them play, in front of us and horizontally. We didn't let them threaten at all, which is what we set up to do, they can have as much of the ball as they want in their own half!
Thought we were excellent today! Howson MOTM, Tav 2nd place and probably Bola in 3rd, thought he was quality defensively again.
Special shout out to Britt too, one of his best games ever for us.
Also I see Forest fans calling the red card soft but IMO he should have been off for the Stamp seconds before anyway so it evens out.
Think they got very lucky card wise, you could argue Ribeiro should have already been off & Knockaert could have had 2 yellows in 2 seconds with his stunt at the end.
Excellent bounce back from Saturday.
That midfield 3 suits us away from home, but at home I'd like to see us more offensively. Tactically spot on today by Warnock.
Britt was awesome today, love him or hate him but his overall performance today was very good. Just a shame it's only 1 in 10 from him and I think it was a performance to showcase his skills to the forest board to make a offer.
Tavernier, Howson, Britt, Saville and Bola were absolutely immense tonight.
We look so composed with Howson in midfield and there's a good link between midfield and attack with him in the side.
Massive 3pts and massive performance especially with Stoke and B'mouth dropping points last night and us having a game in hand.
UTB!
