A win today could see us eight points clear of the relegation spots! It could also see us level with Villa on points and up to 12th in the table.
Last Game Overview:
Well, that was a nice surprise!
The Good: Staying in the game and taking our chance. Wood the super-sub!
The Bad: Man City’s finishing (thankfully) and Aurier’s injury.
The Ugly: Haaland’s dive. Grealish’s Olympic level diving.
Special Mention: Felipe taking Haaland out of the game.
Overall Record:
Currently we stand at W45 D26 L46
Injuries / Signings:
Aurier, Boly, Henderson, Kouyate and McKenna are all out for this one.
Awoniyi, Lingard, Niakhate and Yates could all figure.
Your Opposition Story:
My best mate in Oz is a West Ham fan, so they’ll be a few of us huddled round the box for this one.
Form:
West Ham Home Form - W2 D1 L3 GF6 GA7
Forest Away Form - W1 D2 L3 GF2 GA11
Forest are 1.6 PPG over the last ten games. West Ham are 0.6.
Team:
Navas
Williams Felipe Worrall Lodi
Freuler Mangala Shelvey
Danilo
MGW Johnson
Prediction:
1-0. Moyes is sacked at HT with his head paraded around at FT.

We had stopped these type of games though. Think we’ve missed Yates a lot in recent weeks. I haven’t seen the goals but Worrall has struggled this season and without Aurier we look dodgy down the right.

I also don’t think we stopped them, it’s just that other teams kept missing chances!!

We definitely did change the way we play after the Leicester game. Obviously Leeds and Man City should have beaten us but apart from that we’ve been much better

We now have the worst goal difference, almost another point against us, today could be massive, in a bad way.

At least Saints and Everton lost. Hopefully Bournemouth too but we need to move away from others and atm we will get dragged into it. We absolutely have to beat Everton now

I thought we were better then, obviously not. Everton at home next week. Just hope our home form doesn’t desert us, or we are bang in trouble.

We need to just try and get a 0-0. It’s almost like we are too attacking and teams get at our defence too easily. But somehow we don’t score either so it’s tricky to work out what the problem is really? We have to try and get some clean sheets, it’s the only way to get points away I think.

Your right, we did change something but it feels like we have slowly crept back. I don’t really know tactically what the issue but teams get at the back 4 too easily. I guess that’s something to do with the midfield set up?

We were doing ok til Shelvey went off, to be replaced by Ayew was strange to say the least, it had to be Mangala for me. Very strange substitution.

That's what screwed it for us, to go to two midfielders when we weren't even controlling the midfield was suicidal. Boy, are we missing Serge...
