Forest are all over Derby thus far.

True, hope Hazard has field day there.

no as they have 8 clean sheets in 9.

I think you miss the point. The reason why they keep clean sheets is because they are set up so defensively that they don't have the capability to score a lot of goals. It doesn't matter how good your defense is, there is very little chance that you won't concede against the top teams. In fact Spurs were very lucky to only concede one against Arsenal. There were a lot of last ditch tackles. When Spurs go behind they weren't able to change their style to challenge in that match.

I don't watch much of Chelsea but I'm surprised that Hazard hasn't lighted up the premiership as I thought he would.

15/1 both sides to score in both halves. Unlikely?

He answered a question which asked if Spurs had come back from behind to win this season with an accurate response.

Let the O's keep up their winning streak

Although he hasn't done a lot, you can already see the extra bit of class Will Hughes has in the Forest-Derby game.

Oh really. I think the response was meant to be sarcastic.

Why would you think that?
Q- Have Spurs come back from behind this season?
A- No, they have only been behind once this season, the 1-0 defeat v Arsenal. They have kept clean sheets in the other games they have played.

Sarcasm?

Sarcasm?
-------------
Of course it was, the response was to point out the clean sheets as the reason WHY they haven't come behind. A non leading answer would have been a simple, No. Thats why I cleared up why I think they haven't come from behind. Clean sheets are celebrated as a positive by the pundits often to the detriment of attacking play.

Where is the sarcasm? You asked a question, it got answered.

Ok, Sarcam is the wrong word. It was leading answer that was worded to illicit a repose.

Calm down you two, the match is about to start

Cannot see it that way. You asked a question, it got answered.
I think it is more of a case that you asked a question in order to start an argument when the correct answer was given.

This has bore draw written all over it.

posted on 28/9/13

Dj, the only one arguing is you. as is often the case. If it would help, I won't post in your threads.

Jenius, you are accusing someone of having an agenda (headband, not me). To me that is trying to start an argument.

this is the worst argument ever

posted on 28/9/13

I am glad he has an internet warrior like you to protect him.

The response obviously worded as an answer my question with another point. I asked if Spurs had come from behind? The answer to that should have been NO. What has clean sheets got to do with it?

Jenius, surely it does answer the question given that you know the only time they haven 't kept a clean sheet was against us, when they lost.

No that I want to get involved in your spat.

posted on 28/9/13

He was illustrating the answer with facts. Wouldn't make much of an internet forum if every question was answered with a "yes" or a "no".

they can't come from behind if they don't concede
