Looking ahead to Sunday and how you see it going?
I don't care about performance now tbh it's the time of season where we need to battle it out and fight for the points, we've been suspect which is an understatement in these sort of games this season which has cost us dearly but with Chelsea's game looking like 3 points for them we need to keep in touch!
I think Villa will drop more points tomorrow and I can see the boys in blue taking more points off UTd?
With that in mind I'll be more than happy with a repeat of the Sunderland performance and result.

Br, I am the same to a certain point, but we have had wins without performances being great, and I think we need both now, as the performances will increase confidence.

Be a tough game, mate. Hopefully we turn up.

We've struggled against Forest in recent times. The last 4 fixtures have seen us win 1, draw 1, and lose 2. In the last 8 since their promotion back into the top flight, we have won 4, lost 3, and drawn 1. Definitely not a fixture we find easy.

All about the points, performances are secondary at this stage.

They just had an away European midweek fixture, so hopefully we will be fresher.

I read somewhere recently that of the last 15 league games we have played at Forest we've only won 1!I'm not sure if that is accurate, but if it is, that is unbelievable. V difficult game, I feel. Looking at Forest's result Thurs, I think they're getting the new manager 'bounce' and they also have some excellent players, Anderson, Gibbs-White and the 2 cbs.
Hopefully the long trek to Turkey Thurs has taken a bit out of them. We need to win for the 3pts and, just as importantly, to keep the wee bit of momentum we have going.

The past doesn't matter. Turn up, play the way we know we can, and we win.

The past doesn't matter. Try telling that to Prince Andrew WDW. ?

I think a lot will ride on the first goal, and, if we score it, how well we deal with the following 20 minutes. If we score first and immediately pile on the pressure and attempt to secure a quick second, I think we do the business. Anything outside of that will see us struggle.
Forest have our number, so Slot needs to employ some more direct football. If we go out there playing the ball sideways all day, and expecting it to magically find its way into the back of the net, we'll find ourselves in trouble.

I'd love to have the opportunity to tell him @JK.
He's nowhere near the sharpest tool in the box - a staggeringly entitled creature whose lack of intelligence and pathetic lies are finally catching up with him.
Not a fan of royalty - a bunch of parasites who sponge a living from the 'royal purse' - but he really does take the biscuit.

I think we continue to play and win comfortably.

It will be a tough game at their ground, and that has been the case since they got promoted, so I expect the same. Hopefully, we get the win.
