That article was interesting to me. Basically not having the 'solutions' if a team comes and plays deep against us. Trouble is the better you do, the more it happens. This is basically the problem we've had all along.
We was good enough to break teams down in the championship but I feel the premier league is more of a physical challenge. We lack those kind of players Everton have that can battle. It is the right balance we need. Once we upgrade few defensive areas and new striker we will be looking to improve. Bueno is nowhere near good enough. How long can Dawson keep carrying us? Kilman inconsistent same as Semedo 1 good game followed by 2 bad. If we are serious about being a top 10 club you have to cut out the silly errors
Agree with most of this, most teams are just making up the numbers in the Premier League sprinkled with the odd punching above their weight periods.
We aren’t serious about being a top 10 club. GON has stated many times that his goal is to stay up.
He has stated that the brief he was given is to stay up. There's a difference.
i respectfully suggest that might be splitting hairs.
can’t edit sorry (please
Our current level, many would agree is in the region of 6-9 points better off.
I doubt that would be his goal under more ideal circumstances, and with greater support in the transfer market. I'm pretty sure he'd like to aim higher.
Are serious, or aren't serious?
I was t bigging up Lage was as such....was just responding to the post that said O'Neil is getting all the criticism and he couldn't fathom why when he was the best we had and nce Nuno....
id rather him there than albionTruly horrific thought in my mind to imagine St Nuno ending up with that lot in that place.
Porca miseria
Usual distortion of his statements. It was his initial goal, only!
you obviously didn’t read the post i was replying to when you said what you said.
The tenth place finish under Lage would have been great if it weren't for having eyes.
He would Buy Us instead and sack Jeff..
Oh FFS, I'll end up wishing he'd gone to Stoke!
A fire sale is exactly what will happen at Forest next season.
Would be an interesting read, sights set on Conte? Maybe they’ll poach Pep. Also shocked at outsiders opinions on Nuno, we were so exciting to watch back then. The last time I felt we had a chance against any team we played… those days are long gone.
What do you mean? We beat spurs and city this season.
Yes, fantastic results. But the majority of us didn’t think we had a chance going into those games… that’s the feeling I’m talking about
Mendes rubbing his hands
When we played Arsenal away in Nuno's first premier season, and Helda Costa of all people absolutely terrorised them. Arsenal were lucky to come away with a point. That was the game where the penny dropped for me of how we absolutely didn't fear anyone under Nuno.
Not sure it’ll work. Nuno likes his teams structured and needs a pre-season to drill those structures. Unlike last season we don’t have a mini pre-season.
