    Just seen Brentford third goal. Isn't a player in our team would score a goal like that. In fact don't remember the last time Forest did score a goal like that.

    One in which the striker controls the ball with his hand before hitting it? No, I don't remember us doing that either.

    I confess, I hadn't seen that angle. Fuck you for taking away my prejudices, without that I have nothing left.

    Literally on Saturday, one of our players teed up a volley for himself from outside the area with his left thigh and scored it with his right. So I'm not really sure what you are looking for in terms of "a goal like that" - exactly the same thing?

    Keinan Davis maybe? [Edit - Assuming you are ignoring Taiwo]

    exactly

    Couldn't see the goal clearly from the other end.

    But yes someone to take a ball, back to goal swivel and get a shot in.

    If that's what Danilo did then fair enough.

    Not seen Taiwo do that as far as I remember.

    He did one a bit like it towards the end of last season. Southampton was it? Controlled on his chest in the area then swung and scored.

    And I'm pretty sure it's exactly the kind of goal that Morgan could and would score, and although it's early days Nuno seems to be encouraging him to shoot a bit more (which is obviously helped by not playing him on the right wing).

    Fear not my dwarfish furry friend, for tonight we are at Habs.

    Prejudice away.

    This was one of goals of the season and definitely in the running for the top spot for me. Everything about it was great. The ball to Taiwo, his control [watching it back, he doesn’t control it just pivots, which is even more impressive IMHO], the shot. Aces.
    Don’t know if this will work outside the US

    The Athletic, amusingly, have found an example from last season when Gibbs-White moved the ball away from the foam marker and Niakhate moved the foam.

    Made ourselves look a bit daft there. Can't believe we've only had two shots from free kicks this season.

    Not really, given we didn’t score and the point of the complaint was if VAR should be checking.

    There are times we have have had players unfairly sent off against us too, but it doesn’t mean we can’t feel aggrieved when ridiculous decisions like the Boly red card happen.

    The general tone seems to be everybody cheats so it's ok to cheat rather than let's try and stop everyone cheating.
