Brian Laws insisting on getting Chris Wood's surname wrong is already getting mildly irritating.

This is a frustrating performance so far. For some reason we have decided that we will completely bypass centre mid and hoof it to either Elanga or Wood. We're having a lot of the ball but we're really not asking any questions of Luton, and they've had a couple of really good chances.
-
Looks to me that we are trying to play the ball behind them, and not let them just defend with the ball in front of them. Making the pitch big when we have the ball, and working their back line hard. If we don't get a goal directly through that (and we are increasingly looking like we might), we might very well when they tire around the hour mark.
-
Except it's making Dominguez and to a lesser extent MGW passengers. I also don't like this front three, it's completely imbalanced with Elanga stapled to the left touchline and Morgan wandering around between the centre and right side of the pitch. I'm not sure how I'd do it differently, but it feels less than ideal.

Still don't get Sangare.
-
Luton look well coached. They're giving Murillo little time on the ball, and making Boly have to be the one playing the ball out. We really haven't got them on their heels and it's all very comfortable for them. I think this is a pretty poor performance from us so far.

Well hurrah.
-
Very good to have Wood scoring given we have no other fit first team strikers
-
Tidy finish. I thought Wood's run was a slow motion replay when I first saw that.
-
Not mad keen on how often Forest look dodgy in their own box.
-
I look at our bench and I'm not seeing anyone there who feels like they could change things up. This is far from a comfortable game.

GET IN

Yates or Aguilera might give them something to think about.
-
Did you see how their attacker kicked Murillo? Reckless. Send him off.
Goal!

You should have heard the idiot commentators confused as to how VAR didn't take a longer look at Sangare's "foul" in the box when he cleared the ball and made contact with Morris on the follow through.
