N’Doye is not a physical player. He is easily brushed off the ball. Technically much better than Taiwo but up front alone you want a bowling ball not a razor.
Anyway I am ahead of my time, thank you for catching up.
Chicago: Futurist.

Level on points and GD. Let's see what he can do.
-
Also Gunn looked like a goalkeeper. Not sure what the hand wringing was all about. Is Sels knackered now. Good thing we got Ortega I guess.
Watch him have a nightmare in the next game and see that cunt Pep laughing at us again.
Chicago: Preferring a scotch egg.

Not having a central striker killed them with the sending off. Before that they were getting through us on the turnover but as soon as we packed the defence they had no outlet and no one to cross to, so they didn't they just recycled endlessly. But then having lost Guehi, Wharton and Mateta in that line up that's quite a spine to be absent.
-
I'm not quite sure I saw the same game that Dyche, Gibbs-White and James Perch did (notwithstanding the obvious spin the first two will inevitably tag on).
My eyes told us we weren't 'obviously' the better side in the first half. We were wide open through the middle far too many times, turned over the ball carelessly and conceded several decent chances, while not looking that clinical going the other way.
Where I do agree with the consensus, is that it was an excellent point in the circumstances. I fully expected us to yield in the second half but, as others have pointed out on here, Palace were strangely passive and we were relatively comfortable in the end.
-
Dyche always gets his teams to make home teams play the wrong way. I think other clubs just do it to him now in retaliation.
-
Sangare should give hope to Ndoye, Bakwa, McAtee etc that you it's possible to have a poor or indifferent first season with Forest and still go on later to be an absolutely key player.
-
Sangare was great today, first half in particular I thought.
We would have won with 11 v 11 am sure.
Palace fans on train think they will be fine as they get players back after today (Wharton presumably) and Strand Larssen in.
They have Wolves and Burnley at home and expect to beat them.
So do we but I'm not sure I expect us to!
-
Personally, I think we're playing well enough to win both the Leeds and Wolves games. Getting Ortgea and Olivera in could prove to be important.
-
I thought our 2nd half performance was outstanding. To not concede a shot on target when playing with 10 is some effort, even if the opposition aren't flying. As identified above, Sangare and MGW put in some serious graft. It feels a better point for us than them with us playing 45 with 10.

Looks like CHO has an arm injury of some sort
