    I'm still struggling to see the justification of spending 60M+ on McAtee and Hutchinson.

    Hutchinson put more balls in the box than the rest of the team combined. Maybe you weren’t watching?

    That’s a properly bad result. Really fucking shit.
    Pressure piles on Ange.

    Hutchinson was better than Bakwa and Ndoye.

    Wood missed sitters. Morato and Zinchenko are appalling at defending.

    It all feels very shit. Ange will be gone by Christmas.

    Zero intensity 1st half. McAtee, Bakwa and Ndoye look worringly lightweight.
    Threw everything at them 2nd half but for all that the only big chance created was Wood's header.

    Jesus has two efforts and Hutchinson one well saved too.

    Explain to me how that is somehow a counter to my point.

    That’s 24 losses in his last 38 league games and 1 win in the last 15. He doesn’t have a lot going for him at the moment and unfortunately for him after no win in 5 small positives won’t cut it.

    So Nuno was almost certainly right that Traore would have been the best option. Surprise that given his lack of experience of the premiership. Was anybody singing we want our Nuno back?

    Sort of reassuring that Forest have gone back to being a chaotic mess, playing shite football and rattling through managers.

    I thought those were efforts we might have scored, but Wood's was the only one we should have scored.

    You might argue with the justification of spending the money on Bakwa, Kalimuendo and Ndoye based on today’s performance.

    I think that so far Bakwa and Ndoye have both shown enough to make me think that the money we spent on them might work out. I have yet to see enough evidence to feel the same way about McAtee or Hutchinson. I don't think that coming on when Sunderland were parking the bus and banging a bunch of fairly harmless crosses onto the heads of the defenders goes very far towards justifying almost forty million pounds.

    That wasn’t all he did though as the commentators couldn’t believe we had two strikers on who didn’t get on the end of the low ball he whipped across the goal.

    I actually thought Hutchinson was a positive on a predictably bleak evening.

    I thought Hutchinson was good. Created a few chances and almost scored himself.

    McAtee on the other hand ....

    He is our most expensive signing ever. So far he does not look worth it. He's 21 years old and maybe it's not fair for him to have that pressure on him, but he does.

    Just to clarify the booing at the end was not for the referee.

    Ange will take us down.
