Was embarrassing at times the way they almost just stood with foot on ball and hands on hips. Very odd.
We pressed a couple of times and they shit it and gave us possession, we then seemed to stop it. Very odd performance and odd management imo.
Until Gnonto came on, I don't think anyone pressed their keeper. Aaronson used to be reasonable at doing that.

First thing I'd do in summer is go get a central playmaker. Don't care if he's a 6, 8 or 10. This team looks rudderless without one.

If Southampton go down and we stay up I'd be in for Ward-Prowse. I know people say he's a one trick pony but when ya see him live ya realise how good he is. Poetry in motion. Picks ball up all over and his vision and accuracy of passing is just insane.

Sick of Orta spending £80m on 3 or 4 players on the continent that turn out to be passengers. Just pay Southampton what they want.
Could do with Sinisterra staying fit for a while to see if he can pull some strings.
Would of been interesting to see what Bielsa could have done with Liam O'Brien if Leeds hadn't fucked about as usual. Not a playmaker though.

Aye I remember being pissed off we wouldn't stump up the £15m for O'Brien. He looked a good player at Huddersfield. Mobile, good passer, got stuck in.

Seems his career has gone to shit now mind. Just googled him. Finished a "disastrous" loan at Blackburn and is on his way on loan to DC United.

Wouldn’t say that tbf. He didn’t really look out of place for Forest earlier this season. Just got overtaken by a mental spending spree. Would quite happily shell out 10m for him next summer when we’re facing Bristol City (a) on the opening day.

Followed by a Tuesday evening home match v Preston North End. A battling 1 all draw. Joffy off the mark for the season.

Don't think it was 15 million, around about 9 million.
We offered 3 million then I think we went higher but with stupid add ons.
Bit like the fucking around with James.
Then we paid scum a stupid fee

That Japanese guy was the best player on the pitch. Probably cost them £2m from Hoffenheim or summat and we get stuck with Rutter for £35m, who resembles a puppy chasing after a butterfly

Yep, £2.7m he cost them. 1 Rutter gets you 12 Mitomas.

We just need to survive Orta one more time as he's fucking off (apparently) at the end of the season.

Let’s hope he does, abysmal on the whole. Think the damage may be done though.

Aye, 2 out of 3 signings are avarage/poor. Not sustainable in any league. We'd probably be in league 1 by now if he hadn't struck gold with Bielsa. Fans were chanting Orta out well before Bielsa came when he was signing dross like Grot and Cibicki.

Bloke's a plank.
