well that was gooseberry fool tonight. Gonna be a long season I think. Once we go behind we don't have any options coming off the bench really other than young Tyler and we cant expect him to save us in many games.
Tesche breaking his metatarsal is something we could do without but of course it's Forest so we're cursed by injuries. Out of our 24 squad places, we have Reid, Cohen, Britt, Fryatt and now Tesche out. That leaves 19 places. 18 of which will be on pitch or on bench every game. Those youngsters are indeed going to get some serious game time this season.
I thought Mills was standout tonight. didn't miss a thing in the air and looked composed and was bossing defence around, although a few too many 40yd+ long diagonals to Antonio. Hobbs was anonymous - probably scared of getting injured. Fox was his usual hoof-ball self. Too much relied upon Antonio as ever, although Ward looked busy in 1st half without really doing much apart from 1 run I remember.
We're bottom of the table now on -1 GD so at least the only way is up!
