Others might interpret what you see as "a melancholy persona" JC as being calm and authoritive.I have no emotional stake in Nuno. He was brought in to do a job and he's not doing it well. Of course it would be madness to sack him, but I have not great hope that his melancholy persona is what we need to galvanise a squad going into a battle for survival.
Aina or Tavares would seem to be key to this.It's a simple fix. We just need to get back to his first few games where we went out trying to win, rather than not to lose.
Get the defence 10 yards further up the pitch and tell the whole team to go out there and score goals.
I think either would definitely help balance the left sideAina or Tavares would seem to be key to this.
It's amazing the difference Tavares made to the way the team played, never thought I'd say that from his early games.Aina or Tavares would seem to be key to this.
3-2 defeats incoming!It's a simple fix. We just need to get back to his first few games where we went out trying to win, rather than not to lose.

Yes we will concede a few - but there's goals in this team when we play positively and teams are genuinely frightened of us when we get in the mood.
That's kind of the rub isn't it. Feels like he got sick of losing 3-2, so tightened up defensively a bit. With the end result that we now generally lose 1-0.3-2 defeats incoming!
Pretty much chap. I don't think style has anywhere near as much to do with it as the many weaknesses at the club tbh.That's kind of the rub isn't it. Feels like he got sick of losing 3-2, so tightened up defensively a bit. With the end result that we now generally lose 1-0.
Dunno, there's still 2 places below us!he's taken us as far as he can.
The Nuno Espirito Santo Rolling Scorecard 23/24 edition
Luton 1-1 Forest
Another disappointing result where Forest failed to capitalise on their superiority and made basic errors to give away their lead.
Forest were off the pace early on, but grew into the game and were largely the better team for the majority of the game, without ever really dominating against very limited opponents. The lads were decent going forward, creating some good chances, but once again largely lacked the composure in front of goal necessary to take the game away from the hosts. The initiative was again conceded and it wasn’t the greatest surprise that Forest couldn’t hold on and they often appear unable to do the basics correctly, despite repeated reminders.
A break before the next one gives a chance to once again drill the basics on the training pitch. It needs to work this time.
Nuno cards a par to remain at +3 par on The Rolling Scorecard.
