Fair play to Forest/. Tactically great and showing why they’ve the best home defense in the league.

Also encouraged by Utd , playing a lot better and moving the ball well but lacking in the final third, but that’s due to the quality of Forest defence.

Agreed on both counts.

United have been really good this evening. Far better than in some of the games we’ve managed to win.

And Forest have done what they have done all season.
 
It was a sitter. Any premier league striker should be burying that.

Except getting relegated, this is up there with one of the worst seasons I’ve ever known, from both managers as well….just poor.

It's not that bad! Been nothing to play for is all.

Even Bowen would have struggled with that chance as it was behind him

Best I’ve seen United play for a while. Forest, as you say, just doing what we do well.
 
Knowing how some here love stats, take a look at those from the first half of that game. Only one team in it according to the maths.

😉
Yes but unfortunately you had Garnatcho on your side that wasted most of the possession you had.

UTD played very well but the final ball is awful.

Deserved a draw imo but Forest defended very well.

Hugely encouraging from United, BUT, I’m not sure I can recall Sels having to make a save.

I hope Amorim makes the right noises in his post match comments. Because he’s been rightly critical when we’ve won games playing poorly. He needs to be equally positive following that performance.

Forest are perhaps the best defensively organised side I have seen this season and can be devastating on the break. They play to their strengths and they do it really well.

And the less said about Garnacho the better. Awful. Decision making and end product both woeful.
 
To be fair, Elanga terrorised them all night. But I agree Yates should have got it
Yates got it in the ground. 👍

Very impressed with Neco too.

Bit concerned about Aina going off. 🙁

Man Utd can play some pretty passing but were absolutely toothless with their final product. I don’t think I felt nervous once about conceding.

And did I see it correctly - Maguire brought on as a striker?!?! 🤣🤣🤣
