Good workout against a good team
Few players a bit rusty still and all four goalkeepers could have sat on a deckchair with a cigar
Few nice moves and one touch football
Milenkovic looks solid and the rest of the new recruits looked the part
Business starts against Bournemouth though.
03 Aug 2024 05:53:18
You can have all the moves in the world but if nobody is capable of scoring a goal nice passing is meaningless.
See your man Awonyi made no impression!
03 Aug 2024 06:47:43
I thought Tauwo looked sharp with good movement, I was overjoyed to see him play again - hope he can stay fit for the season.
Great turnout for a friendly, must be one of the highest ever attendances at the CG for a friendly.

Let's see if he last half a season!
03 Aug 2024 09:23:15
Yes, great that Awoniyi is back, we will really need him this season, must be an absolute nightmare of a player to defend against.
03 Aug 2024 09:25:19
Can't see all the building work being finished for new season
The new turnstiles are an improvement provided we don't get to many taking bags in.
Good to see the wall gone and two extra rows of seats in lower clough
Agree awoniyi looked sharp when he came on, would appear that richards won't be part of nunos plans.

It was a friendly
03 Aug 2024 10:23:23
Murillo looked solid except for his passing, he's got to get that sorted, or the oppositions mid field will just keep picking up the loose ball.
03 Aug 2024 11:04:45
It was garbage. No shots on target. Murillo looked solid? Another reckless penalty given away.
03 Aug 2024 11:13:13
Yes Donald, that’s the worry isn’t it mate.
No way that work will be complete, very strange that a fairly simple scheme couldn’t be completed in the close season.
03 Aug 2024 11:44:29
If you want to know what class is. That was Milenkovic last night. If he's 12 million then Murillo is worth about £12. But as usual if we win it's a marvellous performance. If we lose or bore draw, we'll it's only a pre season friendly ?.
03 Aug 2024 12:02:36
Take that concert was a problem to starting the work.
03 Aug 2024 12:22:07
Awonyi looked sharp!
Blunt I'd say and according to Nuno has a long way to go before he's fit!
Get a Striker in who's capable and isn't made of Fairy dust!
Sick Note Sally!

Balloons I have some sympathy for what you say 2 weeks from the season I was hoping we’d be keeping the ball better, Murrillo seemed to be trying too hard to impress to me, Danilo seemed to think his team mates were in yellow, I was impressed with the bit we saw from Anderson, but overall a bit disappointing I thought,
03 Aug 2024 13:57:40
There is no disputing that our ball retention was very poor.
03 Aug 2024 14:05:43
Murrillo will not be with Forest much longer probably after Xmas moved on the club still has a few to get rid of next season's books to balance can't believe Jonjo is still our player, Dennis and, Worrall to sort out so 60 million for Murrillo is a good deal for the club.
03 Aug 2024 14:49:34
Your right jester, every player has his price, and one player doesn't make a team. If they can get 60mil for Murillo then that's good business.
04 Aug 2024 06:22:14
Don't read too much into friendlies. Only about fitness. Nothing else. It only matters in the proper matches.
04 Aug 2024 10:34:40
Pollyard not two weeks before the season starts, some playing pattern should be emerging,
04 Aug 2024 11:38:18
Exactly stevie. It's one of the worse games I've seen in years
Polly put the kettle on ??.
04 Aug 2024 20:26:51
A playing pattern didn't emerge last season in preseason games either, struggled to beat notts
No one can tell me that most players were giving their all?
It's a workout and is just that to get fit for the season, if you want or expect preseason games to be exciting and full of goals, then you'll be disappointed.
05 Aug 2024 14:30:18
DTP I didn’t expect it to be exciting, I wasn’t disappointed, i i actually think Villarreal were too similar to us, we like teams who attack us, they played on the break like us,
