TBH its safe to say forest have a better squad than us since mount and wilson left . And now the manager will have enough sense to play carvalho when he is back and fit, can see them getting top 6 easily

On what basis?

Done very well and already played the top 2 teams away , getting 4 pts from them 

They've always done well against the top teams in the league, beat 2 of the top 3 last season.

Plus there's the little fact we are just 5 games in.

Think its easy to say  two WBA fulham and Leeds will finish in top 2 tbh

Last year you said Forest were much better than us and would finish way above us, Stoke and Boro were likely to finish top 2 and for the past 2 years you've said mid table is the best we can hope for. It's easy to say things but more often than not it doesn't work out how you expect it to. Fingers crossed you're wide of the mark again and Forest don't get top 6 ?

Our side was literally younger than yours, and we also made 8 changes. 

Sorry, you're not having that. 

That isn't true, but its not exactly a huge difference in terms of the ages of both squads. You can only beat what is put in front of you. You put out a very young team who looked a lot better than ours even if it did include 3 of our u18s players. Those u18s and maybe Hamer as well are the only players who aren't usually around the first team squad or in the first 11 - even Buchanan has played a couple of times in the league. It just seems petty when we can't accept we were well beaten by making excuses about  the youth.

Forest - average age 23.81

Johnson - 18

Semedo - 21

Worrall - 22

Ribeiro - 22

Mir - 22

Cash - 22

Figueiredo - 25

Samba - 25

Lolley - 27

Bostock - 27

Adomah - 31

 

 

Derby - Average Age 22.09

Sibley - 17

Whittaker - 18

Buchanan - 18

Clarke - 22

Holmes - 24

Evans - 24

Paterson - 27

Shinnie - 28

Hamer - 31

Davies - 34

 

 

 

 

 

Bennett - 23

Fair point. I even fact checked the ages, seems you're right in what you posted. 

Still, 3-0 and no shots on target.. 

That tends to happen when the focal point of the attack has 9 career goals in 120 appearances
