Hi Wolfie, interesting point about Elanga. I would at least want him here for the rest of the season. My take is that I think it is a confidence thing with him. This could be the start of a good run from him. I think he's dying to make himself a real asset to Forest and the way he took his goal yesterday he could be a massive player for us what with his speed as well. Hope he keeps his place vs Spurs on Boxing Day, another goal and a victory again could put his doubts to rest. What a great season it is for us this year. Happy Christmas mate.

[@Tom-c5z2b]

Completely agree. Other than Wood, I still think there’s a lot more to come from the attackers which is really exciting considering how well we’re doing already

[@mikerivers9634]

Taiwo coming on on the closing stages makes me realise that if Wood is injured we don’t have a replacement that can offer a serious threat. Oh for a Stan Collymore who could make an impact even if the rest of the team were having an off day.

[@NFFC1979]

Everything you said bang on the money mate. I watched MOTD and the way they analysed it and what we all know about how we are out of possession, but then when we do get it we don’t hang about. It’s direct. It’s purposeful. And most importantly it’s impactful which is the key. Not this laborious, slow, pedestrian possession based game that most of these top sides play. Yes controlling the ball is very key at the top level and even for a counter attacking team we need to be able to look after the ball in spells when we are under pressure but it’s just beautiful the way we spring no messing around when we do get it. Also Elanga shed some what I found very interesting light on Nuno. He said the fact he can speak multiple languages really helps the team with the ideas and what he wants from individuals. Also having that pre season really helped and getting the signings in early. All in all another one ticked off but this can’t stop. Spurs on Boxing Day irrespective of what happens today against Liverpool we need to be confident to make it 4 in 4. Last time we won 3 in 3 we lost to Newcastle and couldn’t make it 4 in 4. So let this time be different. You Nuno reds!!!!

[@goranhrkman3789]

The higher up Forest finishes this season, the better. Not only because we want to play in Europe next season but also because of the financial rewards PL is handling out at the end of the season. I must be honest though, before this season started, I was happy Forest finishing top 14. So I have changed my expectations now. We play good and deserve the position where we are now. Come on you Reds!

[@patbrett3031]

I think it’s the triple 3-0 defeats are what give us little doubt!! But these victories at old trafford V Villa and at Brentford are causing us to believe!!

[@jasonrevill861]

I think fi Nuno had played the same formation as yesterday at Man city and Arsenal we would have got something out of them?

[@adamalexander5181]

​@jasonrevill861 I agree. He played 4-2-3-1 and going toe to toe was perhaps a tad naive or arrogant. Would rather he be pragmatic and pick up points as he did at Anfield, Stamford Bridge and yesterday

[@matty_mls]

I do think West Ham was easier because we had more of the ball, but that is the most relaxed I’ve ever seen us off the ball and it was brilliant

[@Forest-aremagic87]

I don't think it's the fact it was easy i think it's the fact we were very solid at the back and were good going forward

[@K33f11]

I'm not sure I'll be disappointed if we don't get into Europe. Top 10 is great. I think we can do it though. A couple brought in during January window and who knows? We could smash it.

[@Yodantine]

Elanga’s slide after he scored was epic btw

[@mohamadariffibrahim1202]

Tqvvvvm you reds... Remind me of those years when I attended d matches at d city ground.. Neil Webb, Nigel Clough, Carr, Pearce, Walker, Sutton in goal, Chettle, Foster.... And of course our late legendary Clough... Tqvvm again to everyone associated with d club.. esp our beloved Nuno... Felt like those years were just a few season ago.. Keep it up and COYR.. 💪💪💪

[@adamalexander5181]

The reality is if Cooper had somehow survived and kept us up we wouldn't have progressed this season and would be 15th or below as he's not a PL manager. I'm happy to say he's one of the best managers if you're a Championship club looking to progress but he's not PL level. Nuno is and was always a huge upgrade despite what some of our idiotic fans were saying. Too many people were focusing on Spurs when every manager fails at Spurs and his win record was better than Ange is doing this season anyway. The job he did at Wolves proved what a good manager he is when he gets a proper preseason and summer transfer window. And again he still isnt getting enough credit from the media or some of our own fans. As for Forest in general, whatever happens top 10 would be absolutely fantastic progress as I bet most people expected us to be still in the bottom half but maybe not in a relegation battle so its steady, fantastic progress regardless. What infuriates me is if we lose to the generic top 6 or indeed anybody and there's a massive meltdown as though losing a game now and again is somehow unacceptable as happened after Arsenal and Man City - remember where we were last season and embrace what we're doing now

[@timshipman6395]

Gotta keep Ant..💯

[@paulchester338]

It would be absolutely amazing to make Europe. But my head says we will just fall short. Even though my heart wants everything possible. But i still watch the bottom of the table and work out the points...

[@WakeUp834]

After this excellent season so far it is imperative we also have a excellent January transfer window looking at our bench yesterday didn't look to healthy, we quality reinforcement's.

[@jakc11202]

7:45 - FYI we beat Villa 2-0 at home last season.

[@ForestFanTV]

Oh yeah, literally forgot about that. 😂😂

[@davecowley7395]

I would stick with Elanga. He seems to be growing up quickly with Nuno in charge. He is growing in confidence now and knows what he needs to do.

[@AdamGdoesFPV]

Question: we’ve previously been building up to Murillo likely leaving in the summer, partly because he wants to play in European football. Do you think us being in 4th is making him think he doesn’t actually need to leave? Do you think we keep him if we get a European spot come the end of the season?

[@ForestFanTV]

I think it plays a huge part in him staying. But if Madrid come knocking i think the temptation will be too big for him

[@AdamGdoesFPV]

@ fair enough. Would be great if we could start to keep our stars rather than worry about the “bigger” clubs swooping in for them. Great win yesterday 🥳 bring on Spurs!

[@PrehistoricPro]

I would be disappointed if we didn't get into Europe now, but I wouldn't be angry unless we just stopped fighting for it (which I can't see happening). Top 10 would represent huge progress, but Europe is there for the taking. It's got to be the target now & it's a realistic goal, especially from this position.

[@sunny_d2]

I want that number 1 place i can see how we can win and control the games 🎉

[@antonywardle]

You Reds! Thanks for the video mate

[@ForestFanTV]

4th 🥳🥳🥳🥳

[@jetsetter797]

A truly fabulous result against Brentford, but my only worry and concern now is that MGW has picked up a suspension and can't play in the Spurs match on Boxing Day.

[@ForestFanTV]

Well let me cheer you up. He's not suspended

[@jetsetter797]

@ForestFanTV Really? Well that's strange, because he picked up a yellow card in the Brentford match, and the TV commentator said that that was his second yellow (one from the previous match too) which meant that he would miss the Spurs match. Something's wrong somewhere then!

[@phiggins54]

It’s never easy! Nuno says ‘No!’ to complacency!

[@michaellovley7576]

I'm looking at 36pts due to to 4pts taken off us which we still show how much we have come. Well done NFFC

[@badboy4495]

Europe would be nice. I've supported them since they won those European cups so I'm getting old. I was just hoping they might get in the top ten so in dreamland atm.

[@randoms959]

[@jamescunningham1973]

Great talking points Wolfman,Elanga,could we buy better for the money?Marinakis wants champions league,i think we can do it

[@nigelparrott6944]

No need to get into Europe,Top half will be remarkable!

[@lateraldeano]

Salah was supposed to be terrible at Chelsea so they got rid. Elanga is only 22. I think he will become more consistently good. We possibly will need a bigger squad next season.

[@bonjoote]

Must point out we battered Villa last season at home bro. It was that Mangala goal where Martinez had a derp moment

[@ForestFanTV]

yep you are correct :) I need sleep lol

[@54stevemac]

It was a great squad performance and demonstrated the tactical ability of NES.So we beat a side that was invincible at home.Amazing.Spurs next,now that’s a great post Christmas bit of entertainment.Spurs are scoring loads of goals away from home and it’s NES’ old club so hopefully we can give him a late Christmas present.h

[@Bubbadee]

Hi Wolfie, I think an offer of £50m for Elanga would be too good to refuse. Yesterday was great result. I think in January we need a striker that can give Wood real competition as first choice striker. I still think we need GK too. Sels made some good reflex saves yesterday but IMO I think his positioning; reach and decision maker are still a big concern. Happy days though….COYR 😀

[@mcdona22]

In some respects it's 'easier' to play the bigger clubs because they are free hits. Man U are a shambles so nice to win but not the real test. Villa and Brentford are very tough opponents and not routine games and the guys have done the business. Spurs better come correct or they'll be in for a beat down

[@robertosechi592]

I would have taken 8 points from these tough 7 games. The fact we have 12 points and moved up the table is a joy. Also, we have played the top 3 goal scoring teams away from home, and they have managed just 1 goal between them. Have we the best defence in the league? I'll not accept our defence not being in the top 2 in the league. On Elanga, definitely keep him. He's only 23. The point is that even when his form dipped, his attitude is great. He kept working and trying. Players like this always have a good chance of their form improving.

[@Martyn-NFFC]

wants Europe, so do I

[@PiyushMishra-f6k]

I think the least we can get is confrence nothing below it

[@sidmurf51]

Same as you man... I hadn't any worries going into this game. Bring on Spurs!!

[@alankwood]

I'll be happy with top seven !!!

[@snowysimon]

Things are much more positive at Forest, but still taking it game by game. There is still half a season to focus on

[@DavidStarbuck-mm6wb]

I’d be happy with top 12

[@markstevenson2897]

It's small margins in most games. Realistically, if Sels hadn't produced that wonder save in the second half, it could have been a different result. However, Forest appear to be far more resilient under Nuno and victories inspire confidence and belief. I thought Gibbs White was back to his best yesterday, and Aina is in the form of his life.

[@pirates503]

We are not prepared for european competition at present with our squad depth . Lets have a real good go at winning the FA cup and consolidate a top half finish in the Premiership.

[@deepee7803]

Don't tell me your shirts still in the wash bro, you got a missus ffs 😂😂

[@ForestFanTV]

Beating a small team like Brentford isn't worth cracking the shirt out for 😜

[@PhilU2nffc]

Went to the game and thought Murrio played amazing

[@dazler8550]

A Derby fan phoned talksport last night and wanted us to win the premier league . lol unbelievable

[@ForestFanTV]

I heard it. Wtf 🤯

[@Dirk-Diggler77]

For anybody who missed it, it is now a clip on KZbin under the Talksport page.

[@adamalexander5181]

No real Direby fan wants us to win the league - I don't believe a word of it😂

[@tenerifereddog3943]

I loved when the Forest fan said he'd like to see them go bankrupt 😂😂😂

[@patbrett3031]

You have to start believing that we belong where we are!!

[@immortalwolf1277]

I still have PTSD Forest doing a Forest but im starting to dream

[@TheChromeTree]

So much better without Yates in Midfield. Ball was being moved quickly

[@philcarson6731]

We are doing great, a lot depends on the new players we bring in next month.

[@pirates503]

Would we take top 8 and also win the FA cup .

[@robertrobinson2153]

U can Leave Elanga alone he's a very good player and will only get better❤ELANGA ❤🌲

[@dl703]

Honestly, our current squad is too thin for Champions League. Europa or Conference League would be overachieving. No harm dreaming though.

[@ashbrooks8720]

We beat villa 2-0 last season with Aina and another player scoring

[@matthewmcquade3068]

Its definitely a good Christmas for us i will take 4th any day be nice to iver get to Europe or win the prem!!

[@ashbrooks8720]

I would love champions league but we don’t have any players that really have played in Europe before, europa league so we can win it and then champions league the year after we aint ready for it yet

[@C1tyground5155]

Hated spurs since 1991.

[@tommyk3436]

Get Jan right then it’s more than possible we can get champions league

[@timshipman6395]

We beat villa twice

[@mattd5236]

40 points is just three games away! Europe has to be the target otherwise the target is to get less points in the second half of the season than the first. Which means the team would be going backwards, which wouldn’t bode well for next season, I for sure don’t want to go through the same pain that Wolves and Palace fans are going through this season. Besides Marinakis won’t accept regression!

[@andrewstratford4753]

Brilliant you reds oh dear the usual pundits got it wrong again !!!😂😂

[@uknowngaming5805]

tottenham will be a challenge now they can play the best football in the league or they try suicide tack tics very incositant weve got some players out and this will be a big challenge just like chealse its not a title race its just 3 points at a time

[@MrDot9]

What was it like in your house in 91 ?.

[@Perko133]

Very very sad depressed for weeks

[@whatsmyname5979]

Leicester was our easiest win😂

[@jasonrevill861]

The most disappointing thing about the season will be if Southampton don't get 12 points!!!

[@tenerifereddog3943]

Yeah I've thought the same thing. Surely they must be able to get 7 points from somewhere. Maybe if they're on 9 points when they play us we could do them a favour😂😂😂

[@alankwood]

Why dont we offer murillo a new contract??? We are not going to sell him to a premier league club , and if he and his wife are happy in Nottingham, then give him a new contract ,better than his miserable 45000 ... Let me know what YOU think Wolfie !!!

[@clearlyalunhead1109]

West ham win was easiest they had nothing

[@Bighandsdown]

Brentford are my most hated team. Put them above anyone. The fans are absolutely orrible. Pointless club, manager, owners and do not belong in Prem

[@jasongilbert8482]

Europe would be nice if its one of the two real one's that mickey mouse one not for me

[@TheChromeTree]

I hate Spurs....and my Brother played for them!!!!!

[@mohamadariffibrahim1202]

We are going to finish 3rd..

[@Kevin-j4k6f]

Only if our goal difference improves!
