Draw probably a fair result, could have been worse for us. But not really what we needed.

Not a great performance but we battled hard for our point.

Draw probably was a fair result and we battled hard for our point too.

Posession % typically low for us, but we had an attacking threat at times which kept City on their toes. Season slowly turning for us, Wharton back next week will help.

Special mention to Will Hughes, a derided player by opposition supporters but has been fantastic and again tonight.

Hughes played a great game.

It felt like Eze played a touch selfish at times.

This is dream time stuff for we Forest fans. 2 of our goals were due to comical defending from Man U, and our defence was leaky, but 3 points is 3 points.

How's the pre-season super computer tips looking?
 
Amorim has gone down the EtH route by telling porkies already

Asked for his view on his first few weeks as United manager (five games with two victories, only one of which has come in the league) and results that are alien to him - his old club Sporting had won 16 games out of 17 before United brought him to England - Amorim said the perceptions were not true.
"I had this and worse in Sporting in the beginning," he said. "The feeling for me is the same but for the world it's completely different.
"You know Sporting in Portugal but Manchester [United] has a lot of attention."

Yet Amorim's version of events in Lisbon doesn't quite stack up.

After he took charge on 4 March 2020, Sporting won six out of their first 11 games and drew three.

Their two defeats came in the final three games of a campaign interrupted by Covid-19 in away games against FC Porto, when Amorim's team lost 2-0, and Benfica, when they were beaten 2-1 by a goal two minutes from time.

"I had this period at Sporting and if you are a little experienced in football this happens with a lot of clubs," he said. "We have to manage to continue to do the same things and improve the team because this will turn around."

I know he's trying to make it his team but they were defensively solid under EtH in the league (11 goals in 9 games), now under Amorim they are not (6 in 4).
