Just looking at the Matchweek 18 positions per transfermarket.com. Of all the seasons in the PL this is the second highest points total after 18/19 when we were on 26 points, although we had played 18 games.

20 of those were picked up in the first ten games, of course.

Was all downhill from there.
 
Considering our Club's size and relative histories, our modern day record against Forest is very impressive, P17, W8, D6 L3.

Down the years it always seemed that we had bogey teams but we were not a bogey team for other clubs..Now we can count Forest and Birmingham City amongst the much bigger Clubs for whom we are a bogey side.
 
Now only spurs and Man City have scored more goals away from home than afcb.

Conversely we have a equal lowest home goals
 
The TL;DR of the stats

Season high touches of 110 for Senesi. Despite supposedly playing left back, Ouattara managed 35 touches in the Forest final third (3rd highest). Outtara also had second most penalty area touches.

Most penalty area touches in a game this season

Solanke scores a hattrick from only 39 touches and with an xG of 0.73

Terrible. He even glances down beforehand just to make sure that he hits his target.
If that isn't deliberate violent conduct then I don't know what is.
Disgraceful to do that to a fellow professional, who is just doing what he is paid to do. What a nasty piece of work he must be.
His clash of heads with Adam Smith didn't exactly look like an accident either. I thought he deliberately thrust his head at Smith. He's one of those horrible gits who always seems to get away with dirty tricks.

Do you have a heat map for senesi from yesterday? Almost left wing at times yesterday
 
I finished watching the replay this morning (traveling in Texas yesterday) and my findings are as follow:
1) The sending off of Boly was a terrible decision.
2) The commentator (Birtles? I rely upon this board to identify most of these guys.) was the worst.
3) The Smith handball thing was never a penalty (arm outside the box) and arguably not even handball on time and distance grounds.
4) What even is the point of VAR as constituted?
5) Good on O. Dango for filling in admirably at left back. Hopefully not something that has to persist.
6) I observed Iraola conferring at times with someone who has "PS" on his jacket. Would that be his No. 2? I thought the guy's name was Godot.
7) Kind of a muted attacking performance, but for ONE MAN. Maybe a guy that should be marked pretty closely.
 
It seems they don't like us.

lol we won they lost and that’s all that matters. They still live of that drunk clough era .

The entitlement is delicious. More arrogance than United fans. Love the optimism that we'll be back "where we belong" in League 1 before soon, while they presumably will be winning the Champions League.
