I know not winning against Forest is disappointing. But to be fair, it was at their ground, and they have been on fire this season. They are 3rd in the league for a reason. So in the context of just this result, a draw wasn't too bad. Especially considering we are thread-bare on attacking options and are currently playing a box-to-box midfielder as our striker.
Just focus on the next one and keep backing the lads and Mikel.
I am with you. A loss would have been damaging, a big loss even more so. Forest are performing above expectations but you can't deny that they deserve their position on the table.
Additionally, I saw a chart of the combined value of players unavailable through injury for each team in the league. We topped the list and Forest were at the bottom.
Having said that, I do think we outplayed them and if Califiori had of scored, or Tierney or Merino's headers had gone in…So yes, that's disappointing.
It does pretty solidly close the door on the title, though, especially with Liverpool's results.
