Why can't Forest keep a lead?

Re: [Merged] - Football talk
Here we go again, Man Utd, nearly but not quite.
Losing today to Chelsea 1-0, a good performance, but lacking in the final third of the pitch.
United need another proven striker to be of any threat to Arsenal this season.
I think that striker needs to be a certain Wayne Rooney.
I can't imagine many premiership defences being able to handle Giggs, Nistelrooy, Rooney, Ronaldo up front, followed by Smith, Scholes, Keane in the middle of the park, with Neville, Ferdinand and Silvestre at the back, with Howard or Carroll in goal, with Fortune, Fletcher, Saha and Miller on the bench.
Ole is out for another year so we are lead to believe, so alas, I think his Man Utd career is over.
Diego can go to Spurs or whoever wants him
I think Rooney or a similar proven striker would make all the difference.
Arsenal look like they have carried on where they left off last season, looking quite invincible, so if we are to stand a chance in winning the premiership crown this season, we need to buy.
I know it's early days, but they are my thoughts anyway.

Re: [Merged] - Football talk
It's really annoying when we definately play better than the opposition yet still lose. Word has it that Defoe might be a target soon. I don't see Rooney joining though, not until at least next year.

the problem we had was we had Fortune in the team. he can't even play well on the left wing which is meant to be his position let alone at left back. How Fergie keeps him in the team i'll never know.. We were better in parts of the match but their keeper never had to make a save all match. We were abit lacking in the final third and a draw was prob a fair result.
Our bench was terrible though who did we have to bring on to change a game ? Giggs was poor as well.. he has, or had, so much quality but you just never see it any more..
Need another striker but thought Miller played well. JOS was poor in midfield even though i thought he done well midweek,
Nice to see another team roll over when they play arsenal.
Roll on sat when I got tickets for the Norwich game.. hopefully we will give them a good thumping.

No way!! He CANNOT go to Newcastle! Man United, Arsenal, Chelsea, anyone simply has to buy him no matter what it takes, just to stop such a wasteful deal going through!!

Re: [Merged] - Football talk
Don't need him at the Arsenal, he wouldn't get in the team. Possibly he could clean Fabregas' boots, I'm not sure there's anyone else worthy.
What's the time on the Clock End clock? Five past anybody. Chelsea should try giving the opposition a few goals start sometime, would liven up their dull matches no end.
10 players on two goals this season, 4 of them from the Arsenal. None, funnily enough, from Man Utd or Chelsea. Then again, those two have scored five goals fewer than Arsenal between them.
