How have we not scored

Fuck Almiron RIGHT LEG

Colback lucky there.

Yes, lots of half chances and at least three full chances I recall; Wilson header, ASM on the end of a short cross and Joelinton went on a great run got deep in the box and then scuffed his shot wide. We're dominating possession, Bruno has been playing through balls utilising Miggy's pace but we've not yet turned that into a strong chance. Wilson has been very quiet other than the header. Defensively Burn made a good tackle in the box and Schar an exceptional block. ASM is looking to pass, but still normally on the end of a run, he's also doing more grafting than usual. We've had a ton of corners and free-kicks but have been largely wasteful with them.

I did't want to say anything. A sight for sore eyes.

We need Joelinton/Willock to be making more gambling runs through the middle otherwise Wilson is constantly outnumbered.

Do my eyes deceive me or did Almiron just use his right foot?

Great block Schar.

Almiron as well, he's everywhere.

Almost worked.

Wilson has been anonymous thus far.

Nice run Joe, but still can't hit a shot

Surely all the accessorising must be irritating. It is to me.

At the same time he has been dangerous, they're using his pace to get in behind.

Looked like Miggy could have got to that with his right foot. Joe is putting his stamp on the match.

Building some momentum and continuity now.

Burn has got to be heading those across the goal, that's two now.

A few errant passes early on and still growing into playing it out. Forest look a little nervous.

Expected Burn and Schar to start and have no problem with it but on some level I was keen to see Botman in a competitive match.

"Jamaal, thanks to your exceptional leadership skills we have an exciting new role for you in an up and coming development within the club..."

Excitement and optimism heading into a season, what team is this?!

I'm still convinced we will, at least one with the possibility of two.

This. Cornet would have been a classic old Newcastle signing.
