Nottingham forest(away)predictions

Liverpool where odd's on favourites to regain the Prem title. By a landslide.
Pundits, everybody said yes, they are the best side by miles.

What nobody factored in was sometimes you get decimated by injuries. That changed things literally overnight. Take your best most key players out of any side, be it our level, or any level, things suddenly change.
While we are still not good enough to get in the play-offs, how does everyone know that's where we would be if we hadn't lost 85% of our defence this season? Or if we had Travis all season?

What I see alot at the moment is simple solution to a a more complicated question.
I never see any balance in the argument. No mention of injuries.
It all gets conveniently forgotten.
There are numerous factors that decide all of this, even before a ball is kicked.
Have we had much luck? I would say no.

Totally get that champs but what has happened between our last match in January and where we are now.
The players look bewildered and the manager looks fed up.
The confidence has drained from the players and mowbray has played all his aces.

If there is one thing I can guarantee you Robin, is that one game very very soon, we will sneak a win. Then once that happens, little deflections then go our way. Confidence returns, as does luck. Injuries will improve.
Our performances have been ok. We never lose heavily. We always lose by the odd goal. We never ever get soundly beaten. We are a gnats hair away from getting something even when the result doesn't end up going our way. Either tonight, or in a game or 2, things will swing back our way.
Half the division are on a run like us. In 2 weeks, all the teams winning now will stop. And all the sides on a bad run now, will all then go on a good run. Its been going on years at this level.

Lets not forget this ....Jan 2019 we won almost every game, Feb 2019 we lost nearly every game. Jan 2020 we won almost every game, Feb 2020 we lost nearly every game. What happened this year? Same as every other. After Jan, people where talking Play offs. Now people a month later want him sacked. This has been going on years.

The answer, as it always will be, will; be somewhere between the 2.

Players will look fed up when we lose. That's football. But they are not playing particularly badly. Or we would be losing 3-0 like PNE etc etc or Swansea who lost 4-1 to Huddersfield who hadn't won a game in 2021.
When we won at Boro Mowbray didn't move off his bench once. He looked fed up then. We played very well and won. If we win tonight, he will not jump off his bench and be excited.

All I'm saying is, it's one win and it all changes. Which it will. We aren't even playing badly.

We play in a division where a good 10 sides are sat ....like us ...at the start of the season beliebing they can go up. Each and every single one of the other 10 sides said exactly what we did. They all believed too. They all had as stronger case as us to argue this will be their clubs chance to go up. And like every season, 97% of those sides will fail. We are no different.
