Well that has convinced me that Cooper, despite what he says, has no intention of playing any other way than defensive, negative, boring football. He often talks about players "sticking to the plan" that plan is always sit in your own half, let the opponent have the ball and then try to hit them on tge break.

Tonight was pretty much a free hit as many fans are not overly bothered about this cup. But instead of trying a more attacking style and maybe even trying to have more possesion than an opponent for once, he puts us through the same ugly football.

5 defenders and 3 midfielders that are more defensive minded than attacking set the tone. don't want to hear excuses about it not being our best starting 11 as Burnley didn't play their strongest team either. I would have preferred we had a go even if we had lost. But to play that way and lose anyway is poor, poor management abd I for one am losing paitence with Cooperball.

Cooper should move away from defensive tactics and start showing some bravery in attacking.
Luckily it's only a cup game where upon Forest can concentrate on the League.
With all these player's being linked with us do you think Cooper will utilize these possible incoming player's to continue to play a deep defensive strategy?

Keep the ball. Not overly bothered you say

We were all bothered when we got to the semis last season.

Save a few players I understand but at least have a go with the rest. It’s what we all wanted.

A chance to leave the negative tactics behind and apparently play the way Cooper wants to play 38 percent possession no shots on target and we was playing at home let's be realistic coopers never going to change his boring football.
