Looked like a great goon in our end when Dalot scored

Great result that. Huge.

Nice saying that away from home.

Managed the game a lot better than Thursday. Still wasteful, but mitigated by more careful on the ball. Eriksen makes such a difference to that.

Credit to Lindelof, who was solid. Dalot deputised well and Boat Head grew into the game tbf to the absolute biff.

I think he’s remembered he’s shit

Don’t want to be over critical on Sancho but there were 2-3 chances where we were on the counter and he could have put a player through on goal and he just stops.

I get his confidence is low but you have to keep going , keep trying for the goal or assist.

Antony has had bad games this season but his confidence never gets dented

Very good performance against a pretty poor team (albeit one that has got results at home against City and Liverpool)

Bruno and Eriksen top class but the difference maker was Antony
That was his best performance in a Utd shirt

That result will go a long way to securing top 4

Credit to Dalot, Lindeof and Maguire for stepping up today
“You’ve seen Maguire now £#%&! off home”

Lindelöf was surprisingly good

Would love Spurs to get a point next week

Win at Spurs in our next game and I think we’ll have done enough.

We have played Forest four times this season, and won every encounter.

I know they aren't very good, but that is still quite an achievement.

I’ve always thought he was a much better player than Maguire.

That should be enough to get 4th. 6pts clear with a game in hand. If it was a good team in 5th you could argue there's still a risk but it's spurs. Brighton and Villa will probably finish above them.

An absolute joy watching Eriksen and Bruno today. Superb with the ball. Antony was class too. Actually didn't get heartburn once whilst watching. Which made a nice change.

I thought maguire actually had a decent game today.

Haven't conceded a goal either?

As they say… never in doubt

He was but then again forest weren’t attacking. Put the chuckle brothers under any bit of pressure and they will wilt.

Good thing is Sevilla don’t play in behind so he should have a good game again on Thursday.

He's quite OK as long as he's not getting bullied. Still wake up at night recalling the Huddersfield game

He’s basically your Henning Berg type player
Not good enough to be first choice but decent squad CB

Great result today and a cracking set of results across the weekend, 6 points and a game in hand over 5th place with only 7 left for them to play, if we £#%&! this up from here then we'll deserve every bit of slagging that'll come out way.

Much better ball player but usually looks so gutless. Not a lot of that today.
