I think I heard the commentator say forest had about 22 million crosses at about 60 mins?
Patterson slipped over every time they had the ball, and Myko allowed the other 21 million balls into the box. Maybe it was the plan?
But both full backs looked like the weak link tonight.
Fantastic effort from everyone else, in my humble opinion ...

Pete #58, what a fantastic day out for you... glad you enjoyed it!
Agree with all your observations. I thought Garner, O'Brien and Iroegbunam all had their best games as Blues. The latter still has some obvious rough spots passing the ball, but his defensive positioning was by far the best I've seen.
I thought Patterson played his heart out against a tough opponent under difficult circumstances, and he surprised and delighted me by being... adequate.
I'm a Barry optimist, but he had a nightmare most of the way -- including two opportunities running free with the ball when he couldn't make a decision and gave it away. Then late on he made a couple fine crossfield passes before that poised finish. Justified Moyes leaving him on.
And you know how I feel about Garner. ...

As said by nearly all, Jimmy Garner was superb. Imagine if KDH had been playing.
I sort of expect that from Garner, so even more welcome was Tim Iroegbunam's performance. For the first time for me he looked like a real all-round player, winning so much in front of the defence and looking to move things forward in a way I haven't seen before. Apparently Moyes had a word. It worked. Well done both.
Glad you had a great day Pete M and agree that Barry was shite. But he scored and it was a great move and finish. So, fingers crossed.
Patterson started poorly but improved as the game unfolded. He had two quick skillful lads to deal with and he did fine. I thought that he and Dibling - very impressive - worked well together. Dibling tracking back and Dear God I actually saw our right-back ahead of his winger.
Patterson must start v Brentford, but one reason is that top-drawer performace by JT and Jake. Superb. Domineering. Forest with very good wide players - we were linked wit...

John @ 54, whereabouts in the Philippines are you? Just visiting, or living here? If you are a resident, we could start our very own Philippines Everton fan club 😃.

Interesting to hear the commentator suggest that McNeil's move to Forest is imminent. Anyone heard anything of this particularly as Dyche rates him....
