Forss is a big miss!!

He was heavily limping around the pitch at full time.

I can't see him being back, except potentially in the final if we can get there.
 
We’d be a much better side with Ramsey or Forrs back. If we get Ramsey back and Forrs is out, McGree right and Ramsey on the left and I’d get the cigars out.
As it is, I think we are good enough to do it even without them.
 
It's gutting like. Carrick hasn't got many things wrong since he came in but I did feel he rushed Forss back for the Hull game.

Thought Jones improved in the 2nd half but you can see he doesn't have a great understanding with Smith at the moment.

Jones was dogsh!t the whole game but Smith did not help him. He plays better with Djiksteel.

Couldn’t agree more, Jones and Dijksteel work well as a combo.

We’re best with Smith and Forss as his movement when Giles has the ball gives us three forwards dragging defenders around.

Gutted he’s going to miss out.
 
Apparently limping around the pitch... Clearly playing the superb long con😂

We are definitely better with him. A real eye for goal. Yet also something we didn't expect and that's graft and work rate. I genuinely think that's why Smith hasn't looked as good. It pretty much ties in with Forss's injury (not just his contract extension)

A terrific signing. Especially as he's 'ours' and not on loan. Kinda goes under this radar as he's not in the press as much as Akpom or Archer.

Shame if he's out. Yet still plenty to come from him next season.

Jones just looks like he lacks belief to take someone on….
He’s a weak link but at least we have his pace which helps….
In trust Michael carrick to draw out the best he can from Jones if that’s his only real option
 
It looks like it will be Jones in the play off think its is really important everyone really get behind the lad and hopefully boost his confidence if he gets a good start and playing with confidence he can be one of the best wide players in this division
 
Jones played a blinder to be fair. Showed them how fragile he looks today, but come Sunday, POW! Right in the kisser.
Well done Jonesy lad
 
I agree about missing Forss. He links up play really well and is that extra threat in front of goal. Jones has done well but wasn’t brilliant today. I thought Carrick might have tried Hackney in one of the wide roles and put Balaser on earlier. We don’t have many options on the bench really. It would be a huge boost if we could get Forss back but it doesn’t sound likely.

Today proved how much better Ramsey is than McGree and Forss is than Jones.
They are both huge losses, as is Howson.
We miss all 3 so very much.

I'm a fan of McGree, think he's a technically gifted footballer and intelligent however he does still lack that end product and ruthlessness for me.

2nd half he piroietted in the box to deceive their defender and should have squared it to one of his team-mates but took too long to make his mind up. He also had space to put in a cross from the left at one point but decided to go with the safe option. I get that Carrick likes us to keep possession but in that instance he needed to get the ball into the box for me.

Our biggest strength under Carrick has been scoring goals. With a frontline of Forss, Akpom, Ramsey and Archer, you've got goals galore. With our current frontline I am beginning to worry about whether we're going to have enough goals in us to come out on top in these next few games.
