How these roles work
Blamed (Causer)
Fans named this player as the direct cause of a negative outcome. Examples: "Maguire gave away the penalty", "Ten Hag's formation cost us". Scores are amplified when the causer is blamed clearly.
Sympathy (Victim)
This player was on the receiving end of something — a foul, a bad decision, being dropped, or let down by teammates. Fans feel for them rather than against them.
Credit (Beneficiary)
Fans gave this player clear credit for a positive outcome — a goal, an assist, a key moment. Includes players who enabled something good to happen. This is the co-winner of a match moment.

MY MANAGER! Thank you Vitor and thanks for starting Igor and Wood together, best game of football I've watched all season! Those 2 with Morgan on the left drifting into the pocket, absolute genius! So good to have a manager that works with the players they have rather than forcing the players into the wrong shaped holes to fit their style!

He's been out for almost the whole season and only come back this month. Jesus had a rough time for a while being played as a target man which didnt suit his strengths. Him and Wood together in a 4-4-2 look really dangerous now

@SunderlandAFC Diarra's lack of character doesn't appeal. - Pretending to be injured rather than defend vs. Brighton. - Trying self-indulgent deft chip vs. Villa. - Waving imaginary yellow cards around. Imagine the abuse Dan Neil would have got if he'd played like Diarra has this season.

Hutchinson Impresses as Forest Dominate Sunderland
Controversial

Nottingham Forest Demolish Sunderland in Five-Goal Rout
Emerging Controversial
Forest absolutely dismantled a hapless Sunderland side 5-0, with the talking point among supporters being Morato's rare competent performance at the back — fans sarcastically praising the Nottingham Forest defender for not conceding whilst he was on the pitch, a backhanded compliment that perfectly captures how low the bar has been set for him this season.

"WEST HAM YOU HAVE ONE BLOODY JOB"
Still overly mad about the Europa final?
@spegle Lmao coooope I'm not even a Utd fan but they have 20 league titles and 3 champions leagues, like they care about tinpot Europa league. Ah well enjoy your shiny trophy when you're playing Championship next year
​​​@speglewhy would we be? Spurs are out of the UCL and about to be relegated meanwhile we are 3rd and have a high chance of getting UCL next season. We are laughing too hard at this to even care about Spurs's first trophy compared to last season we are the complete oppsiysidesnof the table 😂😂😂
Big ange
@Swiftyyy198 then why do you care so much about our relegation battle
Lol bro I'm a serie A fan but you buried this guy ahahah 😂 can wait to see happy Europa league Tottenham thin foil cup playing championship and staying there. I don't undestand why the zerbi took this job +
@zeb1008 and yet they still couldn’t win the "tinpot" trophy, a trophy greater than what they’ve won in the last decade. History merchants
Why does everyone want Spurs to go down?
@Charlie_7861 because they saw someone else say the same thing so they instantly change their mind to what other people think on the internet
​@Swiftyyy198 I might join you guys when Spurs go down.
"Perfect 👌 Now we’re all Wolves and West Ham fans tomorrow 👌👌👌"
Just wolves as a forest fan. I don't care who goes down.
Everton have something to play for so they won't roll over
Care more about spurs than your own club. Clown 🤡
@Gridball1953 Think of others.
​@HarlanBrooks-j3qwell no everyone's club comes first, who cares if Tottenham get relegated I don't think people understand banter
​@HarlanBrooks-j3q We just want rid of the worst fans in the league, tbh. Can't begrudge anyone that.
​@PrehistoricPro respectfully, thry are nowhere near the worst fanbase in the league
​@HarlanBrooks-j3q They absolutely are. They cheer against their own team. They abandon them at half time when they're in a relegation battle. They're arrogant without merit, delusional beyond belief, and toxic af. Will be the best thing that ever happened to the PL if they go down and never come back.
​@PrehistoricPro That is simply not true, the support from the fans against Brighton last week was amazing. Spurs have always have a good fanbase. However, what is tempting me to stop supporting them is being constant ridiculed and on the receiving end of banter all the time, just like this comment section.
​@Charlie_7861 LMFAO! 😂 "People are making fun of my team. So, I'm going to stop supporting them!" is the Spursiest thing I've ever heard.
"Hopefully this is us more or less safe now. Gotta say I'm pretty delighted if that's the case and that the two at risk are Spurs (hilarious) and West Ham (Nuno). Shame Burnley or Wolves couldn't drag "
Forest fans hate Nuno?
I wouldn't say hate, but he's considered a bit of a shit for the way he burned the place down on the way out.
No we don't lol he is a living legend to us for getting us into Europe +
Nobody knows what went down leading to his exit. Something went on between him and Marinakis, and we don’t know enough to fairly pick sides. Yet a minority of our fans have decided that they know exactly what happened and are angry at Nuno for it. In general Forest fans are grateful for everything Nuno did for us and wish him the best (so long as he isn’t doing well at our expense).
its preety well reported that Nuno didnt like Edu and Kia being involved and thought his transfer were shit. I dont think Nuno was in the wrong
The way he handled his exit was disgusting and it's tiring seeing him get treated like some poor martyred saint just because Marinakis is a fat prick and Edu is useless. Nuno disrespected the entire fanbase and his players the way he carried on.
Could have been worse, he could have dragged his feet on taking a new job and stayed on your payroll for a few years.
He was twerking for West Ham weeks before we sacked him tbf
39 points was enough to stay up in 26 of 30 premier league seasons (20 teams). you should be fine at this point, but it's not over
Spurs have scored 6 points in 4 months. Where is anyone getting the idea that they'll score 8+ in 5 games from? Forest and Leeds are safe.
"Have a feeling that if Wolves beat Spurs tmw then it's over for them"
Been saying this every game
I mean wolves should be thinking we sunk the ship. We also have another ship to sink let’s go out there 😂
Big IF , but lets hope so! +
​@howtopost3450Innit?! Just for the love of the game! 😂
Chance is minimal
Is it not a blow for West Ham ?
Draw is a bad result for spurs, they still have Chelsea villa to play
Wolves need to understand that the game is bigger than just them. The entire world wants them to take Spurs down with them
As a West Ham fan, don't underestimate our ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory
"If I'm going down, I'm taking you with me!" +
