It’s been SEVENTY-THREE days since Nottingham Forest last won a Premier League game — and now, they face Ruben Amorim’s Manchester United. But this one’s not about the form table… it’s about the battle of footballing philosophies.
Sean Dyche doesn’t just play football — he wrestles with it. His 4-4-2 is compact, aggressive, and suffocating. But Amorim’s fluid 3-4-3 system might just be the perfect antidote.
In this video, we break down:
⚔️ Why Amad Diallo & Diogo Dalot are key to breaking down Dyche-ball
🧱 How Amorim’s back-three rotation and wide overloads stretch the low block
📊 What Sean Dyche’s pressing triggers really look like
💡 Why this game could be United’s toughest — and most important — test yet

I don't know if you guys can tell – I had a lot of fun making the intro on this one 🤣
Key moments will be mbeumo and cunha especially shooting outside the box.
Good crosses and set pieces.
If indeed they want to play LWB that high, Dorgu might start then
Don’t panic Forrest fans, you’ve got Liverpool soon, your winless streak will soon be over.
This is a great test for amorim, I'm happy Dyche is back. Bournemouth played an interesting game against them, and I'm sure just like them we can get one over them too
If Dalot is the key to anything we are bang in trouble for this one haha.
2-1 United MOM Mbeumo First scorer Cunha
Just imagine Prime Dyche to win and destroy Uniteds Win Streak 😂
Watched the first half of Bournemouth vs Forest, don’t know what happened in the second, but Semenyo and Tavernier were running circles around Forest. Granted, they’re both good players and Semenyo in particular looks like a star in the making, but first 45 Dyche had absolutely no answer to the wide threat. He forced Bournemouth wide and they happily obliged.
I am coming back to watch the video. But if Dalot is the person that person that helps us win, then we have lost the game already. Why he plays is still a mystery to me. Find another tactic to make us win that does not have Dalot in it please🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Buf Dalot is kinda useless on the left he can't shoot or put in a square ball
Let me tell you something mate DALOT is a clown he hasn’t got the brains or skill to do anything. The truth is he’s the liability and thorn in our side. You don’t watch him play mate . I had a good laugh. Amad yes l agree but DALOT he the joker. Sometimes l think DALOT is being paid by the opposition.
Manu will score alot of goals against an inform team like forest. They will not adapt quickly to the new managers idea at this stage.
Manu score against forest will be 5-0 trust me the devils are getting better and better…Amad will be the man of the match.
Enjoyed that, good breakdown.
Dalot 😂😂😂
One of the worst players in the league. It's embarrassing enough that he plays for us, no need to add to it by projecting him as a key player
Nice Job..🎉
I blame Patrick Dorgu for the situation we’re in right now. Because if he had just done the basics of a left full-back, we wouldn’t be relying on Dalot. I hate this situation of trusting Dalot because I hate Dalot to the core, but there’s no other option since Dorgu has been equally shit in comparison. It's like choosing between food poisoning and food poisoning with extra spice. (Both have been average this season)
if Amorim doesnt want to play Dorgu i would start Mount at left wingback.
#prediction 1-3
Great work for all Utd fans across the world! You’ve helped sway me to be AmorIN
I have an FPL related question. Would you bet on Sesko over Mateta, based on Sesko's and United forms and Nottingham's form, because I feel like he is being over looked.
That Igor Jesus kid is something else, Im sure he got in the team of the month. Feel like De Ligt's got this tho. He's been incredibly consistent this season and personally he's been my favourite player so far (it's close with Mbuemo ofc). Not wanting to disrespect forest because that's how we lose games/how we didnt lose to Brighton so hopefully bringing the same energy. A shame we couldn't have played them under Ange – when he was their gaffer it looked like an easy 3 points to me 😂 4 in a row will be some feeling too. Depending on the outcomes of other games we could be sitting pretty comfortable in the European spots still.
Funny if we draw to Spurs tho and the United Strand can't get his haircut 😂
The only thing that could stop us from winning this game is wearing our third kit
This man is giving me hope and expectation that i don't want to have.
Can't believe I'm excited to watch united play.😭😭
Bournemouth did a lot of distance shooting, Notts left an open pocket outside of the box quite often. that's space for Cunha to drop into or Bruno/Casemiro to float in, shots from distance there
Expected tackles are indeed Dyche's bread and butter. The bloke climaxes watching peak Roy Keane hospitalising opponents
Forrests attack in the league has been so damn poo that we can just go after them and be reckless and that will suit Bruno,Cunha,Mbeumo and Amad very well. We should win , comfortably
Really enjoying the content. I am and have always been curious about why ppl always show pictures of players screaming on thumbnails? Yes it may be odd and strange but it’s just as strange to always show the players yelling, lol. Keep up the great work
Your analysis is top notch 👌 👏
Amazing analysis
Forest won't be pressing that much, they will play on edge of their box and try and counter.
Great prep for the game Andy. Thank you
Dyche's comments as a pundit may be coming back to haunt him. After him, all is left to do is deal with the Mr. Burns impersonator from Torquay.
Dyche as Stone Cold is inspired 😂
a really good analysis. but i wish you could explain in a different video the stark comparisons between our previous managers and ruben amorim, ik its completely irrelevant but it would help all of us understand how these set of players are improving under them or not
You deserve far more than 50k JJ. Many thanks for the stella work you do.
Getting a goal early would be massive in this game!
OK you've convinced me to subscribe.
Do you think we should do lots of shots from distance for this one? It should help our xG at least
Fantastic vid dude. Great analysis and funny
Let's not forget one thing. We are 2 points away from the 2nd place but we already played against Arsenal, Man City, Chelsea and Liverpool
THE MAN WHO DOESN'T BELIEVE IN xG ONLY EXPECTED TACKLE HAHAHAHAHAHAHA 🤣🤣😂😂🔥🔥🔥
Your analysis of the system is absolutely correct. Dalot will not do what you say because he does not listen to instructions. He didn't listen last year and he hasn't listened this year.
What do u think of starting cunha mbeumo mount up front to break down low block?
Here’s my ‘Mystic Meg’ predictions for the end of November (played 13 games) . . .
1 Arsenal
2 Man U
3 Sunderland
4 Man C
4 Bournemouth
4 Liverpool
4 A Villa
Tottenham to fall behind . . .
