Nottingham Forest sent painful message after 'pathetic' Arsenal thumping

Nottingham Forest supporters have delivered their verdict on this afternoon's heavy defeat by Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.

Forest went down 5-0 in north London after being unable to build on their encouraging home win over Liverpool last weekend. Gabriel Martinelli scored the opening goal in the fifth minute before Reiss Nelson scored twice in quick succession shortly after the break.

Thomas Partey then scored a fourth with a wonder strike from outside of the Reds' box before Martin Odegaard sealed the Gunners' 10th win of the season to send them back to the top of the Premier League. The Reds registered just two shots on target from five attempts during the match.

Here is how the Reds faithful have responded...

Paul NFFC: "Here we go again. Far foo easy!"

Dan Martin: "Just relegate us for goodness sake lol."

Tufty: "We aren't no Prem club."

Paul Swain: "Did someone unplug our defence?"

Thomas: "This is embarrassing. We don't belong in this league."

Jazz: "Totally humiliated."

Daniel Brown: "To all the fans who actually thought we’d get a result, give your heads a wobble. It’s obvious we are going down. Hopefully this team can get us back up and we go again the next time we get in the Prem. As for this season, if you think we will stay up, you’re crazy."

Elliot Rhodes: "Just disappointing, seems to be 1 step forward 2 steps back. The spirit is gone again as soon as a goal goes in, heads drop immediately. Getting beaten by huge scorelines is embarrassing."

Tom Smith: "Cook, Worrall and McKenna all doing NOTHING to stop the shot. Embarrassing."

JakeCartledge: "Keeping Yates on all game, criminal. Offered absolutely nothing."

ThrowingCopperFM: "Pathetic."

Bailey: "End the season."

Jake: "It's so embarrassing."

Paul Edwards: "Heads up, it’s how we respond next week that is important now..."

Jay: "That was gutless flightless and embarrassing."

Henrik Johansen: "Brutal to watch, but it was fun to beat Liverpool."
