Bench point made as Nottingham Forest sent message ahead of Tottenham clash

Nottingham Forest fans have responded to the team chosen by Steve Cooper to face Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League this afternoon.

The Reds' boss has made two changes to the side that drew 1-1 at Everton last time out. Orel Mangala will miss out having been forced off at Goodison Park, while Taiwo Awoniyi is on the bench.

Ryan Yates and Morgan Gibbs-White both come into the starting XI, with the latter making his debut since arriving from Wolves.

Here is what the Reds' faithful have had to say...

Jonno: "Dunno what Harry Arter has to do to get in the squad. Prem experience going to waste."

Elisa: "Love Yates but Freuler should be starting ahead of him. Solid bench tho."

SimpsonsNFFC: "Worra bench that is."

CJP: "Some bench that with more to add too. Any of Freuler, Kouyate, Dennis, Awoniyi could easily be starting, add Lodi to that too."

Grant Fellows: "Mangala necessary change but Yates looks ready, can't complain about the front 3, speed and cleverness should give Tottenham issues."

Henrik Johansen: "COYR! Trust SC, but actually surprised by that starting 11… Sad Mangala is out!"

Stale: "Look at the subs. We have come such a long long way."

Andy McGahey: "Good lineups, strong bench."

Malcolm Heron: "MGW starting is great to see, intrigued to see how we are going to adapt our attacking play. Congrats to Yatesy for his first start in the Prem. Gutted to see no Mangala after picking up that knock, he has been so promising so far. Some exciting options off the bench."
