‘Class above’ - Steve Cooper sent Nottingham Forest demand ahead of Leicester City clash

Nottingham Forest fans have called for midfielder Remo Freuler to be given another chance in the starting line-up for the Premier League clash against Leicester City next week.

Forest travel to the King Power Stadium on Monday night as both teams look to pick up what would be a confidence-boosting win. Going into the game, both sides sit in the Premier League relegation zone after disappointing starts to the season.

The Reds have lost their last four Premier League games before the international break, with the latest defeat seeing them fall to a 3-2 loss against fellow promoted side Fulham. That game saw summer signing Freuler start for just the second time in the Premier League this season, as he played the full 90 minutes.

The international break has seen the 30-year-old represent Switzerland in Nations League clashes against Spain and the Czech Republic. He was praised for his performance against Spain last week, and has now earned further plaudits by scoring in the 2-1 win over Czech Republic on Tuesday evening.

His performances on the national stage has led to Forest fans taking to social media to give their reaction, with many sending a message to Steve Cooper over his selection for Monday night’s match. Here’s what just some had to say.

David Jackson : He’s just run a game against Spain and now a goal against Czech. People are still unconvinced? He’s clearly a class above - he needs to be played regularly to get the system! #nffc

Danny McDonald : Needs to be first name on the team sheet #nffc

Gareth D : Starting 11 on Monday…..I wish…..they’ll stick with Yates though

Elliott : Start him then

NottinghamRed99 : Need to see what an O'Brien/Freuler/Mangala midfield looks like.

Liam Handley : Remo Freuler has to start for #nffc next game. He’s just beat Spain and scored and beat Czech Rep. yet nffc fans would prefer Yates

Joe Fletcher : Freuler’s doing bits. It’s clear we just haven’t found the best way to accommodate him yet. Will be a top player for us in time #NFFC
