Nottingham Forest are up and running in the Premier League after losing their first game 2-0 at Newcastle United last Saturday.
The fixture proved to be a perfect demonstration of the step up in class the Reds have taken as they were well beaten in the North East. The good news is that it is just game one of 38 and Steve Cooper's men have plenty of time to get it right.
They have players ready to come into the side if selected in Steve Cook (if fit), Orel Mangala and Taiwo Awoniyi. On top of that, the Reds are set to remain active in the transfer market until the window closes on September 1.
