Morgan Gibbs-White challenge laid down in 'really important period' for Nottingham Forest ace

Morgan Gibbs-White has been backed to be the difference for Nottingham Forest in their battle to avoid relegation.

The Reds' record signing will come up against former club Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday (3pm kick-off), in what is a key game at the bottom end of the table. The two teams are separated by just one point, with Steve Cooper's side sitting two points above the relegation zone and eager to end a six-match winless run.

Gibbs-White came in for flak from the visiting fans when Wolves visited the City Ground in the Carabao Cup in January; the attacker responded by sticking his fingers in his ears after scoring during the penalty shootout. Head coach Steve Cooper says he has no concerns about the 23-year-old's temperament should he take stick from the stands again, and is simply focused on ensuring the Forest star keeps doing his talking on the pitch.
