Nottingham Forest midfielder Ryan Yates will have brushed off any plaudits which have come his way in recent weeks.
Boss Steve Cooper says the 24-year-old will instead only have listened to advice on how he can keep improving. And his sole focus will be on getting stuck in against Arsenal on Sunday, when the Reds take on the Premier League pace-setters at the Emirates Stadium.
Yates has been one of Forest’s most consistent performers of late. But he particularly caught the eye with a standout display in last weekend’s 1-0 victory over Liverpool.
