Nottingham Forest given Brighton instruction ahead of 'big week' in relegation fight

Nottingham Forest have been told to use the frustration from their defeat to Liverpool as motivation for a big week ahead.

The Reds only had themselves to blame for coming away from Anfield empty-handed, with some woeful defending at set-pieces proving costly as they lost 3-2. But the fact they came so close to getting a positive result is a source of encouragement for head coach Steve Cooper.

His team have now gone 11 games without a win and dropped to 19th in the Premier League table. They showed no shortage of fight in the north west, however - something they will need to replicate in their remaining six games, starting at home to Brighton and Hove Albion on Wednesday.
