Nottingham Forest have suffered so many injuries this season that Steve Cooper’s “next man up” mantra has almost been tested to its limit.
That they seem to strike just when a particular player is finding form only adds to the sense of frustration. See, for instance, Taiwo Awoniyi earlier in the campaign, Neco Williams and now Danilo.
Collectively, the number of absentees have had a massive impact. Individually, losing key men has been extremely tough.
