Now the World Cup is over, all eyes are on the resumption of the domestic season - with Nottingham Forest back in action on Wednesday night.
First up for the Reds is a Carabao Cup clash against Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park. Head coach Steve Cooper is keen to progress further in the competition, and his side will be eager to pick up from where they left off before the break, having built up some momentum.
Forest fans look set to outnumber the home crowd for the fourth round tie. And it is likely to be a strong visiting line-up named.
