Sabri Lamouchi referred to one of his key players at Nottingham Forest as he hailed match-winner Romaine Sawyers following Cardiff City’s win over Reading on Friday night.
Midfielder Sawyers scored the only goal in added time as the former Reds boss led his new club to a crucial victory in their fight against relegation from the Championship.
After the game, Lamouchi hailed the midfield anchorman, who has started each of the Frenchman’s five matches in charge of the Bluebirds so far. Lamouchi lavished praise on Sawyers after the game, comparing him to England international Kalvin Phillips and one of his key players from his time at Forest, Ben Watson.
