Brice Samba was the hero of the hour for Nottingham Forest against Sheffield United last week - but one of his former teammates believes he can play even better.
The Reds goalkeeper saved three penalties in the shootout with the Blades to send Steve Cooper’s side to Wembley for a promotion decider against Huddersfield Town. And he had already made two stunning stops prior to that to deny Iliman Ndiaye during the semi-final second leg.
Ex-Forest midfielder Samba Sow, who left the club last summer after two years at the City Ground, keeps in touch with Samba. And the 33-year-old jokes sometimes he wants to “slap his face” because the Reds custodian still has more potential to fulfil.
