Nottingham Forest fans have reacted to Steve Cooper’s starting line-up ahead of a crucial match against Manchester United at the City Ground.
The Reds host Erik ten Hag’s side knowing that a point would see them climb out of the relegation zone thanks to Everton’s loss against Fulham on Saturday afternoon. Forest currently sit in 18th place in the table, only in the bottom three on goal difference.
