Fantastic result. Cooper is in incredible manager - hard to believe he has taken us from the foot of the Championship to 13th in the Premier League in 18-months.

Must say at this rate I’ll have to eat my words as I thought we were down and out this season. Great to see the team fighting and gelling together especially up front. Fantastic result again going into some big games with confidence!

Oh completely forgot we had had our 3 stoppages so it was either dean goes off and someone infield goes in net or he stays on

For those that haven't seen. Watch the build up for the second goal... MGW - unbelievable. That bicycle kick clearance and then to do what he does...

Lodi had a really good game defensively, hardly looked like the same player. Brilliant to see MGW and Jonno gelling together. That second one in particular was phenomenal... looked like the counter had broken down, pure class from MGW but if you look where Jonno is when he gets the ball he still has alot to do. Throw in Niakhate, Danilo and Awonoyi and we have the makings of a top half finish.

Agree mate, thought surridge should maybe have done better with diving header but thought he did really well at being a physical nuisance and did well at holding the ball up and connecting with others. Might be speaking slightly prematurely but in my 23 years or so of being a forest fan MGW could possibly be one of the best players that I have personally seen put on the forest shirt. Especially considering the level of opposition we are up against.

Very good although they did miss an absolute sitter. Going forward we look good but the centre backs without Boly scare the hell out of me. Hopefully he is not out for too long

The league is so tight, two wins on the trot just changes everything. Unbelievable that we're 13th with a little buffer to 18th.
Can't comment too much on the performance as I wasn't there, but sounded like it was pretty comfortable
A slight concern about injuries. As well as Niakhate Biancone, Richards, we've also got Lingard, Awoniyi, Boly, Kouyate and potentially Henderson and Yates out. Our squad looks thin
