I think his timing and movement in relation to the players around him has improved. I remember him arriving to early or too late for the pass/cross in the first few games.
It's all about learning to play together.

Same for Carvalho, he gets better and better every game IMO as he learns more about the players around him and they do too.

I dont agree in regard Carvalio...he is getting worse nd not better !!! AK keeps persisting with him because he cost us money...he is not much better then the other two...nd because these two r on loan...they r rarely being used...The Carv is no game changer...nd his over all performance is pretty average...some people r easily impressed...with a back heal or some juggling...but in reality he is no better then Dowell...

Its his killer pass that's making a difference with him, you only have to look at his assists. Bare in mind new culture new club diff league, he's doing ok if you ask me. You can't fault his work rate, I'm happy with him maybe not justifying the 13m price tag but he's more than twice the player of bb. So overall I'm happy, certainly more to come from this lad.
Dowell couldn't pass just had a lethal left foot.

Carv has also set up many chances that haven't been converted , he could be miles clear in the assists column for this league . He does drift in and out of games but his eye for a set up is first rate.

Dowell couldn't pass for toffee.
Maybe he shoud think about leaving them ?

Carvalho also helps Forest keep the ball well. If nothing is on he is happy to play it back, keep moving and pick it up again. Much better than Dowell, no comparison for me.
Take him out the team and the goals will dry up very quickly.

Carvalho maybe a little light weight now but he is still young and a good off season on the weights will make a huge difference but to say he is getting worse is in my opinion wrong. There is a reason why he is so high on the assists this year because he makes the difficult passes and takes high risks which is what you need if you are going to win games. If we wanted him to have a high pass rate then we would never try to play the defence splitting pass. He has a higher vision than most of of other players and we have seen that others are now seeing what he see's and making the run for the impossible pass because he can actually make it. This is making us more dangerous as teams now have to worry about what they can't see.

Grabban will be up for this one tonight against his former club. Hope he bags another one.
Panic on the streets of Croydon, Derby, Sheffield, Leicestershire.

He managed two!

He took both goals so well last night, a proper striker instinct.

I also thought he held the ball up brilliantly.

£6 million is a bargain. Best we’ve had since Earnie!

Grabban worked his socks off last night, chasing back to win the ball, into the channels etc. Fully deserved his two goals.
Here we go.....
