Joe Worrall has the same future ahead of him IMO.

Lascellles has a spot on attitude in the dressing room as well as ability on the pitch. That's why he's having a successful career. As a young man he was handing out b*****ings to senior pros when he felt they weren't pulling their weight. That's why Rafa liked him so much. 

I see a lot of that in Worrall.

I am sure Worrall did exactly the same thing a couple of seasons ago when he first broke into the team, think it was against Wolves at home.

Yep, and I gather he's done it in the England dressing room too when he's represented his country. He's a born leader, that's what Dyche was probably prepared to invest in a  couple of years ago.

Forest are actually very lucky in the fact we have two youngsters who are born leaders in Worrall and Yates.

I think he'll be our future captain, no coincidence that he captained the team against Fleetwood with no Dawson and Watson in the side.

Not when he was Joe's age he wasn't mate.

In L1 he was regularly slated for being slow, having the turning circle of a cruise liner, and being hit & miss in the air (although granted, few ever complained about his strength.).

Personally I think Joe's still got a long way to go, but he's got the foundation to be a top Champ/lower prem player.

As someone who was already the target of a rumoured 10m bid, I'm glad we're investing game time in him too.

Worrall has the best Pass Success rate of all the players playing in defense incl. the keeper so I'm not sure what you are referring to.

Interesting stat Gari. My eyes tell me differently - and against Leeds his first 4 touches were to a white shirt.

He looks more like the first name on the team sheet to me and I think he will only drop out if injured or suspended.

Worral and Dawson have been excellent so far this season. I wasn’t a Worral fan but he’s quickly winning me over this season with some commanding, error free performances. We have just played two of the best championship sides and whilst we know a fully fit Dawson will be a stand out performer at this level, Worral has been his equal so far. Keep it up Joe, you’re heading in the right direction.
