April Player Ratings

Who were our star performers in April?

Top of the pile for the second month in a row is CONOR McGRANDLES, who has stepped up a level in the absence of Jorge Grant. It is probably too late for him to bid for our Player of the Season crown, but statistically he has been our best player since his return from injury in January.

JOE WALSH takes second place, again highlighting what a great loss he has been through his four separate spells on the injury list. If you think four is bad, Liam Bridcutt has had five… so far.

In third place we have BRENNAN JOHNSON, inspired by his hat-trick against MK Dons. Johnson was rated at £10 million by the media this month and Forest fans believe he will be a first team fixture for them next season. We must enjoy the final few weeks of his Lincoln City career, give him our sincere thanks for twenty-five goals and assists, and wish him a great future.

The average team rating of 6.78 is the highest since January and represents a welcome and timely return to form.
