Wes Morgan this time is afforded the honour of being included in the League One team of the week – which is a good reward for the young defender, who’s had a new lease of life in the role since Danny Cullip returned to first team action, in my opinion. He’s been solid and dependable with no signs of the unconfident player we’ve seen at times earlier in the season – so well done Wes, and keep up the great work!
I remember before that Julian Bennett was included in the team of the week after a not-especially amazing performance, so it’s similarly baffling that Nicky Southall – who has netted four goals in three league games, winning us all nine points available in these games, hasn’t been included – that level of goalscoring from midfield is good value in any league, so it seems strange he’s been omitted, although I doubt he’ll be losing any sleep over it!
Not surprising to see a few Rotherham United players in there after they annihilated Crewe at the weekend, and we know only too well the kind of threat that Scunthorpe’s Billy Sharp can be – at that point I must confess to a certain level of ignorance about the rest of the players, but well, I’m sure some of the fans of these clubs will be just as bamboozled as we’ve been with past selections of Forest players!
