Andrew Omobamidele

Starts again for Forest at home vs Liverpool.

Scores!!

I'm a bit suprised he is getting so much gametime under Nuno who is a fairly conservative manager who can sometimes not be the most trusting of young players. Think they suffered with AFCON and injuries giving him a chance so hopefully he is making the most of that.

I think he's our best prospect in the defence department.

I'd argue he's more comfortable on the ball than Collins. 

Could've done better for Spurs's third and looked a bit too casual in challenging for the header as the ball came across. 

None of Spurs goals have been anywhere close to attributable to Omobamidele, he's dealt with everything he's had the opportunity to deal with.

Andrew's recent appearances in a green shirt have been less than convincing. He too often makes careless passes out from the back, and seems to lack a commanding presence in the middle.  Time is on his side, but I think he'll be surpassed by one or more of our other prospects in the next year or so.
