Nottingham Forest captain Morgan Gibbs-White, speaking to TNT Sports: “I felt we had a real identity out there. We defended well and we created so many chances.”

On the new manager: “His message to us is that we will have a real identity how we play and defend as a team. We have all bought into what he wants straight away.

“It is about keep learning off each other and take it game by game.

“We needed a clean sheet and we needed a win and today felt like the perfect moment. Our fans were top tonight, they were incredible. An all-round incredible day.

“You want to enjoy every moment as a player. I said yesterday it can be difficult as footballer to enjoy moments because of how quick the games come up. We can enjoy it tonight and then prepare for Liverpool at the weekend.

“We have been going through a difficult time, confidence is the main thing and tonight will boost confidence. We just have to stay together and be the most complete team.”
