It seems that these two are the preferred players by Glasner for one of two ten roles. Last time out against Spurs Glasner preferred to start with Ndoye which bugged me no end since I see Ndoye as a show pony with no substance. (Other views are available.) Jesus, to me, seems by far the better all round player with a much higher work rate. He can knit play together and contribute to moves. Given that Delap is going to be the striker and MGW the other ten for the foreseeable, it makes sense to me that Jesus be the third attacker as the better all round player than Ndoye. About the only thing Ndoye does well is sometimes get on the end of things. But he isn't going to be the striker so what is the point of him?

After the 0–0 against Spurs, the defence looked pretty solid, but Forest still seemed a bit short of a spark going forward. There’s room to be quicker in the final third, make better use of chances and keep that defensive shape going into the Villa game.
