“His time at Man United was done. He’s come back, a stalwart at centre-half.”
As for Andy Townsend, his eye was caught by a winger who shot to prominence and has since been linked with a big-money move to Manchester United.
“Antoine Semenyo, I really, really like him,” Townsend said.
I think he’s a good player, I really do.
“I can see him popping up somewhere at a team pushing for the top six.
Ally McCoist, a former forward himself, followed Bent’s suit in terms of sticking with the striker’s union.
But he also was a big fan of another certain Forest star that has caught the eye of Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola.
“I think [Morgan] Gibbs-White and Chris Wood have been absolutely fantastic,” McCoist said.
“In terms of the seasons that both those boys and Forest have had, amazing. Absolutely amazing.”
“He’s such a good player. In a bad team, he has really stood out.”
Leicester City may have been relegated, but for Andy Jacobs, he had a soft spot for goalkeeper Mads Hermansen, who made the seventh-most saves among the Premier League’s glovemen this term.
“I think he’s had a brilliant season and is a great goalkeeper playing behind a terrible defence,” Jacobs said.
“I wouldn’t be surprised to see him at a top club next season.”
As for Darren Bent, he proved he’s still a true member of the striker’s union with his selection.
“He makes all these brilliant saves and when they’ve got to hit people on the break, he does that as well.”
For Paul Hawksbee, he couldn’t go past a teenager who enjoyed a true breakout season.
It was a trial by fire, but for Lucas Bergvall, it was one Hawksbee certainly felt he passed.
“Got more time than he would have doen because of all the many injuries and has really stood up,” Hawksbee said.
“He missed the end of the season which is a shame, through injury of course. But what a player.
