Oliver Glasner weighing Nottingham Forest selection calls for Spurs after transfer arrivals | OneFootball

Nottingham Forest aim to build on their 2-2 draw at Liverpool when Tottenham visit the City Ground on Saturday. Oliver Glasner has selection calls to make.

According to Nottingham Post, £45 million signing Liam Delap impressed off the bench at Anfield, his quick throw leading to the penalty for Morgan Gibbs-White's second. He is still regaining sharpness but could start, which might see Igor Jesus benched or used as one of two No.10s.

Dan Ndoye has partnered Gibbs-White in the opening two league games. He scored at Anfield and improved, so leaving him out would be harsh.

Ousmane Diomande could make a first league start after only featuring against Leeds United in the Carabao Cup. He is building fitness. With centre-back numbers light, Jair Cunha was steady at Liverpool and would keep his place if Diomande is not used, and cover is limited.

Glasner played down concerns, believing Nicolo Savona, once over a knee injury, and Ryan Yates can step in.

At right wing-back, new signing Daniel Munoz is available to compete with Ola Aina. Glasner noted the Colombian had limited Crystal Palace pre-season minutes and arrived late, so he might be on the bench. He has trained in a protective mask after summer nose surgery.

In midfield, Ibrahim Sangare has recovered from the knock that kept him out last weekend, though Xaver Schlager and James McAtee worked well at Liverpool and may stay together.

Forest predicted XI: Sels, Diomande, Milenkovic, Murillo, Aina, Sangare, McAtee, Williams, Gibbs-White, Ndoye, Delap.
