Nottingham Forest receive Dean Henderson response after Man United decision

Nottingham Forest supporters have responded to Manchester United's decision to not allow Dean Henderson to play against his parent club ahead of the League Cup semi-final between the two teams.

Henderson received praise following the Reds' 4-3 penalty shootout win over Wolves on Wednesday. The game ended in a 1-1 draw at the City Ground, before Henderson denied Ruben Neves and Joe Hodge from the penalty spot.

With Forest set to face United twice in the semi-finals, Henderson will have to watch from the stands. United will reportedly not allow the 25-year-old to play against them, and it is also claimed that the club will 'reject any request' Forest make.

Here is how the Reds faithful responded on social media...

Steve Gibson: "May as well just buy him then."

David G: "Just get the chequebook out and buy him."

MikeNFFC: "Poor decision tbh, Man U are obviously huge favourites to win over a two leg semi final, I could understand it if it was a one game decider being played at ours, let the bloke play and gain some valuable experience especially since he is their player."

James Blagden: "Boring, boring Man United."

End2endstuff: "Bid will go in to sign him permanently."

Tufty: "Is there any way we can sign him permanently this window?"

RedDog1968: "I'd be more shocked if they said yes."

Aaron Andrew: "Kinda knew this was gonna happen. Let's just turn them over at ours. And get a draw at there's. Wishful thinking. But believing!"

Peter Plackett: "Not surprised, why would they

Pedro Starbuck: "That only suggests Man United are scared of losing."

Greg Burton: "They are scared! They knew if that goal stood at Old Trafford, different game we go on to get points from that."

Joe Clarke: "Why don't we just get Samba on an emergency loan for a month lol."

Michael Makar: "Marinakis needs to get that cheque book sent up to old Trafford… Sharpish."

Sean Gallagher: "Just buy him then, be great investment."

Graham Kemp: "Big Wayne's got this."
