The top five Nottingham Forest performers so far this season

Nottingham Forest may have endured a tough start to the season but seem to have burst into life since the appointment of Steve Cooper.

The Reds will be looking to make it three wins out of three this weekend against Blackpool at the City Ground.

Ahead of Saturday's return to action following the international break, NottinghamshireLive takes a look at Forest's top five performers, according to WhoScored...

1. Max Lowe - 7.57

Top of the list is the new arrival on loan from Sheffield United - the defender has been on excellent form so far and has impressed many.

He has improved Forest's defence, and also contributed with a goal and an assist in nine league games.

2. Djed Spence - 7.05

It could be argued that the 21-year-old has been one of Forest's best players since his arrival in September, on loan from Middlesbrough.

Adapting well to life at Forest, he has contributed with one goal in his eight appearances.

3. Philip Zinckernagel - 7.02

The Danish has been key for Forest this campaign, picking up two goals and four assists in 10 league appearances.

Should he continue in fine form, the Reds could be looking at extending his stay at the City Ground.

4. Ryan Yates - 6.97

Forest academy graduate has been a consistent figure in the side starting all opening 11 fixtures.

After struggling for form in the early stages of the campaign, he has overcome that hurdle and could fulfil his full potential.

5. Joe Worrall - 6.85

Despite missing the opening four games due to injury, Worrall has featured in all games since his return.

His presence in defence has seen him linked with a move to Premier League side, Southampton.

Portuguese defender Tobias Figueiredo sits just behind Worrall on 6.83, placed in sixth.
