Last summer Nottingham Forest were widely derided for making 21 signings. And then, last September, Serge Aurier became No 22.
It might seem an unlikely place to start. Since avoiding relegation Forest have attempted to strengthen again but Aurier was the unlikely catalyst behind Forest’s late victory over Sheffield United. He supplied Taiwo Awoniyi as Forest took the lead inside three minutes and another wicked delivery with a minute of normal time to spare allowed the substitute Chris Wood to head in a winner.
