Nottingham Forest beat Manchester City 3-1 with Liam Delap, the star of the show, with two extremely vital goals.

Forest were quick out of the blocks and found themselves 2-0 up inside 20 minutes, with Jair Cunha and Delap finding the net.

After the game, the talk was centred around Delap and, ultimately, his teammates all took to social media to rave about his performance following the brilliant victory.

What has been said about Liam Delap after win over Man City

Daniel Munoz was the first to take to Instagram to sum up the performance of Delap, posting the word ‘Impeccable’, which just about delivers a pretty accurate assessment.

Gibbs-White is a leader in the dressing room at the City Ground, and although he wasn’t the captain yesterday, he was the catalyst for a top performance from the Reds.

Chelsea star Tosin Adarabioyo was one of the players to send him a message, with the player previously spending time playing alongside Delap at Stamford Bridge.

The challenge for Delap now is to stay fit, keep his place in the team and keep proving people wrong by scoring regular goals for the Reds.

England could beckon for Delap if he can add consistency to his goal scoring, and it would be largely beneficial for the Reds if he can now remain on the goal trail and fire the team up the Premier League table.
