Nottingham Forest should axe three players as their full stats emerge from Crystal Palace defeat

Oliver Glasner had a far-from-ideal return to Selhurst Park this weekend, as Nottingham Forest lost 3-1 to Crystal Palace.

Despite Dan Ndoye taking the lead for the visitors after just three minutes on Sunday, 11 October, the Eagles made their chances count.

Daichi Kamada, Jefferson Lerma, albeit controversially, and Yeremi Pino found the back of the net to secure all three points against Glasner's side.

It was a match that left Forest floundering down in 14th in the Premier League table, and in desperate need of a positive result against Arsenal.

The upcoming clash with the Gunners was already looking like a difficult one, and now there will be a lack of confidence on Sunday, 18 October.

Glasner will need to make changes, so Football Insider has taken a look at three players who deserve to be dropped at the City Ground next time around.

Liam Delap

Despite a positive start to life at the City Ground, Liam Delap appeared quite lost up front by himself, deservedly being replaced after 72 minutes.

Chris Wood instantly had a chance and should have scored with it, and if Forest stand any chance of getting points off Arsenal, he needs to be part of the squad.

Xaver Schlager

Another player who has made a bright start in the Premier League, but he appeared way out of his depth at Selhurst Park on this occasion.

Glasner made the correct call to replace him with Ibrahim Sangare in the 66th minute, and that same change should be in place against the Gunners.

Daniel Munoz

Daniel Munoz was already one who some felt should have been axed for the Palace clash, and those voices have only increased now.

The wing-back really struggled down the right flank, with a lot of the play coming down that side, and it will only be more of the same with Arsenal.
