“Isn’t up to scratch.” Kelvin Wilson believes ‘nervous’ Nottingham Forest player is not good enough.

Kelvin Wilson questioned Nottingham Forest custodian Matt Turner following another error in Saturday’s defeat to Brentford.

The Forest Focus podcast featured an interview with the man who once played for Forest.

So, what did Wilson say about Forest’s custodian Turner after the weekend? Let’s look more closely.

What Kelvin Wilson has said about Forest custodian Matt Turner

Well, it’s fair to say that the man who played for Forest under Billy Davies isn’t particularly fond of Turner’s goalkeeping.

Turner has made high-profile errors for Forest this season, including against Liverpool and Manchester United, and he did not shine brightly on Saturday.

The 29-year-old let Ivan Toney sidefoot a free kick around his feeble wall, bringing Brentford level in the game.

Wilson believes that Forest’s current custodian situation could cost the club its Premier League status if it is not resolved.

He told the Forest Focus podcast, “Without being disrespectful, it’s definitely a backward step in that position. I think it’s really important if Forest are to stay in the league then they need to get a goalkeeper this month, I honestly think that.

“I know it sounds disrespectful to Turner but his form isn’t up to scratch for where Forest need to be. Being a goalkeeper these days it’s not just about your hands and the saves you make, you’ve got to be able to play now.

“If that’s the way Forest want to play with Nuno, it’s going to be important. If they don’t get one I’d stick with Turner, they can’t keep swapping it. I just feel with Turner he looks nervous before games.”

Forest are in need of a goalkeeper but are unlikely to find one.

Nuno Espirito Santo plans to strengthen his squad this month to maintain their Premier League status.

He may eventually want to sign a goalkeeper, but the club may not allow him to do so.

Turner and Odysseas Vlachodimos signed for a combined £20 million in the summer, and Forest may insist he work with the pair.

Jose Sa has been linked with Forest, but he is currently Wolves’ first-choice custodian.

Forest have other areas that need to be strengthened, and a new custodian may have to wait for the time being.
