John
30-Year-Old
Nottingham Forest
Premier
Stuck in backup role
John has yet to play a minute in any competition this season.
ANALYSIS
John has been limited to a backup role behind Matz Sels, who has started every match across the Premier League and cup competition so far. With Sels firmly established as the first-choice goalkeeper and also receiving the cup starts, John has had virtually no route to playing time. His opportunities should remain scarce unless Sels is rested or unavailable.
