Burnley man sends warning to Nottingham Forest ahead of Premier League clash

The latest Nottingham Forest news as the Reds return to action on Monday night as they take on newly-promoted Burnley at the City Ground.

Burnley midfielder Josh Brownhill has warned Nottingham Forest that his side will go all-out for victory when they visit the City Ground on Monday (7.45pm kick-off).

The Clarets have had a rough start to life back in the Premier League, having lost their first three games. After losing 5-2 to Tottenham in their last game, Vincent Kompany’s team are bottom of the standings on goal difference.

Forest host Burnley after a two week international break. Unlike their opposition, the Reds go into the game full of confidence. Steve Cooper ’s men were 1-0 winners at Chelsea in their last game.

But Brownhill has hinted that Forest’s Stamford Bridge result will not phase him and his teammates as they go in search of their first win of the season.

“We’ve had a really tough start. You go in there [the dressing room] and the lads are going to be down, rightfully so, because we didn’t put out our best performance,” he said after the loss against Tottenham, via Burnley Express .

“But it’s a long season, it’s a tough one. It’s completely different to last season, so we’ve got to stick with it, keep learning, but we’ve also got to take it up another level because this is what the Premier League is.

“There’s a little bit of a break now, which is a chance to relax and come back with a game against Forest, which is a big game for us where we’ll 100% be going out for the win.”

Burnley earned promotion by winning the Championship last season in what was Kompany’s first season in charge of the club. They have signed 15 new players over the summer, and Brownhill has a message about the Premier League to his new teammates.

“We’ve recruited some quality players, you can see it in spells. On the ball individually they’re very good,” he added.
