Nottingham Forest striker Daryl Murphy is fit to face Burton Albion tomorrow.

But should Karanka issue the powerful frontman a starting berth?

We discuss...

Sam Preston

Don't rush it and give Brereton another run out.

Murphy should be ahead of Vellios in the pecking order but Brereton should still be the top pick.

He's a good plan B and knows how to score at this level but don't throw him in just yet.

Adam Simeoni

A big target man that can score goals? It's a surprise he hasn't already been utilised more frequently during the club's barren run.

Murphy will hold up the ball and bring people into play, as well as snuffling the chances that come his way.

Karanka has to choose him this weekend.

George Dagless

I certainly think so.

Murphy has experience and Forest need that as much as possible to get out of this rut.

Apostolos Vellios hasn't done much in recent games and so it's time for Murphy to return to the fold.

Alfie Burns

If the striker is fit, he should absolutely start this weekend.

Forest have missed the Irishman when he hasn’t featured this season, and under Mark Warburton, they looked a far better outfit with the striker spearheading the attack.

He seems to bring the best out of Forest’s deeper attacking players.
