Lewis Grabban has been hugely influential for Nottingham Forest ever since arriving at the City Ground in 2018.

The experienced striker scored 20 goals in the 2017/18 campaign, spending the season on loan at Sunderland and then Aston Villa from AFC Bournemouth.

But the following summer, Forest swooped to sign Grabban for a fee of £6m - that has certainly proved to be money well spent.

Has Grabban done these 12 things at Nottingham Forest?

 

Last season was a hugely disappointing one for Forest - a top-six finish looked likely under Aitor Karanka, but his sacking in January led to the appointment of Martin O'Neill, who saw his side drop like a stone.

Nevertheless, Grabban - a proven forward at this level - scored 17 goals for the Reds in his first season at the City Ground, and he has since become even more important.

Under Sabri Lamouchi, Forest have flourished, and a top-six finish is on the cards for the East Midlands club whenever the season may resume.

Ahead of the final nine games of the season, whenever they may be played, Grabban has scored 17 goals, beating last season's tally already.

Scoring vital goals against Derby County, Hull City and Fulham to name only a few, the striker has spearheaded Forest to fifth place in the Sky Bet Championship table.

The club's Twitter account has recently posted an appreciation post for Grabban, and here's how plenty of fans reacted...
