The Verdict

Whilst Barbet has every right to feel disappointed by QPR's defeat earlier this week, he will need to dust himself down ahead of Friday's meeting with Forest.

An ever-present in the Hoops' starting eleven, the 28-year-old has illustrated his versatility this season by featuring in several positions for his side.

Currently averaging a relatively impressive WhoScored match rating of 6.98 in the Championship, Barbet clearly knows exactly what it takes to compete at this level.

Taking this into consideration, it wouldn't be at all surprising if the defender produces an assured display against Forest if he is given the nod to start by Warburton in this fixture.
