This does seem an odd one. It appears something has gone on between Worrall and Cooper, which is sad if it has as it seems out of character for both of them.
It does seem the way under Marinakis that once you don't fit you have to clear out. Didn't Worrall sign a new contract recently, partly I thought to retain some sale value? This must devalue him.
Although the headline - "Steve Cooper under scrutiny after freezing out Nottingham Forest captain Joe Worrall" does seem an odd framing. Correlation is not causation, John.
There has been some story that after he was dropped from the squad that he had a massive strop and didn’t turn up to something. If so, freezing out is fairly standard procedure.
Of course, perfect Steve can do no wrong, so it must be Marinakis’ fault.
