Matz Sels saved a penalty in first-half stoppage time, and Joao Pedro’s late stoppage time goal proved to be nothing more than a consolation.

The Reds produced a superb team performance, and after the game, Jamie Carragher waxed lyrical about two players who he loves to watch.

Nottingham Forest duo impress Jamie Carragher

Forest put Morgan Gibbs-White and Elliot Anderson on at half-time, and the duo combined to tee up Awoniyi to score his second goal and make it 3-0 to Forest.

It’s another goal contribution for Gibbs-White, who produced this showing in front of the England boss Thomas Tuchel, who was at Stamford Bridge.

Carragher has admitted after the game that he enjoys watching both Gibbs-White and Anderson when they’re strutting their stuff at Forest.

Carragher said on Sky Sports: “Morgan Gibbs-White, Elliot Anderson, I love the two of them, they’re two superstars, they really are. They’ve teamed up well and I really rate them.”

Tuchel needs to pair Anderson and Gibbs-White together for England

It proved a bad afternoon for Cole Palmer, who missed a penalty in front of the England boss and then watched on as Gibbs-White put the seal on a Forest win by setting up Awoniyi.

Tuchel simply has to utilise Anderson and Gibbs-White together for England, and ultimately, he’s running out of excuses to keep ignoring the Forest number 10.

Hopefully, common sense can prevail, and Gibbs-White gets a chance for England before the World Cup, which takes place in the summer.

Gibbs-White came on determined to prove a point and whenever he plays at the moment, he’s got an eye for goal and a creative spark currently unrivalled in the Premier League.
