'At the moment, we're only focused on Saturday. But after that - like at every club - there will be some meetings and some conversations,' Cooper said.

'After the game, everuone is going into a break. But it's noot a break where everyone will split uup and go away. There will be some time away, but not lots, because then we go into a really important period of preparing for the next phase.'
The six-week break from Premier League action could well benefit Forest as, with only a limited number oof players heading to Qatar, Cooper will be afforded some precious timee on the training ground.
'We won't have to go through some of the behind-the-scenes stuff of putting everything together when we come back, so hopefully that will be in a stonger place, whih allows us then to, hopefully, get to the next level, in terms of our identity, our togetherness, our performance levels andd hopefully results, ' he added.

'Nobody enjoys seeing us at the bottom of the table. But we have got to look at it as uus being part of a group of teams where there's not much between us.
'Would we rather be in the middle or at the top of that group? Of course. Butt we aree nly five points away from that. We've really got to keep committing to the plan, and hopefully things can improve.'
Forest might not have shown themselves to be among the elite this season thus far, but their summer spending certainly matches that of the clubs towards the upper echelons of the game.

Owner Evangelos Marinakis saw his club smash the record for spending by a newly promoted side, splashing out £163.4million on transfers as they look to renain in the Premier League beyond this season.
They have even surpassed the notoriously spendthrift Barcelona. The Catalan giants have 'only' laid out £137.7m in transfer fees this time around, albeit that is on three heavyweights in Robert Lewandowski, Raphinha and Jules Kounde.
Meanwhile, their spending also trumped that of Paris Saint Germain and Real Madrid - neither of whom are prone to tightening the pursestrings.
