BBC Radio Nottingham's Colin Fray has been answering your questions about Nottingham Forest.

Barry asked: What can Edu bring to the 'Marinakis Football Group' if he is appointed following his departure from Arsenal? Would his recruitment have a negative response with the Forest recruitment staff after the best transfer window in decades at the City Ground?

Colin answered: It is going to be interesting to see what effect Edu can bring if his appointment is confirmed.

I would expect, in the same way as with a football dressing room, staff would see his arrival as a boost to their squad rather than being a rival.

The role would be a little different with him working across multiple clubs, but he now has five years of experience with the Gunners and if he can recreate the work he did there to help Forest progress, it should help them to the next level.
