"Forest have had some very good strikers down the years," Collymore tells FourFourTwo on behalf of NewBettingSites.uk. "Pierre van Hooijdonk came after me and, with the greatest respect to Chris, I wouldn't put him in the same category as Pierre. Pierre scored goals left, right and centre - left foot, right foot, free-kicks, you name it. Nottingham Forest have settled down after that crazy period of transfer activity they went through two or three years ago and I think that has helped everyone."
"Chris has always been a handful," Collymore continues. "Particularly at Burnley and now, thankfully, again at Forest. When you have pace down the wings and players who are willing to put balls into the box, he is very effective. He's also a hard worker and a runner. He'll gallop after balls played in behind and make a nuisance of himself. At Newcastle United, that didn't happen enough, but it's happening now at Forest and I'm delighted for him."
