Nottingham Forest ace sends two-word Instagram message to West Brom flop
Nottingham Forest star Matty Cash has taken to Instagram to send a message to West Brom forward Oliver Burke.
The Scotland international has endured a torrid time during his spell with the Baggies, and has spent the past season and a half out on loan, first at Celtic, and then at Alaves in Spain.
During his time on the continent, he managed just one goal and two assists in 31 La Liga appearances.
But it looks as if Burke is trying to put his 2019/20 woes behind him by relaxing during the closed season.
The 23-year-old took to Instagram to share a photo of himself and Cash, who was a teammate during the early years of his career at Forest, alongside the caption: “No caption needed”.
Cash then responded to the post with the reply: “My bro” and a heart emoji.

There will be a fair few West Brom fans hoping that Burke leaves the club this summer.
Things just haven’t worked out for the flying Scot at The Hawthorns, and after two fairly underwhelming loan spells, he is surely running out of time to prove that he has what it takes to be a success for Albion.
Maybe it is too late for him to do that even.
According to The Athletic journalist Steve Madeley, the Baggies are eager to sell the 23-year-old if possible this summer, and face the alternative of losing him on a free this time next year.
Barring some sort of miracle, it looks as if Burke will go down as a major, major flop.
