Highly-regarded product of the West Ham Academy (originally as a left back) who caught the eye as the driving force in Yeovil Town's midfield during 2006. Forest were strongly rumoured to be close to signing him during the January 2007 transfer window, but in the end had to wait until July, signing him as part of a double deal with Arron Davies.
Though Cohen missed the start of the season as he recovered from a close season hernia operation, once he start he never stopped running; he was Forest's "engine" for game after game as the team gradually gelled - not least as they put together 6 wins and a draw in their final 7 games to snatch automatic promotion on a dramatic final day. He needs to score more goals, and his final ball can sometimes need work, but he is very much one for the future, and a player I confidently expect to play a big role in next season's Championship campaign.
