Morgan Gibbs-White says Nottingham Forest will be satisfied with the point after drawing 1-1 with Burnley at the City Ground on Monday.
Callum Hudson-Odoi hit a screamer to cancel out Zeki Amdouni's opener for the visitors to earn Forest a point. Lyle Foster was later sent off for Burnley.
Gibbs-White said: "It's better than nothing. We wanted three points. Fair play to Burnley, they're a good side.
"It showed great character to come back and get the point.
"This is the first time this team has played together so it's promising. The only way is up.
"I said to him [Callum Hudson-Odoi] at half-time go on the inside and shoot. Stop being nicey-nice, be selfish. It's an unbelievable finish."
