Done Deal: Nottingham forest has finally concluded to sack Nuno Espirito santo few minutes ago

Nottingham Forest are flying high in the Premier League this season having picked up another three points.

 

Nuno Espirito Santo‘s men picked up maximum points on Friday night against Leicester City at the King Power Stadium.

 

 

Going into Saturday’s run of Premier League fixtures, Forest now sit fifth in the Premier League table with 16 points from their opening nine games.

 

After a 2023/24 campaign which was threatened by relegation, the Reds already have a 13-point cushion on Crystal Palace who sit in 18th spot.

 

There may well be tougher challenges to come for Forest but Nuno’s side are providing a surprisingly good account of themselves so far.

Chris Wood deserves all the praise he is getting

After Ryan Yates opened the scoring, Chris Wood was able to find the back of the net twice to secure the points for the Reds in their 3-1 victory.

 

The New Zealand international (7) is now the second-highest scorer in the Premier League this season with only Erling Haaland (10) having returned more goals.

 

However, there is one Forest forward whose performance may now go under the radar due to Wood’s exceptional showing.

Winger Callum Hudson-Odoi enjoyed an impressive 2023/24 campaign with Forest but he has taken a little longer to get up an running this term.

 

The 23-year-old has only returned one goal so far but it was a seriously important goal coming in the away win against Liverpool.

 

Despite not adding any goal contributions to his name on Friday night, the former Chelsea winger put on a real showing against Forest’s former manager.
