Nottingham Forest has had a mixed start to the Premier League season, with a strong win against Brentford followed by a draw with Crystal Palace and a heavy defeat against West Ham. As the team heads into the international break, there are a few key areas that Nuno Espirito Santo must address to improve their performance going forward.
- Repair Relationship with Evangelos Marinakis:
The reported rift between Nuno Espirito Santo and Nottingham Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis needs to be resolved. Building trust and communication between the manager and the owner is crucial for the team’s success. The upcoming talks during the international break provide an opportunity to mend the relationship and move forward positively. - Build Trust in New Signings:
Nottingham Forest has made several new signings, but some have not yet earned the manager’s trust. Nuno needs to integrate the new players into the squad and give them opportunities to prove themselves on the field. Utilizing the international break to work closely with the summer arrivals can help build team cohesion and depth. - Improve Defensive Strength:
Last season, Nottingham Forest had a strong defensive record, but this season they have struggled to keep clean sheets. Nuno must work on solidifying the defense and improving their ability to prevent goals. Developing a tactical plan to tighten the defense and working on defensive strategies during the break can help the team regain their defensive solidity and improve results in the future.
Addressing these key areas during the international break will be essential for Nottingham Forest to bounce back stronger and achieve their goals in the Premier League.
