Nuno Espirito Santo
Ahead of Saturday’s clash with West Ham United at the City Ground (3pm kick-off), the Reds sit seventh in the table. Most recently, they triumphed 3-1 away to Leicester City last Friday night courtesy of a Chris Wood brace and a goal from Ryan Yates. They have also toppled Liverpool at Anfield, drawn with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, and claimed their first home win of the campaign by seeing off Crystal Palace earlier this month.
However, Nuno is not getting carried away by the club’s lofty position in the standings. He wants his team to keep their feet on the ground and acknowledge they must keep such levels going if they are to continue to kick on this term.
Nuno Espirito Santo said, “When there are too many, it is a mistake. That is just the way that I see things. I have been around too many years to know that honeymoons do not last forever, you know? The problem is to sustain it. It is very difficult. The challenge is to continue to demand the same because nothing changes.”
Forest have an opportunity to make it three Premier League wins in a row when they host the Hammers this weekend. Not since May 1999 have they managed such an achievement in the top flight.
