Nuno goes to Forest

[StaffordWolf]

Meanwhile, in a house somewhere in Wolverhampton, JL waits for the perfect job…

What does he know that we don’t?

United job up for grabs soon.

 

[Supadavewolf]

With the current bottom three all apparently doomed l doubt it.

I still think Rob Edwards might keep Luton in the hunt

I still think Rob Edwards might keep Luton in the hunt

Mick-style they will be organised and work hard but they lack both quality and depth. They may get close but l suspect valiant failure awaits. I reckon that they will look to build their new ground and have another shot at promotion next season.

United job up for grabs soon.

I would think, despite the horrendous injuries, that Howe must be at risk too.

 

[Sedgers]

Loan move for Cody?

 

[Sussex Wolf]

United job up for grabs soon.

Now that would be hysterical!

 

[Sussex Wolf]

I would think, despite the horrendous injuries, that Howe must be at risk too.

I think that a more likely destination for JL than Man Utd. Were that to happen, Mendes would be rubbing his hands at the opportunity to trade players through the Saudi network.

 

[WickedWolfie]

Loan move for Cody?

A loan from Leicester to Trees? Can't see that!

 

[Jefe]

Seems inevitable that this appointment will result in another massive influx of players at Forest in January.

I can see a lot of movement at Forest in January, but mostly out to fund any new arrivals. Nuno prefers a smaller squad, which ain't the situation at present. I imagine conversations with the owner involved upcoming FFP challenges, so a big sell off of the fringe players like we did in the Summer might kill two birds with one stone.

As others have suggested, I can definitely see a loan move for Coady - repair him with Boly in a back five. I suspect he will write off the previous with MGW as water under the bridge and look to build the team around him.

 

[GigaWolf]

Wonder if he will try to poach Raul from fulham

 

[Bryce]

Wood ,Santos, Omobamdiele Tavares Montierl Felipe Aurier, Worral, Mckenna And Volchodimos could all be heading out from their first team squad then

I would take Wood on loan and Volchodimos is better than Bentley but thats pushing it.

 

[Ercall Wolves]

Really hope Nuno doesn’t end up at Forest

 

[Northampton_wolf]

cooper officially gone, expect nuno in soon

 

[Perton Wolf]

Really hope Nuno doesn’t end up at Forest

It's inevitable, Cooper has gone.

Would expect Nuno to be announced tonight or early tomorrow judging by what the journos are saying.

 

[StaffordWolf]

I feel awful but I can't say I hope he does well there...

 

[lets all have a disco]

Really hope Nuno doesn’t end up at Forest

Too late to cross ya fingers....it's done

 

[Perton Wolf]

Will be interesting to see how both Nuno and his style is received at Forest when you consider how their fanbase were still very much behind Cooper.

 

[Wednesbury Wolf]

Nuno to Forest is hardly an upgrade can't imagine their fans will be pleased.

 

[lets all have a disco]

Podence to Forest I wonder....

 

[Jefe]

Nuno to Forest is hardly an upgrade can't imagine their fans will be pleased.

Their fans don't seem to be pleased, but Nuno absolutely is an upgrade on Cooper. He's levels above him, and I think that will gradually dawn on them.

 

[StaffordWolf]

Sorry but Nuno is streets ahead of Cooper. What has Cooper done apart from her them promoted from the champ?

 

[dewolfman]

lads, get over it, nuno has gone.

 

[Wonder Boyo]

I think it'll also depend on who Nuno is allowed to bring with him. The expertise and professionalism of our backroom team were also key to our success. They also all loved it at Wolves. I remember they used to sing along to "Hi ho Wolverhampton" on the bench.

 

[Watfordfc]

Nuno will probably be a good choice but he will to start well otherwise the fans will put pressure on him replacing a very popular manager .

 

[Tring Wolf]

The most shocking thing about all this is finding out that Steve Cooper is 44!

 

[SuperGran]

Championship winners
2 7th placed finish
1 Europa quarter final
1 Fa cup semi final

No comparison

 

[SuperGran]

There’s a 4 missing surely

 

[SakosRightFoot]

Sorry but Nuno is streets ahead of Cooper. What has Cooper done apart from her them promoted from the champ?

U17 World Cup?

 

[SuperGran]

U17 World Cup?

Impressed that Forest won the World Cup even with the u 17s

 

[Krispy Kreme]

I hope this is a joke? Can’t stand Forrest. I hope he takes them down.

Got no special reason to dislike Forest. The recent social media nonsense.

Got every reason to wish NES does well, except against us obviously.

 

[Fifty Niner]

Depends if he serves up the same dour dross he did during his final season with us and during his stint with Spurs.

I thought he was 44 when he had that horrific accident

 

[Minimalist]

I was going to say MGW and him dont see eye to eye.

But i expect with the lost dressing room nuno will be expected to galvanise and trim squad to a small working effective arrangement

Not sure all this is true.
Morgan was one of the players that put out some very appreciative and complimentary words (via twitter or something) when Nuno left.
Also it’s largely believed that cooper would have preferred a smaller close nit squad, that factor was taken out of his hands…

 

[hollo]

It will cost a lot to hire nuno's backroom staff.

 

[Rednal Wolf]

I would take Wood on loan and Volchodimos is better than Bentley but thats pushing

Id take Voldemort from Hogwarts's FC after Bentleys performance at the weekend

 

[Dorbelflunk]

Judging by online discourse today, especially from other teams, it's sad to see how low Nuno's reputation is amongst other supporters. We had three unforgettable seasons, and the lows are the end were far from the worst times. The Spurs story should be a footnote but because of the TV bias it's likely all some people remember.

I don't think he'll push Forest on without investment, and feel this appointment will make him a 'managerial merry go round' type manager when he's much more than that.

 

[SingleMalt]

Nuno will probably be a good choice but he will to start well otherwise the fans will put pressure on him replacing a very popular manager .

That’s my take on it too, it looks like a poisoned chalice and he’s once again walking into a job where the majority of fans (it appears) don’t want him. I can’t help but feel that unless things click right away then it won’t go well for him.

 

[Andywolf74]

I personally feel that it was time to part company with Nuno but not for the ridiculous replacement in Lage.
Assuming he deploys a similar approach with Forest as he did with us then very interested to see how things pan out.

Just seen he's agreed terms with Forest. Pleased he won't be bringing them to Molineux this season; that would be just too difficult to see him in the away dugout. It will be bad enough watching him pit his wits against us in April. I wish him all the best at Forest.

Not as much as Lopetegui’s…..
