Since March's 3-0 win at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Nottingham Forest's survival bid was bolstered, while Spurs struggled until the final matchday. Since then, the club has splashed out over £300 million on new players, accounting for the record £3.49 billion Premier League spending this summer. On Saturday, Sandro Tonali, Jon Paul Van Hecke, Savio and Omar Marmoush started the match, alongside Roberto de Zerbi.
Speaking to Sky Sports, the manager expressed calmness after the team's blank performance. Despite disappointment with the result, de Zerbi was pleased with the team's performance. He emphasized the need for improvement in every aspect of the game, both with and without the ball. De Zerbi noted that the team defended well and found solutions when playing with the ball.
He also highlighted the need for better finishing in the final third. Former midfielder Danny Murphy agreed with de Zerbi, stating that Spurs lacked calmness and composure in crucial situations.
