Glasner fears he will be next Forest sacking if wins don't follow
Nottingham Forest head coach Oliver Glasner warns he will be the fifth sacking in just over a year by the club, unless results improve soon.
Since the beginning of the last season, Nottingham Forest have seen five distinct managers. Sean Dyche began his tenure less than two weeks after taking the helm, followed by Nuno Espirito Santo, Ange Postecoglou, Vitor Pereira, and now Oliver Glasner. After just one win in their first nine league matches, Glasner has warned that if players do not follow his instructions and results do not improve soon, he may have to hire a sixth manager.
Speaking after Forest's 2-0 loss to Brentford on Saturday, Glasner emphasized the need for compromise and clear direction, stating that if players do not adhere, the sixth manager will be brought in. Forest currently sits 19th in the league, just one point away from the bottom, and their recent form has been unimpressive, with only one draw out of their last five league games.
Glasner has promised to make changes and vowed to change things, emphasizing the need for improvement in defense and finishing. Despite the frequent changes in management, Forest's performance this season has been similar to the previous year, with only one win in the first nine league games. Glasner, who joined Forest from Crystal Palace, brought significant success to Palace but has yet to replicate that success at Forest.
