Vitor Pereira - Our Manager

[Username]

Im not remotely surprised and tbh it’s better we change now than having a poor start and yet another mid season sacking.

However the optics of 5 managers in 10 months is beyond shocking. If you’re a young ambitious player looking for a new club and you have Premier League suitors are you going to choose nice stable Brighton or the circus that is Nottingham Forest?

Well we’d point to the development of Anderson, MGW, Neco, Murillo and how they have progressed in this environment?

Oliver Glasner will succeed Vitor Pereira with the Portuguese head coach expected to leave Nottingham Forest.

Telegraph Sport understands that discussions are ongoing about Pereira’s future but the likelihood is he will not carry on.

Glasner left Crystal Palace at the end of last season, after their Europa Conference League victory, having run down his contract and turned down offers to stay.

Pereira’s departure would be a shock despite Forest’s remarkable turnover of head coaches in the past year.

Pereira was hired in February on an 18-month deal and steered Forest to Premier League safety following the sacking of Sean Dyche.

If he leaves then his successor will be the fourth manager brought in since Nuno Espirito Santo was dismissed in September. Since then Forest have also employed Ange Postecoglou, who only lasted a few weeks.

Forest owner Evangelos Marinikas is extremely ambitious and has invested heavily in the squad. Although Pereira did well in stabilising Forest in the Premier League there was huge disappointment at the way they exited the Europa League – which had been targeted as a winnable trophy – losing in the semi-final to Aston Villa, who went on to win it.

Glasner has been linked to a number of top jobs after it was confirmed he was leaving Palace, where he was the club’s most successful manager in their history having also won the FA Cup and Community Shield.

The Austrian was considered by Manchester United, before they decided to keep faith with Michael Carrick who had been brought in as a caretaker. He was also on Chelsea’s list before they hired Xabi Alonso.

This isn’t written by JP so not from the Forest end?

Mostly progressed under Nuno. You cant tell me that the managerial churn has helped any of them, their talent has shone through in spite of it not because of it.

343 3421 from glasner mainly I think?

Wonder if we could tempt Wharton here if glasner signs though with no Europe probably not likely. Averaged 75 mins a game in the prem last seasons

BBC reporting it is glasner 'BBC Sport understands a deal to appoint the Austrian is virtually done with just the formalities left to complete'

I'm surprised about this, if it happens. We do not have the players to play his style of football. Would need a huge overhaul again.

Seen elsewhere it’s done, and Mateta likely to follow and c£200 - £250m planned to spend on new players. Surely not!

Anderson’s best season was last season, Nuno was only in charge of two of those games?

So you’re telling me if Man City sack Maresca in October he’ll win the Ballon D’Or?

Beat me to it Wassy

Not sure about the all key players, pretty clear Anderson is going.

The thing with Vitor, just my opinion and sorry if it annoys anyone, I have a feeling we will give him a new contract…….and in December we will be looking for a new head coach.

Not just ando - mgw, Sangare and Williams all had their best seasons imo.

Sadly it was the falloff everywhere else on the pitch that buggered us
