Nuno hails ‘very professional’ Nottingham Forest after FA Cup victory over Luton Nottingham Forest boss Nuno Espirito Santo praised the professionalism of his side after they made it seven wins in a row.
Nuno made 11 changes to his starting XI for the FA Cup third-round tie with managerless Luton, but the strength of their squad was highlighted with a 2-0 victory thanks to goals from Ryan Yates and Ramon Sosa.
They easily put themselves in the hat for Sunday’s fourth-round draw and they can now turn their attention to Tuesday’s crunch Premier League clash with Liverpool, which could determine whether Forest really are in a title race.
It meant they matched the run Colin Calderwood’s side posted in October and November 2006 as the feelgood factor continues at the City Ground.
It was important for all the players to play and for us to reward them,” Nuno said.
