Nuno responds to Liverpool boss Arne Slot after Nottingham Forest insult Nuno Espirito Santo told Liverpool boss Arne Slot “money doesn’t play football” after he suggested Nottingham Forest have spent their way to success this season.
Slot was complimentary about Nuno and Forest ahead of the game, with his comments on their spending, declaring: “Nuno is doing an incredible job, but if you look at the amount of money they (have) spent it is not a complete surprise that they do well this season.”.
The Portuguese boss responded to his opposite number at Anfield after the Dutchman suggested Nottingham Forest’s lofty Premier League position was not unexpected given the investment in their playing squad.
Nuno has guided his side to six-successive victories in the league and they would move to within three points of Liverpool with victory on Tuesday night.
Nuno also said the suggestion his side were involved in a Premier League title race was based on “if, if, if, if”.
