Nuno says Forest have ‘belief’ they can maintain surprise European bid Nottingham Forest boss Nuno Espirito Santo says his side believe they can have a special season after enjoying a Boxing Day success over Tottenham.
Anthony Elanga’s first-half goal saw Forest register a fourth successive Premier League win for the first time since 1995 as they strengthened their European ambitions.
“We believe that we can compete as long as everybody understands that every player in the squad is huge for us, especially in this schedule that we have.”.
They sit third, with a five-point cushion over fifth-placed Newcastle, and are looking a good bet for a surprise Champions League qualification bid, having already amassed more points than the whole of last season.
While Forest are dreaming of Europe, Tottenham’s nightmare season took another turn for the worse, with a fifth defeat from eight league matches.
