Now is the ideal time for Nottingham Forest to secure Chris Cohen’s emotional return to the team. In 2021, the coach departed to join Nathan Jones at Luton Town.
Chris Hughton didn’t make nearly enough of an effort to retain Cohen at Forest at the time. The man who made 303 appearances for the team ought to have been given a role from the minute he made the decision that he wanted to try out men’s coaching.
Rather, Forest let Cohen go into the sunset and started a career that has significantly improved Cohen’s coaching standing.
Forest now has the ideal opportunity to get Cohen back.
Jamie Robinson has officially left Steve Cooper’s coaching team, it was confirmed yesterday. He is leaving to concentrate on his side project, a coaching consultancy that he has been running for a few months.
The Reds now have room for an additional coach as a result. The contemporary Forest hero Cohen is not employed full-time at the moment, but in recent weeks, he has been observed assisting Lincoln City interim manager Tom Shaw.
Working with Cohen under Forest head coach Cooper would be ideal. Like the Reds’ manager, he is still in the early phases of his coaching career, and the 43-year-old may teach the man who served the team with distinction a lot.
We would throw open our arms to welcome Cohen back.
Such a dude. A specific age group of supporters will always consider Cohen to be their favorite Forest player. Despite suffering three severe knee injuries, he always gave everything he had to the Garibaldi and would have participated.
Naturally, it’s unclear what Cohen wants to pursue in the future. Maybe he wants to try his hand at self-management. Another theory is that he just waits for Jones to reenter management before reestablishing contact with him.
Still, the 36-year-old is really attached to Forest. He’s been spotted both at home and away from games since the team’s Premier League comeback, so it goes without saying that he would be thrilled to be back.
