When Nottingham Forest got back into action on Saturday following the international break, the outcome wasn’t quite what they had hoped for. At the City Ground, the Reds gave up a two-goal lead to Luton Town and were forced to settle for a draw. On Sunday, there is a trip to play Liverpool. Further misfortune on the injury front limited head coach Steve Cooper’s options on the field this past weekend; however, Ola Aina emerged from the bench and Serge Aurier was cleared to play after initially being doubtful. As Forest gets ready for the match at Anfield, we look…
Divock Origi signed with AC Milan in July 2022 after his Liverpool contract expired. After his time at Anfield, a few clubs had expressed interest in giving the striker a chance in the hopes of using him more effectively than Jurgen Klopp had. The race was won by AC Milan, and there was probably too much hype surrounding the signing. After a season, they looked to part ways because things didn’t work out between the Rossoneri, sending him to Nottingham Forest. That was it from the Series A club’s perspective. Given the relatively low fee of €4.5 million that Nottingham…
Southampton striker Ross Stewart is yet to make an appearance for the St. Mary’s outfit following his £10m arrival from Sunderland in the summer. When healthy and available, Southampton striker Ross Stewart could “transform” the St. Mary’s team’s offensive. In an interview with GIVEMESPORT, writer Dean Jones mentions a Saints player who stands to gain from the summer signing’s comeback to action. Despite a difficult beginning to his time on the south coast, Russell Martin is determined to propel the team back into the Premier League. The former Swansea City manager has been under fire for the past month, but…
Storm Babet’s chaos at King’s Cross Station prevented some Southampton fans from attending the match. After coming on as Stuart Armstrong’s replacement on minute 84, Fraser scored his first goal for Southampton with a volley that went past Ryan Allsop to enthrall the crowd. The 29-year-old was quick to thank the supporters for their part in the victory and for making the challenging journey to Hull in an interview with the Daily Echo following the game. He declared: “This team’s fight and the way the manager has us believing in ourselves are definitely evident in the late winner. “We believe…
Following their relegation, Southampton saw a sizable player exodus; however, Carlos Alcaraz chose to remain, demonstrating his dedication to the team. Alcaraz’s quality and potential as a player were evident in January when Newcastle United expressed interest in signing him. With goals and assists, Alcaraz has been a great asset to Southampton, and his plays have been crucial to the team’s success this year. Their chances of getting promoted will depend greatly on his inventiveness and capacity to overcome formidable defenses. Many important players were sold by Southampton during the summer transfer window. Many significant players left for other positions…
Several of QPR’s current strikers have failed to score in their club appearances, reflecting their lack of success in the attacking department. With just one appearance for QPR in his five seasons with the team, Marco Ramkilde is the worst striker the club has had in the last five years. Despite his inconsistent play in front of goal, Lyndon Dykes has been an important member of QPR’s squad, contributing 30 goals to the team’s total so far. As time goes on, Queens Park Rangers will be hoping to improve upon their current Championship standings. The club was led to safety…
Luton Town scored twice late on, including an injury-time effort from Elijah Adebayo, to come back from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 at Nottingham Forest. The home side had appeared to be cruising to all three points at the City Ground thanks to a second-half double from striker Chris Wood. But Steve Cooper’s side took their eye off the ball in the closing stages, allowing Chiedozie Ogbene to give the visitors hope of an unlikely point with seven minutes to go, before substitute Adebayo’s last-gasp intervention, with Hatters boss Rob Edwards saying of his striker: “He’s got these little moments…
Even though Queens Park Rangers lost for the fourth time in a row yesterday, manager Gareth Ainsworth is confident that his team will still have a successful season. The Hoops have had a terrible start to the season, collecting just eight points from their first 12 games, and now find themselves in the bottom three of the Championship. Furthermore, since defeating Middlesbrough on September 2nd, they have failed to win three points. Yesterday’s match was very similar. Kian Harratt and Jack Rudoni scored two goals for Huddersfield Town early on, but Jake Clarke-Salter gave Ainsworth’s team a goal just before…
In the competition to sign Brentford striker Ivan Toney, Chelsea has put in more groundwork than Arsenal. Journalist Simon Phillips says as much. Si Phillips recently asserted on his Substack Si Phillips Talks Chelsea podcast that Arsenal has not done as much as Chelsea has in terms of setting the foundation for the signing of Ivan Toney “as of now.” The Evening Standard revealed last month that both Chelsea and Arsenal are considering January moves for the 27-year-old. The same source claims that he might set his next club back £80 million. Chelsea is frantically attempting to sign Brentford’s Ivan…
Nottingham Forest boss Steve Cooper defended his substitutions after their 2-2 draw with Luton. Cooper made several changes with “It’s a real pity, because of the way we played up until their first goal went in and the way the game has ended,” he later said. “It had been a comfortable game for us, in terms of the scoreline and the actual general play. “We had to make some changes. A couple of players told us they were flagging a little bit, so we had to make that change. We had to make some changes. A couple of players told…
