Jesse Marsch has explained which four Nottingham Forest players really impressed him during the win over West Ham on Saturday.
The man sacked by Leeds last season was a guest on Monday Night Football last night.
So, what has Marsch said about Forest and which players impressed him at the weekend? Let’s take a closer look…
Jesse Marsch impressed by four Nottingham Forest players
Well, it’s no surprise that after a 2-0 win – which could have been more – Marsch has given praise to the club’s attacking outlet during the match.
Taiwo Awoniyi and Morgan Gibbs-White played as the striker and the number 10 respectively, with Anthony Elanga and Callum Hudson-Odoi on either side.
The Reds looked lively throughout the contest and in fairness, they never gave West Ham an inch throughout the victory.
Marsch was impressed with a number of players and believes that four will help the team pick up more results.
He told Monday Night Football: “When you look at the front four players for Forest against West Ham, they were good. They were really good.
“They were sharp and they were confident. That alone can help boost your team to get a few more results.”
Marsch raves about Nuno Espirito Santo’s firepower
Going forward, Forest have no problems when it comes to scoring goals – with the problem keeping them out at the other end.
However, on Saturday the team managed to score two more goals and also help themselves to a much-needed clean sheet.
If Forest can keep their current front four fit and firing for the remainder of the season, things could seriously improve.
On Saturday, Gio Reyna didn’t even get off the bench – whilst there is still Chris Wood to come back into the fold when he returns from injury.
Marsch was right to praise the firepower on offer at Forest and hopefully, the Reds can keep finding the way to goal.
