Nottingham Forest have surpassed expectations so far this season in the Premier League, which has led to one presenter in particular making a U-turn on his prediction.
Nuno Espirito Santo is building a very competitive squad at Nottingham Forest after making 11 signings in the summer transfer window.
Elliot Anderson and Nikola Milenkovic are the two who have made arguably the biggest impact.
Former Newcastle star Anderson has already left Jason Lee seriously impressed, whilst Milenkovic has already gotten the approval of Nuno.
This has led to an inspired start to the season, which sees the Reds sit in tenth position.
One TalkSPORT presenter in particular has been eating humble pie due to this.
Sam Matterface changes his mind about Nottingham Forest
There’s something nice about proving people wrong, and that’s exactly what Nottingham Forest are doing right now, with a number of pundits and presenters coming out to admit their mistakes.
Sam Matterface is the latest to eat his words about Nottingham Forest, as he originally thought they’d be a relegation candidate.
Speaking on the Premier League All Access podcast, the TalkSPORT presenter had this to say in response to Alex Crook, who stated that they both had Nottingham Forest as relegation candidates.
“Why do you keep bringing that up? We’ve made a mistake, alright.”
Where can Nottingham Forest go from here?
Nottingham Forest have the chance to replicate Nuno Espirito Santo’s success from his time at Wolves by challenging for a European place.
It would be quite the spectacle to bring European football back to the City Ground.
It’s been claimed that Forest are already underway with their January transfer plans, with Evangelos Marinakis wasting no time.
After all, Marinakis’ dream of achieving a place in Europe is now closer than it’s been in a long time.
