Nottingham Forest head coach Oliver Glasner warns he will be the sixth manager in just over a year if results do not improve. Since the start of last season, Forest have cycled through five different managers, with Glasner now under pressure to steady the ship. After a 2-0 loss at Brentford, Forest sit 19th in the Premier League with just six points from nine games.
Glasner admitted feeling he had made too many compromises and stressed the need for a clear way forward. He warned that if players do not follow his instructions, the club will look to bring in a new manager. Forest have failed to win five of their opening nine league matches, leaving them just a point above the relegation zone heading into a clash with leaders Manchester City.
Despite the poor run, Glasner noted the team has been unlucky in some close games, though he emphasized defensive mistakes and a lack of ruthlessness in finishing as key issues. The Austrian manager, who left Crystal Palace after a successful spell, acknowledged the club's ambition in hiring him but stressed that changes are needed immediately to avoid a sixth managerial shuffle.
