Oliver Glasner, Nottingham Forest head coach, expressed anger and a desire for change after a 2-0 loss at Brentford left the club in the relegation zone. Forest, the Premier League's lowest scorers with six goals from nine games, have booed off their team. Glasner stated he has made too many compromises with the squad since the season began.
He took responsibility for the poor form but pointed to a troubling pattern of getting into relegation trouble in recent seasons. He emphasized that Forest needs to change from top to bottom to break this cycle. Glasner revealed he refused a player's request to return to Nottingham from London after the game, banging the table in dismay.
He stated he is not at Forest to be loved after hugging players too much after defeats. Glasner warned that if the players do not buy into his changes, a sixth manager in just over a year will be sought. He vowed to change things, declaring it is now time for a new direction at the club.
