BBC Football Writer Praises Nottingham Forest’s Performance

During a Q&A session held on Monday, BBC chief football writer Phil McNulty addressed a question regarding Nottingham Forest’s recent achievements. A participant identified as Kevin submitted the following query: “Hi Phil, amid a weekend of controversial VAR calls and late wins and equalisers, do you think the most underrated team at the moment is Nottingham Forest? A 3-1 East Midlands Derby win and up to seventh in the table with a fourth-place goalscorer in Chris Wood? I think they deserve so much more recognition for their achievements.” Phil McNulty responded to the question, stating: “Hi Neil. Fully agree. Nottingham Forest deserve great praise for that they have done so far this season, although I do think they have been getting credit – and what a season Chris Wood is having.” McNulty further elaborated that Nuno had “quietly put a Forest team together in exactly the way he likes,” characterized by a “solid defence, pace on the flanks and a central goal threat,” drawing a comparison to his previous work at Wolves. The writer also noted the consistently “special” atmosphere at the City Ground, suggesting it would intensify if Forest’s strong performance continues.
