English Premier League 2025/26 Season Discussion

Greatest Footy league in the world.

2 weeks ago Man U sacked their coach and Arsenal were cruising to a title.

Today, Man U above Liverpool and in top 4, while Arsenal reducing their lead to a measly 4 points.
 
My predictions for weekend fixtures:

Leeds vs Arsenal (0-4)
Liverpool vs Newcastle (2-2)
Utd vs Fulham (1-2)
Spurs vs City (2-1)

Think the Nottingham forest owner is probably crazy. And think he acts pretty rude. But I do respect him a bit. Nottingham forest isn’t a big club (at least not for decades). And yet the owner still is wanting them to compete amongst the best playing a style of football to challenge for the title. Yes a bit unrealistic given the size of club and funds.

Dyche has been sacked for that reason. I think that also explains frustrations with Nuno. It is the smart logical thing to play in that style given the circumstances.

Then again not sure why he appointed dyche in the first place. Maybe he expected dyche to switch tactics after he’d carried nott forest to safety.

Tbf NF have a very good squad , they should be top 10 not fighting for survival . He expected Dyke to win more points . They won’t get a Clough again but deserve better than Dyche
 
Pereira signs deal as Forest boss until end of next season

Vitor Pereira has signed a deal until the end of next season to become Nottingham Forest's fourth manager of the campaign and help them avoid relegation from the Premier League.

The 57-year-old takes over at the City Ground from Sean Dyche, who was sacked early on Thursday morning.

Forest are yet to officially announce the Portuguese's appointment, but he is set to return for another spell in English football, having been axed by Wolves in November after 11 months in charge.

The Tricky Trees are 17th in the Premier League, three points above the drop zone, after two wins in their last 10 games.

Pereira follows Nuno Espirito Santo, Ange Postecoglou and Dyche as Forest manager since September.

They sacked Dyche after being held to a disappointing goalless draw by bottom club Wolves on Wednesday.

Pereira, who won 14 of his 38 games in charge of Wolves and helped them stay up last season, quickly emerged as the preferred replacement, having worked previously under Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis at Greek club Olympiacos.

He won the title and Greek Cup in 2014-15 in his six months in charge, before leaving for Fenerbahce.

Pereira joined Wolves in December 2024, but was sacked three months ago with the club on two points from their first 10 league matches.

He started his managerial career with Portuguese club Sanjoanense in 2004 and, following spells in Germany, China, Brazil and Saudi Arabia, he is set to embark on his 15th role.
