⚽ Nottm Forest predictions 2022-23: Lingard can be the signing that makes all the difference
When manager Steve Cooper took over the club last September, Forest were bottom of the Championship. Their rise, beginning almost immediately and culminating in the play-off final victory over Huddersfield Town at Wembley in May, has guaranteed that Cooper is the most popular manager in these parts since Brian Clough.
Forest’s style may well help them after promotion. They averaged exactly 50 per cent possession in the Championship, while Bournemouth and Fulham ranked in the top two. Teams that dominated possession but must get used to having considerably less in the Premier League can struggle, but Cooper has built Forest to be effective on the counter attack and they will probably stay true to that ideal this season.
There might also be an issue with scoring goals. While Fulham have Aleksandar Mitrovic and Bournemouth have Dominic Solanke, Forest did not have a natural centre-forward. Johnson was last season’s top scorer from wide right, Lewis Grabban has left and Yates, a defensive midfielder, was their third-highest league goalscorer. Taiwo Awoniyi has arrived from Union Berlin for a club-record fee, but that is nothing more than a calculated gamble.
