also held discussions with Forest about the post,<\/a> while Fulham manager Marco Silva was also known to be admired by the club.<\/p>\n“A respected and experienced Premier League manager, Dyche brings the perfect blend of character, tactical acumen and proven achievement to guide the club through its next chapter,” said a Forest statement.<\/p>\n
“As a former Forest youth player who lives locally, Dyche also has a deep understanding of the values and pride of Forest and its supporters. <\/p>\n
“His appointment represents the best opportunity for a successful and competitive season across both domestic and European competitions.”<\/p>\n
Dyche’s coaching staff will include Ian Woan and Steven Stone, who both played for Nottingham Forest.<\/p>\n
“It’s a mess isn’t it?” said BBC Sport football pundit Chris Sutton on the Monday Night Club before Dyche’s appointment was confirmed. <\/p>\n
“If Dyche gets over the line it is an admission that they got it wrong with Ange Postecoglou and are thinking about survival.<\/p>\n
“Dyche has always managed clubs where it has been a struggle. He bucked the trend at Burnley and got the best out of the players he had and proved himself to be an extremely capable manager. <\/p>\n
“At Everton he took over a team in trouble and stabilised the club. He had points deductions to contend with.<\/p>\n
“Forest want to stay in the league so it seems a sensible appointment. They won’t go down, they have too many good players.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The process to appoint a new manager was led by Forest’s global head of football Edu Gaspar and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":229530,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[563],"tags":[64,63,596,85],"class_list":["post-229529","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-football","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-football","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/229529","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=229529"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/229529\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/229530"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=229529"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=229529"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=229529"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
