Nottingham Forest have a bigger problem than Oliver Glasner, the Brentford defeat exposed it again

The article argues that Nottingham Forest's primary issue under manager Oliver Glasner is a severe goal-conversion crisis rather than tactical setup. Despite losing four of their last five Premier League matches, including a recent 2-0 defeat to Brentford, underlying statistics show Forest regularly control games and create quality chances, having registered a higher expected goals tally than opponents in seven of nine matches.

The writer notes that missed opportunities from Ryan Yates and James McAtee against Brentford highlighted this recurring finishing flaw. The piece also raises concerns over an excessive attacking reliance on Morgan Gibbs-White, suggesting Forest will continue to struggle unless their inability to capitalize on chances is resolved.
