Nottingham Forest 3-1 Man City: Player Ratings as Maresca’s Crisis Deepens

Manchester City fell to a 3-1 defeat against Nottingham Forest at the City Ground, marking their third consecutive loss in the Premier League. Jair Cunha opened the scoring for Forest early, followed by a brace from former City academy striker Liam Delap. Rayan Cherki scored City's solitary goal in the 52nd minute before Delap sealed the victory for Oliver Glasner's side.

The defeat compounds pressure on City manager Enzo Maresca, who criticized his squad's lack of physical intensity and inability to win duels during the match. The result secured Forest their first home league victory of the campaign while leaving City six points behind league leaders Arsenal.
