The Story in 60 Seconds

Nottingham Forest head coach Oliver Glasner faces mounting pressure following another round of dropped points that leaves the club sitting second-bottom in the Premier League. Forest have secured just one victory in nine league games since Glasner's arrival in the summer, earning only a single point from their last five matches ahead of an upcoming clash with Manchester City.

BBC Sport's Jonty Colman highlights a stark attacking inefficiency, noting Forest average 16.9 shots per game—second only to Manchester United—yet remain the league's lowest scorers with six goals. In their latest match, Forest generated 15 shots but registered just one attempt on target from James McAtee in the 78th minute.
