If, like us, you’ve been distracted by the World Cup, you may have forgotten some of the big plot-lines in the Premier League.
One of those was what would happen to Oliver Glasner, who had really impressed as a coach but missed out on the Chelsea, Spurs, Liverpool, Man U and Man City jobs this summer.
There were a few options on the table, especially in Europe. But nobody was expecting Nottingham Forest to be one of them. They had a manager – Vitor Pereira did a great job there in the second half of the season stabilising them and keeping them clear of relegation.

But the Tricky Trees have now sacked him, in a truly surprising mid-summer move, and appointed Glasner to replace him.
It’s a savage move from a famously ruthless owner. Glasner does have a bigger reputation than Pereira, but it’s come from left field.
Pereira will be fine, however. If he doesn’t get a job right away, he will surely snag a spot with the first team to sack a coach in relegation trouble next season.
