Vítor Pereira, who recently left Wolves and previously worked under Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis at Olympiacos, has agreed terms in principle to become the club's fourth head coach this season. The move follows Dyche's 114-day stint ending after Wednesday's goalless home draw against Wolves, despite Forest dominating with 63% possession and an xG of 2.75. Sitting 17th with 27 points from 26 games, three clear of relegation, Forest make history as the first Premier League side with four permanent managers in one campaign—drawing sharp criticism from pundits like Henry Winter, who called it 'Utter Work Nonsense,' and fans labeling it comical.

Newcastle United beat Tottenham 2-1 on Tuesday, with Malick Thiaw scoring in first-half stoppage time and Jacob Ramsey netting the winner in the 68th minute from Gordon's cutback. Eddie Howe's decision to start Gordon centrally—leaving £124 million signings Yoane Wissa and Nick Woltemade on the bench—drew pre-match criticism over Gordon's lack of striker goals and poor record starting there, but it fueled a dominant first half with nine corners. Ramsey called his first Magpies goal 'pure emotion,' while Howe praised Gordon's pressing and pace for giving the team a fluid, aggressive edge amid their striker struggles.

Key Takeaway

Anthony Gordon lined up through the middle with no traditional striker, a gamble that had fans debating fiercely before kickoff. It paid off as Newcastle snapped their five-match winless run.
