Sean Dyche must drop Morgan Gibbs-White after his latest poor performance for Nottingham Forest against Sturm Graz.

Nottingham Forest, the Tricky Trees as they are known to their fans, are starting to show shoots of revival. Sean Dyche picked up his second win in five games - after Ange Postecoglou's none in eight - though he will be thankful they faced a very poor Leeds United to get off the mark in the Premier League.

Sean Dyche has provided an injury update on England midfielder Elliot Anderson after the goalless draw vs Sturm Graz.

Ruben Amorim has said that Sean Dyche was correct when he stated Manchester United would win more games with him in charge playing 4-4-2.

On a frustrating night in Austria, Sean Dyche will have seen two things underlined: the intrinsic importance of the ‘hardcore’ of senior players in his Nottingham Forest squad — and that he had forged an accurate early impression of those on the periphery of it.

Over four decades ago, Brian Clough’s Nottingham Forest departed Graz after another famous night in their storied European history.

Nottingham Forest aim to continue from their victory over Porto last time out in Europe as they travel to Austria to face Sturm Graz, who sit in the bottom end of the Europa League table. Sean Dyche’s first game in charge of Nottingham Forest came in the form of a comfortable 2-0 victory over Porto at the City Ground and it was a result where the relief was palpable around the ground.

Bundesliga side VfB Stuttgart have joined the race to sign Nottingham Forest striker Arnaud Kalimuendo in the January transfer window, according to reports.
