The Championship playoff final remains the richest game in world football, and the favourites to win it this year are Nottingham Forest. A European giant with as many continental crowns as Chelsea and Juventus, Forest have bene out of the Premier League for 23 years, but under Steve Cooper, they’re a team reborn, making stars of Tottenham-linked Djed Spence, Manchester United loanee James Garner, and Brennan Johnson to rise from the edge of relegation to rival Fulham and Bournemouth for automatic promotion. On today’s FD Explained, we look at Cooper’s impact, and his work developing stars like Foden, Sancho, and Smith Rowe to see how he’s got Forest flying again.

“Dying club” isn’t the right phrase to use, just a club who had poor owners and became a well established championship club
Na. U where dying
“But do the stats back it up?” - Football Daily
Mate, it's Football Daily. They're basically the RUclips equivalent of Talksport.
Premier league club now! Congrats if you’re a fan, glad to see you back
The reds are goin up
I'm from Turkey. And I am a fan of Forest. I want forest in the premier league the place where they deserves to be. I watched the match against Bournemouth. We deserved the match but officials were crap. It doesn't matter we will beat the play-offs. Don't forget we have 2 champions league!
We did it boys!
Canadian here who is also a Forest fan! We sure did do it!
How do a turk and canadian become forest fans? just curious.
@@learnedeldersofteemo8917 Well I can’t answer for the Turk, lol, but my dad is from Nottingham. So he raised me to be a Forest fan.
@@safeysmith6720 aaah I'm doing the same for my kid, I moved out of Nottm/UK and just got them there 1st kit, We have a decent Ice Hockey team too!
I remember seeing Johnson at Lincoln last season and thinking he was destined for the prem. Hopefully that comes true soon!
Woohoo!
it just happenbed
And he killed it 😁
Only improve with cooper, mgw and the rest around him
More championship content please! Love this
!!!
100%
super cooper
Knowing these hipsters expect Newcastle whitewashing.
Really wish to see them back in the premier league. Such a great team with a great history ❤️
Cheers man - mission accomplished!
I grant you your wish
Even after relegation under Clough in 1993 we got promoted then came 3rd in the Prem League in 1995. Scholar and Wray really broke the club after promising to spend big then forcing Dave Bassett to sell Campbell and Cooper after we'd got promoted and this led to the infamous Van Hooijdonk strike. Nigel Doughty rescued us from bankruptcy but despite twice making the play offs we were a poor side after that and shambolic under Fawaz's ownership. Amazing to see the turnaround under Cooper and hopefully we now have a long term owner and strategy.
Nigel Doughty spent a lot of time, and a small fortune, trying to resurrect the club that he loved, but to no avail. We've had some great managers at the club but also a fair share of terrible ones. David Platt helped to wreck the club and Billy Davies's ego did us no favours either. As for Chris Hughton I feel sure he'd send the players onto the field saying " Don't lose, don't lose". Whereas Cooper send them out saying "You can win this" I want to see Forest in the EPL but I hope we can keep the same players and bring in some additions who aren't just has-beens looking for a final big payday. Please let Steve Cooper have the final say on who comes and who goes.
@@febweb17 Cooper is too smart to accept a lot of has-beens, man. Hope we look more at loans and academy graduates. His reputation is awesome nurturing young talent, and for a reason: We are so lucky to have him! YOU REEEEDDDDDDDDSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!
@@febweb17 Yep, Platt spent a small fortune and was clueless, Davis was more interested in himself and making enemies. For me Megson was the worst manager among many, saw us lose 6-0 at Ipswich and it could've been 10!!
Who brought andres silenzi cause he was an utter donkey
Im wearing my forest kit while watching this
Any team who has TWO European Cup wins deserves to be in the Premier League!
Welcome back Forest, from a Liverpool fan.
Cheers mate. Hope we can have as good a game against your boys next season too!
@@LoscoeLad
Yes, I watched Forest quite a bit in the second half of the season, in the FA Cup and the Championship. They play an attractive game of football, and I’m sure they going to be good to watch next season. As I said, 23 years is way too long for a team like Forest to be out of the Premier League.
We’re a big club. Even when we were in League One, we were getting 20 odd thousand regularly at home.
FOREST will never die.
The fans are 2nd to none.
Born and raised in Nottingham YO REDS
YOU REDS
I have waited 23 years for this day but the job is not done yet. In all honesty, Forest was fortunate not to have lost SU in 90 mins. Against H, the boys must play better. COYR!
next year for sure. This year, I am scared they will be on a hiding from Carlo's Terriers and their superior high pressing footie
yeah, we were lucky last night too - but about time we were!
I love this team. I recognise the blueprint he is copying and the success the original had. I had always wondered what would happen if someone were to apply it to a Club and if it would create as quick a turn around and success... apparently so.
So, look forward to seeing where this goes and how much he continues to replicate. Wouldn't be surprised if get a lot of U21 loanees from Academies and might start playing out of the back next season.
Just can't get enough!
Had to change tactics this season but can see us only kicking on during the next season with our owners backing, the youth in the team and ofc King Cooper 🔴⚪️🌳
From Turkey, success to Nottingham Forest.
cheers mate
I’m Not even a fan but I’d like to see them back up
Cheers mate, good to feel the love from all around!
Nothing more annoying as a Swans fan than seeing yet another manager who we plucked from practically nowhere leave because all his players were being sold and he was being given maybe 10% of the funds to reinvest. And then he becomes a massive success elsewhere. Lets add Cooper to the list that contains Brendan Rogers, Graham Potter, Roberto Martinez and to a lesser extent Paulo Sousa and Michael Laudrup. I'm sure Russell Martin will be kicking ass for another team sooner rather than later.
If you want an exciting manager, just take him from Swansea.
@@jonahthrane812 Pretty much. And all it takes is a “can we have him?” And he’s yours. That also goes for any of our players 😂
@@SonnyK248 but I think what makes some of these managers so great is they are forced to learn to use what they have at Swansea, on a shoe string, so when they finally have more money, they do very well.
@@jonahthrane812 For a little Championship team, Swansea do have a pretty solid identity. Ever since Martinez got the job in the mid 2000's and gave the team a continental possession based style and every guy who came after had to just keep that wheel turning. And most of those guys weren't playing that way before they arrived. Rogers' mentor when he was a coach at Chelsea was Jose Mourinho. He got the Reading job on his recommendation and got fired a few months later. Then he comes to us and two years later he's the Liverpool manager. and the two front runners for that job were Rogers and Martinez. I think managers just come in and learn the Swansea playbook and take it to a bigger team with way more ambition and thrive.
winning the U-17s world cup was 'from nowehere'? certainly true you shouldn't have let him go, but he already had a good reputation, now through the roof! Thanks, we love him to bits!
Forest are now in the Play Offs final, 1 game away from the Promised Land
Boom town!
I hope they get promoted
Me too and I’m not even a Forrest fan
Not a forest fan but it would be great to see them back in the prem
I am not a Forrest fan either…but having them back would be great
Why everybody uses 2 r it's forest
Why?
Cooper is exactly what Man Utd need - thank God they are too clueless to realise... really hope we smash those lot next season: WE ARE BACK!
Whatever duck
Been a Forest fan since I was 4 years old,sung myself hoarse in Trent End many many times,now I'm 51 and we are back in the top flight after 23 years of hurt.
Enjoy it fella. As a Coventry city fan I hope to see cov back in the big time one day.
@@luisnotsosuarez6436 best of luck!
Congratulations
one win away from the prem come on forest we have got this far come on king cooper trooper lets have it like the song just one more time
Cloughie: "that performance beating Malmö 1-0 was crap! You'd better do better in next years European Cup final or you"ll all be getting my boot up the backside, now get out of my sight and get drunk together, and if anyone leaves the bar before closing time I"ll know about it and I"ll sell you to Barnsley next week! Now sod off and get drunk you lazy sods!" 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I'd rather he was Manager of England than Southgate, and I'm a Villa fan! Never rated Southgate! Winners should be given England job, as Cloughie should have been! Nothing worse than FA business suits running football with YES men! 👍🙏😎
Cooper, the new Clough ?
my club since in the womb ❤️
Junior red at 2 weeks old 😂💪🔴⚪
Nottingham forest are the best team
The European giant is back!
If Garner has to go back to United, ask if you can loan Mainoo.
Forest are one of the great historical clubs in English football, hopefully they get promoted and some rich generous owner sees their history and potential and buys them.
Nottingham Forrest should have been bought not Man City. Even Newcastle deserve it more than Man City they were a nothing club.
Both of you are wrong
We have a rich and generous owner in place right now. I am sure if we get promoted he will use his vast wealth to strengthen our squad. A huge Thank You to the Marinakis Family for running our club in such a professional manner since they arrived. It really makes the world of difference to us fans knowing the club is in good hands.
@@Andyontherocks a legendary club like Forrest should never have been mishandled like that in the first place. Hopefully at the end of month you’re celebrating a return to the prem
We’re an attractive club: big, history, great fanbase, iconic…
The only club in europe that have more champions league cups than league titles ….
Champions League Cups? The only reason the Terriers don't yet have any Champions League Cups or European Cups, which is what you have, is that when we were winning the league three times in a row the competition didn't exist
Let’s go reds!! Love from Piraeus!
Love to see them promoted, but their number's suggest if they do, they'll finish rock bottom.
Lol when I played career mode in FIFA they got promoted and, like you said, finished the season with 20 points
ngl better to go up and go down fighting with the tv money and parachute payments than be a half decent team in the 2nd tier like we've been doing for ages
@@dagothher honestly, Forest being a yo-yo club right now might be the best thing for you, then you can go down one last time, go up again and stay up comfortably
Thats what we said about brentford
It’s not a FIFA video game saddos like playing. If this club go up they’ll sign more quality and stay up comfortably
lads after what happend yesterday please can we have a look at my club bristol rovers crazy season.....please....
Brilliant this, wish you would cover more in the Championship.
Djed Spence is a Boro player and was a talented player before forest loaned him from us
stepped up since then, though, cheers
FA Youth Cup Finalists too. Youth manager is Warren Joyce, ex-Man United Reserve manager. Him and Cooper are an impressive team.
Not a dying club, just became a constant champ side
To be honest I’m a Manchester United fan and our product James Garner was absolutely outstanding all year for Nottingham Forest. Truly was hoping Forest get promoted to the Premier League as well as they have a great manager in Cooper. I might start a career mode in Fifa 23 with Forest!
Go forest go!
Marinakis miracle
Been loving all these explained vids past few weeks, keep up the great content lads
Steve cooper could sleep with my mrs and I’d shake his hand. What he’s done at forest is nothing short of a miracle, promotion or not he’s helped us get our soul back and that’s what football is all about
Lol how would you describe King Cooper now?
🔴⚪️🌳
@@martzp5535 he could burn my house down and I’d thank him because it’s probably for the greater good and will benefit me in the long run
Worryingly with expiring deals and loans, this could be a make or break season
We go up this season we get money to sign the players we need on loan also pretty much same team with Steve copper as Chris euton so if he stays well he fine
Honestly i think we've mostly just got lucky and landed in the right Manager and sporting director at the Same time
Well said mark cooke
Look out Premiership. The Big Red Machine is back!
They have a young team and may surprise a few in PL assuming they beat Huddersfield 👍
Done!
Very insightful 👍
Also. The club did what they didn’t do last time we had a promotion push.. back the manager in January. The January signings have been unbelievable. Also turning down 18 million for Johnson was massive.. if fawaz still owned the club he would have drove Brennan down to Brentford himself!
Steve Cooper has just ended chi’s houghtons career
This is all good. But Forest needs to keep up with the good work if they want to stay being a good team. How will the roster look like next season? Is there enough financial strenght to boost up the squad? The players on loan, who have contributed a LOT to this team will all leave. I d love if Forest can keep Spence, Lowe, Davies and possibly Zinkernagel and make them their own. But how much would that cost? 50 millions? I don´t see the owners spending 50, 60 millions plus on players, even if the team gets a promotion.
We will recruit smart and many youngsters. Loan deals, buyback clause based deals, basically a feeder club for Europe. Youngsters from Belgium, France, Germany, Scotland, Ireland, Wales and England will get chances. This is the future.
the owner will have plenty of money to spend - you are severely limited how much you can spend in the Championship because of financial fair play rules, which gives such a massive advantage to those with parachute payments. When he first arrived, he broke the transfer record, so I don't think they'll go up and do a Burnley
Roster?! 180million for going up... really hoping we get a lot of it to keep a few of the boys for sure, though priority is probably a new contract for Super Cooper!
Forest and Oldham are two clubs I'd like to see return to the Premiership
I want Ipswich and Sheffield WED to return
Loving the explained series lads
Great to have Forrest back
I am from Ireland, I am a Forest fan. He took over bottom of the table team and got us promoted. On to our 3rd Champions League victory in 4 years if we keep Cooper. What a logical humble inspiration at our club after years of Chaos. The best since Old Big 'Ed.
A very well presented and explained video to a none Forrest fan. Good Shot!
And now they just get Navas wtf
With other words, they were incredibly lucky.
Of course Steve Cooper has his praize in Nott's campaign, but he is not the mastermind behind the "resurrection". From a management point of view, Dean Murphy, the CEO is the one who deserves all the commendations.
all? Behave!
If I could liken us to any team, it would be chelsea, but able to play with less possesion
I sort of hope they get promoted, then relegated again, their stats suggest they'll do poorly in the Prem. But I don't want them relegated because I dislike them, really it's because even the lowest team in the Prem gets a bunch of money, more than winning the championship. So with that money, they should hopefully keep all the players they want to keep, and sign new exciting youngsters to help grow in the championship, and after a year of development, get more ready for the Prem. The parachute payments as they are called, could be instrumental if used properly.
well they played 3 prem clubs this season, Arsenal, Liverpool and Leicester. Won 2 of those and lost 1-0 to Liverpool
@@jacobta1 and we could/ should have beat the Scallies, too! YOU REDDDDDDSS!
We will pass on the parachute payments thanks.....let's hope we push on next season now 😁
🔴⚪️🌳
Wow I’m so early lol
Very good
And they've just bottled 3rd spot after scoring in the 92nd.... and conceding 2 mins later.. :(
Not really bottled from where we was and what was expected, he rested 7 starters as well
@@martzp5535 I suppose, but lutonwould have been I much preferable match-up the SHU. Players probably thought they had won and switched off defensively
Tbf you're right, but it's now a lottery it's whoever shows up on the day, hopefully that's us 💪🔴⚪
Stoke is the oldest in the EFL mate 1863.
EFL confirmed it’s Forest.
Stoke formed before Forest, but not under the name of Stoke City. Nottingham Forest have always been Forest.
Incorrect.
No actual evidence Stoke played football any earlier than 1868.
@@AH-be6bu someone played football in stoke 2,000 years ago, too.. doesn't make them stoke city. YOU RRREEEDDDDDDDDDDSSSSSSSSSS!
As recently as 1980, yeah just the 42 years ago 🤣
Still couldn't beat the mighty chez 🤣🤣 UTCIAD
Not the oldest, Stoke were founded in 1863
That’s disputed mate
Stoke.....not Stoke City.
Shame t'was all for naught, after the Terriers swept aside the Trees, to return to the PL
I want Brennan at Milan, would be elite with us
why would he leave his boyhood club in the world's best league to play in Italy? the only excitement there would be off the pitch!
@@LoscoeLad see Mark, at the time I commented it wasn’t confirmed he’ll be going to the Premier League with Forest. But now he is so it’s not possible to get him. Also playing in Italy is one thing, but playing with a massive club like Milan would surely be an appealing opportunity to take?
All of a sudden everyone’s a forest fan, won’t go up anyway 😂😂
Huddersfield
Not all,... some Terriers still dreaming of a return to the PL and another chance of spot in Europe, or adding to our three league titles to date.
This didn’t age well bud
Oh really, Brown mouth boy. Almost prophetic.. Almost! Kok. YOU REEDDDDDDDSSSSS!
Did you mention the loan players? Credit to him for getting Garner, Lowe, Zinckernagel and Davis, but he won't be able to hang on to them. He is also set to lose Johnson and Spence
We won't lose Johnson if we get promoted. It's very rare promoted teams lose their best players as other Prem teams would rather wait a year to see how they handle the league before fishing out. Brentford kept Toney, for instance. Norwich only sold Buendia because it's part of their financial strategy to cash in and he had already had a successful Prem season. It's also very realistic we could sign Davis and Zinckernagel on a permanent basis. Lowe has barely played this season, he's not integral to the side. Although we would definitely need to sign a left wingback, every promoted team needs to strengthen. Re-signing Garner for another season long loan isn't outside the realms of possibility either, as Man Utd will want him to get more Prem experience and he is happy at Forest. Will probably come down to whether Ten Hag thinks he's ready for their first-team or not. If not, we are likely to be first in line. Spence is the only one who we're fairly certain to lose, as signing him on a permanent basis from Middlesbrough is the only option and it's likely bigger Prem teams with deeper pockets will also be in for him.
@@PrehistoricPro Unless they get an offer they can't refuse. Newcastle have been reported as interested; also Palace, Brentford, Leicester. Anyway, it's still 50/50 whether they get promotion.
@@fatbelly27 As if he's gonna go to an average Prem team like Palace, Brentford, or Leicester if they get promoted! 😂 They're all well run clubs who don't over pay for players either. Not really the types of teams to make irresistible offers. Newcastle are the only one of those who could/would pay silly money but they've been linked with everyone and he's unlikely to be top of their list with the funds they have.
Of course it's no guarantee that they get promoted, but we're talking about 'if' they do? Do you understand what 'if' means?
A lot of people including most bookmakers have been saying that Forest are favourites to win promotion to the Premier League through the EFL Championship playoffs but I have my doubts.
Please don't get me wrong, I think that Steve Cooper has done very well to get them into 4th place and a guaranteed shot of going up.
But I remember his time at the helm of Swansea City and at least two occasions he got them into the playoffs I think, and on each occasion he couldn't quite get the ball over the line, a lot of huffing and puffing but no end result.
Of course it could well have been sheer bad luck, but another issue could be is that he's just not able to deal with that kind of pressure.
I would like to see Nottingham Forest return to the Premier League I really would but I have some reservations. Plus Sheffield United are a helluva outfit to be facing right now.
Huddersfield Town would be my other personal choice If Forest cannot do it.
2-1 away from home just now should’ve been 2-0 and could’ve easily been about 6-0
He had an average squad at swansea an one of the lowest budgets in the league…Forest have a good squad with owners willing to back him
same here,.. Hudds. are well known as the play-off specialists, plus there's the chance to stick it to Leeds next season, so they have the motivation.
Sorry, but i really want Luton to be promoted instead Nottingham.
Any reason why? (Not a Nottingham fan btw)
@@Strawberry-IJ I'm also not a Luton fan, but it's always happy to see new team promote to Premier League, especially small club like Luton.
Same. But because I am a Leicester fan (battered us 4-1 in the fa cup, an important match as we're part of the east midlands derby) Also because they're not Sheffield United and Huddersfield as they've been in the prem before.
@@mendozerosu3041 we’ve been in the prem we were the best club in the world for a few years
Well that ain't happening....
Credit to him for getting Garner, Lowe, Zinckernagel and Davis, but he won't be able to hang on to them. He is also set to lose Johnson and Spence
