Nottingham Forest has adopted a unique style of play, achieving impressive results with less than 40% average ball possession this season. Following a surprising 2-1 victory over Tottenham, the team currently sits third in the Premier League, defying odds against relegation from the previous season. Manager Nuno Espirito Santo emphasized their clear identity and competitive spirit. Should they secure a top-four finish, they would become the first team in Premier League history to do so with such low possession statistics, following in the footsteps of previous underdog successes like Leicester City.
"We have a clear way to play and when we found ourselves in our identity... We've been able this season to compete well and fight for every ball."
"Should Nottingham Forest finish in the top four with their current average possession statistics, they will become the first team to do so with such a low figure."
