    We reported over the weekend that it is understood Nottingham Forest will consider Sean Dyche as a replacement for Ange Postecoglou should they decide to part with their under-pressure head coach.

    Dyche has been out of work since leaving Everton in January, lives relatively close to Nottingham and was a youth player at Forest at the start of his career.

    Forest will not be required to pay any compensation should they move for Dyche, and that could be a factor in the club's choice of any replacement.

    So, what do you think will happen next? Will Postecoglou be given time to turn things around, or are his Forest days numbered? If they are, is Dyche a suitable replacement, or is there someone else you would like to see in the dugout?

The framed artwork depicts a scenic landscape with trees, water, and possibly some buildings in the distance.

    Nottingham Forest's chief football officer Ross Wilson is set to become Newcastle's new sporting director.

    A deal has been agreed for Wilson to move to St James' Park to replace Paul Mitchell.

    The former Tottenham sporting director lasted less than 12 months with the Magpies having replaced Dan Ashworth.

    There was also interest from Newcastle in former Arsenal assistant sporting director Jason Ayto, who has since joined Brighton.

    Wilson also has a close relationship with Newcastle boss Eddie Howe.

    The 41-year-old joined Forest in 2023, replacing Filippo Giraldi, and has helped the club into Europe for the first time in 30 years.

    Under Wilson, Forest broke their transfer record several times, with Omari Hutchinson's £37.5m move from Ipswich this summer their current record.

    Wilson also oversaw big outgoings, with Anthony Elanga joining Newcastle in a record sale worth £60m this summer - Forest having signed him for £15m in 2023 - while Brennan Johnson was sold to Tottenham in a deal worth over £45m.

    Wilson was previously sporting director at Rangers and director of football operations at Southampton.

    Nottingham Forest's Elliot Anderson is another beneficiary of Thomas Tuchel's willingness to look outside the usual inner circle of England stars, producing a third successive top-class display in Thursday's 3-0 friendly win over Wales.

    He is used to being at the heart of the action for Forest where, according to Opta, he has completed the most passes in the opposition half (244) and won possession most (47) in the Premier League this season.

    Against Wales, Anderson's constant demands for the ball and his ability to keep England ticking over were hallmarks of his quality. He played 77 passes, 74 successfully, created two chances and regained possession six times.

    Tuchel added: "Morgan [Rogers] and Elliot are humble players and very talented and that is a very good mix."

    The German can now move forward from a position of strength, even stronger than after the win in Serbia, to the World Cup qualifier in Latvia on Tuesday.

    And it will deliver a sharp reminder to Jude Bellingham and others that Tuchel is determined to tread his own path towards next summer's World Cup - with or without the Real Madrid midfielder.
