Nottingham Forest manager Nuno Espirito Santo told BBC's Match of the Day: "It was a big improvement. We reacted well from the previous game. There was a clear intention to bounce back and the boys did well.

"We controlled the game really well in the first half. We had goals, but also Tottenham created chances in the second half and we had to hold on to what we had.

"I don't believe it impacts us if we play before or after [our rivals]. The way we approach it is game by game.

"We've been able, this season, to compete well and fight for every ball. The boys did it.

"We have a big week ahead of us. We want to recover the players and we can enjoy this.

"If you look back at the first half, Tottenham created a lot of problems for us in wide areas. We had Matz [Sels] at a high level to keep us in the game. You have to remember we are playing quality players."

Forest's win at Spurs last night has convinced me they will land a top five spot.

I was a bit unsure as to whether the pressure would get to them or not but securing those vital three points despite playing last has shown they're here to stay.

Nottingham Forest boosted their Champions League hopes as an impressive victory against Tottenham moved them back up to third in the Premier League.

The visitors started the day sixth but were in a determined mood from the outset at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium to get the result that would see them climb back up the table.

They took just five minutes to open the scoring when Elliot Anderson's thunderous volley deflected off Rodrigo Bentancur to fly into the back of the net.

Spurs' poor league form this term has been well documented and despite winning at Eintracht Frankfurt last Thursday to reach the Europa League semi-finals, they failed to carry that momentum into this game.

Third to seventh in the Premier League table is just incredible, isn't it?

With the title race and the relegation spots pretty much all sorted, the race for Europe is keeping us entertained going into the final weeks.

It's going down to the wire, isn't it?

The race for the Champions League is as tight as ever with five teams scrapping it out for three remaining places.

Nottingham Forest moved back up to third last night with a fine 2-1 win at Spurs as Man City, Chelsea and Aston Villa all picked up three points last time out.

Dave: Hi Phil, hope you had a good Easter, what would say needs to happen to make Chelsea season a success, Top five finish? Uefa Conference League trophy or both? Do you think they are in a better place now than a year ago? Thanks.

Hello, Dave. And you, too.

Chelsea is a really strange one. I actually thought they might be title contenders around November/December when they were looking so good and Cole Palmer was in such great form.

Since then it has all gone very flat, with Chelsea fans clearly having reservations about Enzo Maresca’s style.

Obviously, winning a trophy is always success – and Chelsea should win the Europa Conference League - but I do believe their season will only be viewed as a success through the prism of Champions League qualification.

For a club of Chelsea’s stature and ambition, qualifying for the Champions League is actually more important than winning the Conference League.

Before we get into the nitty-gritty of the race for the Champions League, let's hear your thoughts on it.

Who do you think the top five will be come the end of play on 25 May?

Use the contact details above. GO!

So far today we have been looking extensively at Leeds and Burnley's promotion into the Premier League. Within that we have looked at the finances behind their transfer windows, what they need to do to stay up and what other previously promoted clubs have done to maintain their top-flight spot.

Phil McNulty has also been answering your questions around that topic as well as other Premier League topics like the race for Champions League spots.

The Champions League places will go to the top five clubs in England's top-flight which currently stands as Liverpool, Arsenal, Nottingham Forest, Newcastle and Manchester City.

But other clubs like Chelsea and Aston Villa are hunting down the spots with six games of the league to go.

This afternoon we will dive into the race a bit more and have a look at Nottingham Forest's game against Tottenham from last night. So stick around and keep the questions for Phil coming.

Well, the answer to that would be yes and no.

According to Transfermarkt, Nottingham Forest shelled out 165.05m euros on summer transfers, which would now be equivalent to £141.9m, in the season after winning promotion.

That's considerably more than last season's promoted sides, but it did come at a cost.

The club ended up being punished for breaking PSR rules and suffered a four-point deduction in the 2023-24 season that ensured they faced a nervous battle to avoid relegation.

Some of the discussion after Burnley and Leeds United were promoted on Monday has been focused on how much they will have to spend this summer to compete in the Premier League this season.

Here's how much the three promoted sides this season - Leicester, Ipswich and Southampton - spent in the 2024 summer transfer window, according to Transfermarkt.

• Leicester City: 88.05m euros (£75.4m)
• Ipswich Town: 126.49m euros (108.6m)
• Southampton: 117.15m euros (£100.8m)

As we told you earlier, winning promotion from the Championship does not have to come with a return ticket.

Nottingham Forest, Fulham and Bournemouth were all promoted into the Premier League for the 2022-23 season. All three clubs are still in the top flight.

In their first season back in the Premier League, Nottingham Forest finished 16th, Bournemouth were 15th and Fulham were 10th.

The following season Nottingham Forest were again involved in the relegation battle and finished just outside it in 17th. Fulham finished 13th and Bournemouth were 12th.

In the current season, Nottingham Forest have seen a remarkable turnaround and are currently in third place, while Bournemouth are sitting in eighth and Fulham in ninth.

While some of you were seeing off the Easter long weekend last night, getting ready for work or school, it was anything but tame for Leeds season-ticket holder Kris Smith.

"My voice is a bit hoarse but that's just natural really," he tells Newsbeat as we cover the promotion a day after the night before.

"I was going absolutely berserk at the fact we blew Stoke away. I wasn't expecting 6-0. My voice got even worse celebrating Josh Brownhill scoring twice.

"I never thought I'd see the day where I'd be celebrating two Burnley goals but there we are - it gets us promoted."

It's looking like all three of the teams that were promoted to the Premier League last season are going to drop back to the Championship, so what does Kris make of that?

"I am quite nervous because the gap is so huge and the only way to bridge it is to spend an awful lot of money. Your coaching's got to be good as well so there might be question marks over (Daniel) Farke.

"Those are questions for down the road. I'm trying not to think about it - I'm trying to enjoy the promotion to be honest."

Sean: Hi Phil, Leeds United fan here. If we continue to pontificate on gulf between PL and Championship, do we need to consider scrapping play-offs? Teams winning the lottery of the play-off is a month behind in recruitment, more games after close of season. Simply all over loss of time they can ill afford. Sheffield United over the season have earned the right to be promoted, as Leeds should have last year.

Hello, Sean. Congratulations on being back in the Premier League.

I absolutely get the frustrations of teams who finish third, sometimes comfortably, then miss out on promotion through the play-offs, but the format is known before the start of the season and they have to live with it.

And the play-offs often provide sensational drama and real money-spinning games. They are here to stay.

Leeds United's Joel Piroe, who scored four against Stoke City yesterday to take his league tally to 19 goals this season, told the BBC his is targeting the Championship Golden Boot: "I always wanted it. I said it from the start of the season, one of my targets personally is to get to 20 goals and I am very close now. I still have to keep scoring."

And on being a Premier League player next season: "It doesn't feel real to be fair. I think the realisation will kick in real quick."

Leeds United Ethan Ampadu told the BBC's Don't Go To Bed Just Yet about promotion: "This started the day we lost at Wembley [last season]. We were very disappointed that day, we didn't perform to the levels that we wanted to so that was a big goal of ours this year from the lads who stayed to new lads that came in. Everyone was on the same page and I think that showed.

"We had a little spell recently where we didn't perform to the levels we wanted. This run-in was about performing to our standards and we have done that. We have got over the line, we have achieved one of our targets."

BBC Radio 5 Live

Leeds United fan Gyp Walters, speaking to BBC Radio 5 Live this morning, hailed the work done by Daniel Farke especially in the conditions he's had to work in:

"What Daniel Farke has done is he's come into a team that was in absolute chaos when he came in. He got us near to it last season but we ran out of steam towards the end of the season. Then had to sell £100 million worth of players and then had to rebuild the team.

"And in one of the toughest leagues in the world, he got 90 + points two years running. That just shows the professional job he's done but people are thinking he doesn't give what Bielsa gave to Leeds. He never will and that will always be separate."

It's fair to say Leeds and Burnley have been a cut above the rest in the Championship.

Sheffield United were also giving the duo company at the top throughout the season but the Blades' campaign has withered in recent weeks and they will have to settle for third place.

So how good have the Championship top two been?

Leeds have been the best attacking unit in the league and Burnley have the most solid defence.

Daniel Farke's Leeds have scored 89 goals in 44 games this season - 22 more than Norwich City, who are second in that list.

Burnley have conceded the least number of goals. Scott Parker's side have let in just 15 with Leeds, who have conceded 29, the second-best.

The Clarets also made it 32 Championship games unbeaten, closing in on the 33-match record set by Reading in 2005-06.

Steve: My question is surely there has to be a fairer system in place for the promoted teams so we can stop these teams coming up then going back down the next season. Also I think both Leeds and Burnley will have learned a lot since they were last in the Premier League, so better recruitment.

Hi Steve. Not sure how the system can change now. I have been asked about changing the fixture list so teams coming up do not play the big teams early on, but that is a non-starter because you can’t seed the fixture list and it would open a very big can of worms.

I think the key to your point is your final one. Daniel Farke and Scott Parker – and their clubs – have been through this before so will have hopefully learned important lessons.

Joe Hart
Former Burnley goalkeeper on Monday Night Club

He [James Trafford] is a different human, physically, growth-wise. He looks like a big, strong goalkeeper. When he first moved to Burnley to play Vincent [Kompany] knew what he was capable of but being capable and being able to prove it at the highest level is tough.

It didn't feel right. I love him, he is so confident and charasmatic. He really believes in himself and I know for a fact he has been working hard on his physical development. There are some stats he has produced this year and absolutely formidable in goal for Burnley. He will be centre of plenty of activity this summer.
