While others try to imitate Manchester City, investing this and that and passing as if bonus points are provided for most pings, Nottingham Forest is in its own Premier League crusade.
They are field defenders who delight in defending themselves, the midfielders who are glad to lod, the extremes that concern their men and a striker who rewards everything with their cruelty. As a fan told us near the press box, this is the 'appropriate football' we are seeing. Difficult to disagree after an annihilation of 7-0.
At a time when many are trying to reinvent the wheel, the forest deserves credit for remembering the classic approach can still lead to where they want to go. At this time, he has them on the way to the Champions League, which would be a beautiful view to contemplate in the city.
It is no use trying to be fashionable if you can't use it well, after all, and Brighton was a foot ads for the worst weekend dressed in a modern manager in Fabian Hurzeler.
While Nuno Espirito Santo has his side working with his strengths, and that included him to change a three butt on this occasion, Hurzeler showed only the weaknesses in his contrasting style.
Until the end, visitors tried to pass the back, a useless mission that resulted in the goalkeeper Bart Verbruggen who gave the ball to the Jota Silva forest to score the seventh of the afternoon of the hosts in the 91st minute.

It was the perfect answer to what had been a mistreated 5-0 by Bournemouth the previous week, when questions were asked about whether it was the beginning of the Forest fall.
However, here, even in the absence of Callum Hudson-odoi, still marginalized by an injury to the groin, they rose with their three strikers leading the road in the field of the city.
Barcelona had the MSN. Real Madrid had the BBC. Paris Saint-Germain had the MNM. Forest could be competing with those clubs in the Champions League from next season, with this obliteration of Brighton courtesy of the AMC.
That is Anthony, Morgan and Chris, or Elanga, Gibbs-White and Wood, as indicated in the back of their shirts. Brighton saw those block capitals in abundance while chasing the three Forest strikers in vain.
Wood got a hat-trick, Elanga added three assists and, nevertheless, Gibbs-White beat them all in the way he played with Brighton. They can average the lowest possession in the Premier League, but at least Forest makes it count when they have the ball.
