Forest lost to Newcastle but conceding three goals has become a rarity and, after 38 games under Nuno, it's clear how far they have come

Nuno Espirito Santo spoke to BBC Sport after Nottingham Forest's defeat against Newcastle: "I cannot say that was a bad performance, that is totally out of the question. We played against a very good team that was able to control us and then hurt us in the way we've been doing. It is a lesson for us to learn.

The City Ground club were beaten 3-1 at home by Newcastle United, despite being 1-0 up at half-time. While they are still in a top ten position, Santo knows that his team can quickly slip down the table unless they get back to basics.
