Big fees can count for little says Dyche
The Chronicle
|October 25, 2025
SEAN Dyche says he does not know the true quality of the squad he has inherited at Nottingham Forest as big price tags do not mean players are Premier League ready.
-
The 54-year-old became the Reds' third manager of the season on Tuesday and kicked off his reign with a much-needed 2-0 Europa League victory at home to Porto two days later.
It was Forest's first victory since the opening day of the season and aresult they will look to build on when they return to Premier League action at Bournemouth tomorrow.
The two-time European Cup winners languish 18th despite last season's success and a summer splurge of around £180million, but Dyche is focused on characters rather than cost.
