Callum: Bonding is strong again as new boss makes impact

ENERGY LEVELS HAVE RISEN SAYS WINGER HUDSON-ODOI

- By SARAH CLAPSON

WINGER Callum Hudson-Odoi says Sean Dyche has helped restore a sense of unity at Nottingham Forest after a difficult start to the season.

Dyche became the Reds' third head coach of the campaign when he replaced Ange Postecoglou last month. Postecoglou lasted only 39 days at the helm and failed to win a single game in that time.

Since the Greek-born Australian's departure, Forest have taken steps in the right direction. They have lost only once in all competitions under Dyche and toppled reigning Premier League champions Liverpool 3-0 at the weekend.

Hudson-Odoi can see similarities between the spirit the new boss has instilled and that which prevailed under Nuno Espirito Santo last term. A sense of togetherness was at the heart of the Reds' seventh-placed finish in 2024-25 and it appears they have got that back.

"Sean and his staff have come in and done an amazing job," said Hudson-Odoi ahead of tonight's Europa League clash at home against Malmo (8pm).

"Since they've been here you can tell the energy around the group has changed and everybody's just working as hard as we can to get the best possible results.
