Jamie Carragher sends clear Nottingham Forest instruction to Evangelos Marinakis amid Steve Cooper rumours

Jamie Carragher believes Steve Cooper "deserves a lot longer" in charge of Nottingham Forest after getting the club promoted back to the Premier League for the first time in 23 years.

Cooper is under increasing pressure following the 4-0 defeat to Leicester City on Monday night, the team's fifth straight loss. It has been reported that he is "on the brink of losing his job", with Rafa Benitez named as a possible replacement.

The Reds showed a lack of cohesion on the pitch and after signing 22 players in the summer, gelling the squad together has proven difficult. But the Liverpool legend Carragher believes the 42-year-old should be given more time by Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis.
