Nottingham Forest can approach the second half of the Premier League season with belief and positivity after climbing to 13th in the table.
Saturday's 2-0 victory over Leicester City made it back-to-back league wins for the Reds, and moved them five points clear of the bottom three. There is still a long way to go, and a tough fight ahead, but Forest have improved significantly in recent months.
Head coach Steve Cooper has previously admitted the summer overhaul which saw 22 signings made came with certain challenges. Now the team has had time to gel and players have had the chance to adapt to the top-flight, however, results and performances have been on an upward curve.
