Steve Cooper responds as Nottingham Forest boss quizzed on his future after dismal defeat

Steve Cooper insists he is not thinking about his own situation as a fifth straight defeat piled the pressure on the Nottingham Forest boss.

A damaging first half proved costly as the Reds fell 4-0 at Leicester City. It leaves them bottom of the Premier League table, with four points from their first eight games.

It is not the return to the top-flight Forest will have been hoping for after last season’s play-off success ended a 23-year absence from this level. And it remains to be seen whether owner Evangelos Marinakis gives Cooper more time to gel a dressing room which saw 22 new arrivals during the summer transfer window, amid suggestions former Liverpool manager Rafael Benitez could be in the frame should a change be made.
