“Forest has an incredible team, the way they play is unbelievable. Igor Jesus wins every ball he contests. They are a top team. They were almost in the Champions League for one or two games last season and now they are in European competitions. A fantastic team and a difficult field to visit, especially in winter,” said Pep.
City now has 40 points and is chasing the leader Arsenal in the standings, which is 2 points ahead.
Nottingham Forest, on the other hand, is in 17th place in the English competition, five points above West Ham, which is at the top of the relegation zone.
