The January window is entering its final straight, and things are moving at lightning speed at the City Ground! David Ornstein has dropped a major bombshell reporting that Nottingham Forest have officially submitted a £35 million bid for Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta. The Frenchman is reportedly keen on a move to the East Midlands as he looks for a fresh challenge, and with personal terms not expected to be an issue, this one could move quickly. Wolfie breaks down the likelihood of this deal crossing the line before the deadline, especially with the added spice of Forest facing Palace this Sunday. Is Mateta the clinical finisher Sean Dyche needs to guarantee our safety?

In a shocking twist, we also have significant updates on Douglas Luiz's future. Reports from Fabrizio Romano and Sky Sports suggest a "Here We Go" agreement is in place for Luiz to return to Aston Villa on loan with an option to buy, effectively cutting his spell at Forest short. It’s been a frustrating time for the Brazilian at the City Ground, and with Unai Emery facing a midfield injury crisis, the move seems to suit all parties. We’re also diving into the surprise links to Brighton captain Lewis Dunk.

We want to hear from you in the comments—how do you feel about Douglas Luiz heading back to Villa Park? Is Mateta the "statement" signing we need, or should we be looking at other targets like Jørgen Strand Larsen? And what do you make of the Lewis Dunk rumours—is he exactly the kind of Premier League experience we need alongside Murillo? It’s going to be a wild few days as the clock ticks down, so make sure you’re subscribed to Forest Fan TV for all the latest breaking news and analysis.

Wolfie and the panel are back to dissect a massive afternoon in West London as Nottingham Forest secured a vital 2-0 victory over Brentford! After the midweek frustration in Braga, we saw a defensive masterclass from the "M&M" wall of Murillo and Milenkovic that felt like a throwback to our most resolute moments. But we have to ask the hard question: does the performance actually matter when the result is this big? Some are calling it a total "smash and grab" given the Bees' possession, while others see it as a Sean Dyche tactical masterclass in clinical, away-day football. We’re breaking down the goals from Igor Jesus and Taiwo Awoniyi and debating whether this grit is exactly what we need for the fight ahead.

The 3 points move us a crucial 5 points clear of the drop, but there's no time to celebrate with "crunch fixtures" looming on the horizon. We’re looking ahead to a relentless February schedule that sees us face Crystal Palace, Leeds United, and Wolves in a sequence that will surely define our Premier League status. Is the squad deep enough to handle this run, and will new man Lorenzo Lucca be the missing piece of the puzzle? Jump in the live chat and let us know—was yesterday the turning point for you, or are you still worried about the style of play?

Wolfie dissects what was a vital win against Brentford to move clear of the relegation zone!

Wolfie is back to break down a massive afternoon in West London as Nottingham Forest secured a vital 2-0 victory over Brentford! After the midweek frustration in Braga, Sean Dyche’s men delivered the ultimate "away day" performance, underpinned by a defensive display that felt like a throwback to our most resolute moments of last season. The "M&M" partnership of Murillo and Nikola Milenkovic was simply immense, dealing with everything the Bees threw into the box and helping Matz Sels keep a crucial clean sheet. It wasn't always pretty—Brentford dominated possession—but we were clinical when it mattered, with Igor Jesus’ early worldie and Taiwo Awoniyi’s late counter-attack sealer proving the difference.

This result is a genuine season-shifter, moving us five points clear of West Ham and the relegation zone at a time when the pressure was truly mounting. While the "Dyche-ball" style might still frustrate some who want to see more of the ball, you cannot argue with the efficiency of this performance. We survived the early scares, rode our luck at times, and then struck like a cobra to take all three points back to the City Ground.

We want to hear your post-match thoughts in the comments below! Are you fully behind this "safety-first" approach if it keeps us in the Premier League, or do you still want to see more attacking intent? Who was your Man of the Match—was it the defensive giants at the back or the goalscoring heroics of Igor Jesus? This win has given everyone a massive lift, so jump in the chat, let us know how you're feeling, and don't forget to like and subscribe for more Forest Fan TV content.

Wolfie looks at the latest transfer rumours regarding Forest moving for Palace striker Mateta!

Check out FFTV Merch! Click Here: https://forestfantv.com/

The January transfer window is heating up and a major new name has entered the frame! Italian sports journalist Matteo Moretto has linked Nottingham Forest with a sensational move for Crystal Palace striker Jean-Philippe Mateta. Reports suggest that Mateta is desperate for a move away from Selhurst Park this winter, and Forest have reportedly stepped up by offering the Frenchman a contract to lead the line at the City Ground. With our current striker shortage and the search for goalscoring reinforcements reaching a critical point, could Mateta be the physical, proven Premier League presence that Sean Dyche needs to save our season?

The stakes for our next match against Brentford have just been raised to a whole new level following today's results. West Ham’s victory over Sunderland has seen the table shift against us, piling even more pressure on the trip to the Gtech Community Stadium. Wolfie dives into the tactical nightmare facing Dyche and asks the question every fan is thinking: is there any genuine hope left for this match?

We want to hear from you in the comments—would Mateta be the perfect signing to keep us up, or is this just another name on a long list of January rumours? Can you see us getting anything at all against Brentford, or have today's results killed your optimism? Jump into the discussion, let us know if you think Marinakis needs to break the bank for a new forward, and don't forget to like and subscribe for the latest Nottingham Forest transfer news and match previews.
