Wolves have struggled throughout the 2025-26 campaign and have spent the majority of the season rooted to the bottom of the Premier League table. Cup competitions have provided a more positive outlet. Wolves beat Shrewsbury 6-1 before edging past Grimsby 1-0 to reach this stage of the FA Cup.

That nomination came on the back of league wins over Brentford and struggling West Ham United, defeat by third-placed Aston Villa and a point at home to leaders Arsenal. Throw in an FA Cup exit on penalties at the hands of Championship side Wrexham, a Europa League defeat by Sporting Braga, followed by a thumping win over Ferencvaros to secure a knockout phase play-off, and Forest's form since the turn of the year has been the definition of a mixed bag.

Yeah, within reason, as long as we carry out the roles properly. I mean, it's not a total free-for-all, where you can kind of go and decide, it's a little bit of where you end up. Bruno is that type where he understands the different roles and plays them particularly well. And Bryan has done very similar. So has Matheus [Cunha], as well, playing sometimes through the middle and sometimes off the left.

I'm feeling good. I've been getting the goals more than I have previously. Before I have had better performances but maybe not got the goals. I am feeling fit, strong and the only thing I can focus on is controlling what I can control and the rest will sort itself out. I am really enjoying my football, focusing on the next game with Brighton.

Monchi joined Villa in 2023 from Spanish side Sevilla, where he had been sporting director, having previously worked with Villa boss Unai Emery at the La Liga club. The pair took Villa to the Europa Conference League semi-finals in 2024 and secured a Champions League place as they finished fourth in the Premier League that season. They went on to reach the Champions League quarter-finals last season, being knocked out by eventual winners Paris St-Germain.
