Glasner fears he will be next Forest sacking if wins don't follow

Depending on what metrics you look at, there is a genuine debate over whether Forest have not been good enough, or whether they have been on the wrong end of some close games.

Against Brentford, their expected goals (xG) tally of 0.85 was almost double that of the hosts' (0.46).

It has been a familiar tale throughout this season. Correct as of full-time at Brentford, Forest have the fourth-highest xG in the Premier League this season (14.33) - but with six goals, they are the division's lowest scorers.

It is not for the want of trying. Forest are second only to Manchester United for most shots per Premier League game of any side.
