Ahead of Nottingham Forest's home match against Tottenham in Premier League Round 3, Forest manager Glasner spoke to the media.

On Forest's Squad

It's good that now we have a clear squad and we know which players will represent Nottingham Forest for at least the next four months. I'm very satisfied with our summer transfer window; these are the players we wanted to sign. On one hand, we wanted to reduce the number of players because we had too many, and on the other hand, we wanted to bring in players with good character and high quality.

We've achieved this by bringing in these ideal candidates. Now we have 21 outfield players and 3 goalkeepers, and we're building strong team spirit and cohesion where everyone knows how we want to play and how to work together. That's why we're satisfied with this transfer window.

On Tottenham's Heavy Spending in the Summer Transfer Window

They've been very busy this transfer window, spending enormous amounts of money. I think their net spending is only second to Liverpool in the Premier League. Tottenham had a rather difficult start to the season, but they brought in several new players toward the end of the transfer window. Now they're working to establish a common tactical philosophy and playing style. They're a very good team with an excellent manager who can clearly convey his ideas.

I think the match between Tottenham and Newcastle United could have ended differently, but we focus on ourselves and will do our best to secure our first win of the season.

De Zerbi has many lineup options, so it's difficult to predict Tottenham's starting XI. But on the other hand, De Zerbi has a clear playing style, which makes preparation relatively easier because those tactics and patterns are very clear. He has specific ways of playing, and I think in some situations they perform very well, while at other times things are still settling in and the new players need time to adapt. I expect Tottenham to play with high pressing, so we'll prepare accordingly.

Forest Has Only One Win in Their Last 12 Home Premier League Matches

The next chance comes on Saturday. The goal is always the same: to win the match, especially in front of our home supporters. But sometimes if you focus too much on the result, it can backfire. As long as we play our best, we have the best chance to win. The most important thing is not to worry too much about the poor record, otherwise it can become a self-fulfilling prophecy. I'm not concerned about this negative record, and I hope next time you won't ask me about it!

On Forest's New Signing Delap

The most important thing you consider when signing a striker is his finishing ability, because you want him to score goals. He's shown that throughout the week, which is very positive. We can see he hasn't quite reached match fitness yet, but he also made a positive impact in the Liverpool match, with his second goal coming from his running power, strength, and quick passing.

His physicality, his running ability, his strength – that's exactly what we've seen, particularly what we wanted to see from his time at Ipswich. He showed that in the 30 minutes he played away at Liverpool, so it's great to have him in the team.

On Reuniting with Muñoz at Forest

We wanted to bring in a high-quality player with good character, and Muñoz has proven that in the Premier League and at the World Cup. He's very reliable and has excellent character, but it will take time for him to fully adapt and get to know the whole team. We'll help him return to his best condition to perform at his highest level. Once he's able to play, we immediately knew this would be an excellent signing.
