Forest lost to Newcastle but conceding three goals has become a rarity and, after 38 games under Nuno, it's clear how far they have come

Nuno Espirito Santo spoke to BBC Sport after Nottingham Forest's defeat against Newcastle: "I cannot say that was a bad performance, that is totally out of the question. We played against a very good team that was able to control us and then hurt us in the way we've been doing. It is a lesson for us to learn.

Nuno Espirito Santo acknowledged Nottingham Forest were taught "a lesson" by Newcastle United, even if he did not criticise his side following a 3-1 defeat at the City Ground.
