Nottingham Forest fans love what Steve Cooper did in pre-season with Leicester City.
The former Forest boss was named as Enzo Maresca’s replacement earlier this summer but endured a turbulent pre-season campaign with the Foxes.
Friendly defeats to Palermo and Augsburg were followed by a crushing 3-0 loss to Lens, which sent King Power fans into a frenzy.
Cooper has come under fire from fans ahead of their first competitive game under his management, with many fearing the upcoming Premier League season.
Forest fans, meanwhile, are enjoying the misery of their rivals under their former boss, while they had a mixed pre-season with Nun Espirito Santo in charge.
Nottingham Forest fans laugh at Steve Cooper during Leicester City’s strike
Nuno’s side have won two, drawn two and lost one in five friendlies, but he is feeling positive about the season ahead.
The opening match against Bournemouth at the City Ground convinced the fans of a strong start to the season.
Meanwhile, Leicester will begin their return to the Premier League with a visit to Tottenham, and the hope of a positive start has already been extinguished.
Many Leicester fans have been critical of Cooper, much to the delight of Forest fans, who are now joking that the boss may have deliberately ruined their season due to his time at the City Ground.
