Nuno Espírito Santo has been in charge of Nottingham Forest for four months .

The Portuguese was sacked by Tottenham at the end of the season .

Forest are in a race to qualify for the Champions League and are preparing for an FA Cup semi-final.

Nuno is meticulous, cool under pressure but capable of outbursts of emotion backed by self-belief.

To relax he plays the handpan, a calming musical instrument often used during meditation.

Wolves were promoted in 2018 with four games remaining after Fulham failed to beat Brentford thanks to a stoppagetime Neal Maupay equaliser.

Nuno 's trusted fitness coach, António Dias , worked hard over pre-season .

There is often an underlying closeness between Nuno and his players.
