'Eloquent' Glasner 'impressed'

[Getty Images] BBC Radio Nottingham's Colin Fray says he was "impressed" by Oliver Glasner who was "very comfortable with the press" during his unveiling as new Forest manager. Glasner spoke to media for well over an hour on Thursday, fielding questions on subjects including his ambition, playing style, and any potential controversy surrounding his departure from Crystal Palace - given the recent rivalry between the two clubs . "He talks very eloquently," Fray told the Shut Up and Show More Football podcast. "He's very happy to be here. Lots of big, beaming smiles at light-hearted moments in the press conference, but lots of serious talk as well. "Not necessarily promising the earth, but talking about wanting to build solid foundations. "Forest fans over the last decade or so have heard a lot of first day interviews from a lot of managers. But, clearly this is a guy who has methods and they have been successful at his previous clubs. He was far from shy at mentioning these clubs. "Wherever he has been, he has built solidly. He has non-negotiables in how to build a squad. It doesn't always guarantee you success but it gives you the best chance of possibly being successful and without them you definitely won't be successful. "I was impressed. He is obviously very comfortable with the press given his experience in management. There's lots of things for Forest fans to take because of how considered he was in many of his answers."
