He really deserves the award because he has made his club Nottingham Forest look impressive this season and achieved consecutive wins in December, achieving consecutive wins in the Premier League is not easy because the competition in the EPL is very tight while Liverpool who have collected more points they did not achieve consecutive wins like Nottingham Forest did so he should get appreciation for his hard work.
Appreciation for a fairly hard work does need to be given because as you said that competing and getting consecutive wins in the Premier League is not a very easy job for every team, but what Nottingham Forest has achieved has really made many people wonder and currently the team is one of the teams that is able to compete in the top four zone with other strong teams. But I can't wait to see how Nottingham Forest's condition is when they meet Liverpool in the near future, because if Nottingham Forest can win again in this upcoming match, of course they are really extraordinary this season.
Nottingham Forest is a surprise team that is rarely highlighted but they can now compete in the top 4 of course appreciation is very appropriate to be given.
Apart from the history of the Nottingham Forest team which is quite flashy in the Premier League but now everything is different and I see that Nottingham Forest this season is built slowly with equality of player quality in all lines so that no one player stands out to be used as a mainstay, this is an extraordinary team, not only in the first half of this season they made a surprise but I am sure they will be able to make a surprise until the end of the season, this is interesting to look forward to.
