Does Steve Cooper have an assistant for scratching his ear as video goes viral on Twitter

After a funny clip surfaced online, football fans can’t stop watching the video and are sure that Nottingham Forest manager Steve Cooper has a helper who scratches his ear

The 43-year-old Welsh manager led his team to a historic 1-0 victory over Chelsea on Saturday at Stamford Bridge. However, Cooper’s post-game interview made him famous on social media. He began to itch his right ear while describing the course of the game to Forest TV. However, he was sporting a blue shirt, and an arm with a red piece of clothing connected to it entered the frame. Due to the colour mismatch, it appeared as if someone else did it.

That’s what you can afford when you have a Premier League budget, another joked. The third person said, “They brought him in on transfer deadline day.” Another said, “The higher up the ladder you go, the less work you have to do.”

Forest shocked Chelsea at Stamford Bridge

Nottingham Forest defeated Chelsea 1-0 at Stamford Bridge thanks to an outstanding defensive masterclass from Steve Copper and his lads. At the start of the second half, Anthony Elanga, a substitute, scored the game-winning goal by intercepting a pass from Taiwo Awoniyi and finishing beautifully. At the beginning of the second half, the attacker skillfully lobbed the ball past Robert Sanchez, and Fores immediately put up an outstanding defensive performance.

The Blues controlled the ball but didn’t put enough effort into Matt Turner. Striker Nicolas Jackson, however, blew a great opportunity to make it 1-0 when he fired Raheem Sterling’s cross over the bar from five yards.

After four Premier League games, Forest has two victories and two losses going into the break. Wins over Sheffield United and Chelsea have offset losses to Arsenal and Manchester United. After a two-week break, Cooper’s team will play at home against Burnley, who eliminated them from the Carabao Cup on Wednesday.
