In the eyes of the media, Twain not being sarcastic when he opened his mouth was "loss of control" and forgetting himself. In fact, his recent good mood was a form of expression.
Having eliminated AC Milan in the Champions League game and advanced to the top eight, they also had endless success in the domestic league tournament. In the 27th round of the league tournament, Nottingham Forest already had the same number of points as the top-ranked Arsenal.

After the 28th round of the league tournament, Twain's team jumped to number one. Arsenal currently had 64 points after they tied for two consecutive games and Manchester United caught up to them. While the Forest team topped the table with 66 points.
