Seven rounds had carried on in the league tournament, with Nottingham Forest achieving two draws and five wins to stay in fourth place in the league for now.
The competition this season had been fierce since the first round. By now, in October, the league tournament's top six teams' points were only three points difference. The top two, Manchester United and Arsenal, had the same points. They were only one point ahead of Nottingham Forest.
However, the season had only started two months ago. It was too early to say which team would win the title in the end.
Twain's plan this season was to stay within the top four in the league tournament and secure the qualification for next season's Champions League. They had to at least advance into the final four from the top eight in the Champions League. If they could win the title, then they had to fight for it at all costs. As for the EFL Cup and FA Cup, they were still used for the teams as practice.
