"Postecoglou is winless from seven outings since he took charge last month, replacing Nuno Espirito Santo, who is now West Ham manager, after a very public falling out with Marinakis. Nuno was given his marching orders in the last international break, and there are concerns in England that Postecoglou may suffer the same fate during this week's break for international football."
"It has been a tricky period for the former Tottenham and Celtic manager to instil his philosophies on a group who had already begun their season and whose style of play under the previous manager stood in stark contract to 'Angeball'. The teething problems have been too difficult to overcome so far across both the Premier League and the first two matches of the Europa League, the competition Postecoglou won with Spurs last season, with just two draws to show for the managerial change."
"Making the situation worse for Postecoglou has been the less than warm welcome he has received from the Forest fans, who adored Nuno. On what should have been a night of celebration for the Nottingham faithful at the City Ground last week when Forest hosted their first European match in 29 years, the supporters chanted 'sacked in the morning' to their new manager as their team lost 3-2 to Danish side FC Midtjylland."
Ange Postecoglou has failed to win any of his first seven matches in charge, registering only two draws across Premier League and Europa League fixtures. He replaced Nuno Espirito Santo following a public falling out with owner Evangelos Marinakis, with Nuno dismissed during the last international break. Forest supporters who admired Nuno have reacted coldly, chanting 'sacked in the morning' during a 3-2 home defeat to FC Midtjylland. Implementation of Postecoglou's 'Angeball' philosophy has been hampered by the midseason change and contrasting prior tactics. Media links to Marco Silva and Rafael Benitez have increased pressure ahead of the international break.
