"Ange Postecoglou can breathe a sigh of relief for now as multiple reports out of England suggest Nottingham Forest will not sack the Australian manager during the current international break. The Daily Mail reported that Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis is unlikely to make a move before they welcome Chelsea to the City Ground next Saturday, having taken time to assess Postecoglou's immediate future in recent days."
"Postecoglou is winless from seven games across the Premier League and the Europa League, and the Forest faithful have quickly grown restless as they did not want previous manager Nuno Espirito Santo to be sacked. The now West Ham manager had a very public falling out with Marinakis, and Postecoglou has received the brunt of the fans' frustrations with the club in the form of chants of 'sacked in the morning' during Forest's last two matches."
"Forest's squad have struggled to adapt to the change in managerial philosophy as Nuno often employed a very defensive mindset compared to Postecoglou's well-documented attacking principles. But even a reversion to a more Nuno-like style of play in their last outing at Newcastle failed to reap any rewards as the players clearly have been unsettled by a period of instability at the club."
Ange Postecoglou is expected to remain Nottingham Forest manager through the current international break as owner Evangelos Marinakis is reportedly unlikely to sack him before the Chelsea match. Postecoglou has not won in seven matches across the Premier League and Europa League, and supporters have grown restless, chanting 'sacked in the morning' during recent games. Forest sit 17th, one point above the relegation zone, and have one point from two European outings. Upcoming fixtures include Chelsea, Porto and Bournemouth, offering chances to improve results. Players have struggled to adapt from Nuno Espirito Santo's defensive approach to Postecoglou's attacking philosophy, and instability has unsettled the squad.
