"the story always ends the same, with me and a trophy"
"If you look at it through the prism of: I'm a failed manager who is lucky to get this job - I know you're smirking at me, and that's what's being said, and I can find the print where that's being said - then of course, it looks like this manager is under pressure."
"There is an alternative story. I came to the Premier League two years ago, I took over Tottenham - 'Spursy Tottenham'. I was told by the chairman at the time: 'This club has to win a trophy. We've tried to bring winners in, Jose [Mourinho] and Antonio [Conte], and it hasn't worked, we need something different'."
Ange Postecoglou defended his coaching career, asserting "the story always ends the same, with me and a trophy". Nottingham Forest remain without a win in seven matches since his September appointment and sit 17th in the Premier League. The club have lost four of their last five league games (D1) and failed to score in each defeat, risking three consecutive goalless top-flight matches for the first time since April 1999. Forest host Chelsea next, a side against whom Postecoglou lost all four Premier League meetings while managing Tottenham. His Tottenham tenure concluded with Europa League silverware, and he believes his spell there was misjudged.
