Nottingham Forest's Ange Postecoglou Focuses on Long-Term Stability Despite Six-Match Winless Run

Nottingham Forest manager Ange Postecoglou remains unfazed by intense pressure and fan chants threatening his job after failing to win any of his first six matches in charge, including a recent 3-2 Europa League loss to FC Midtjylland. Despite the poor start and the team’s position near the Premier League relegation zone, Postecoglou emphasizes his focus on long-term progression and building a competitive team rather than immediate results. He recalls his experience at Tottenham Hotspur, where he knew months before his sacking yet still secured a major trophy, underscoring his belief that worrying about job security is unproductive. Postecoglou acknowledges that his players need to improve their mentality and be more ruthless in key moments to turn games around. He views the upcoming match against Newcastle as a crucial opportunity to reverse Forest's fortunes and boost morale. Overall, he stresses patience and confidence in the club’s potential despite the challenging start to his tenure.
