Nottingham Forest Appoints Ange Postecoglou After Nuno Espirito Santo Dismissal

Ange Postecoglou has begun his tenure as Nottingham Forest's head coach, taking over from Nuno Espírito Santo after the latter's departure due to disagreements with club management. Postecoglou's first game in charge was a 3-0 loss to Arsenal, a result he attributed partly to limited preparation time and the disruption of an international break. Despite the setback, he promised a rapid implementation of his attacking, possession-based style, aiming to have the team playing his football as soon as their next match in the Carabao Cup against Swansea. The Australian coach, who recently led Tottenham to a Europa League title, expressed his ambition to bring trophies to Forest and restore harmony within the club after previous internal conflicts. Owner Evangelos Marinakis shares this vision, expecting success and silverware, especially given the strong squad inherited by Postecoglou. Overall, Postecoglou is focused on quickly embedding his principles, fostering team spirit, and making Nottingham Forest a competitive force in the Premier League and European competitions.
