Defiant Forest Boss Declares 'Give Me Opportunity' During Pressure
Ange Postecoglou has not won any of his seven matches after taking over from Nuno Espirito Santo last month
Embattled coach the Forest head coach offered a heartfelt justification about his career as he vowed to claim trophies with the club allowed sufficient opportunity
The experienced manager is under pressure following his inability to win a single one of his initial seven fixtures after taking over from Nuno Espirito Santo last month
Nottingham Forest were reviewing their options throughout the break, and former Clarets coach the defensive specialist among the names evaluated as an alternative although the current manager only being appointed for barely over a month
The team welcomes Chelsea in their next match while Postecoglou presented an extended speech at his pre-match press conference, as Forest 17th in the Premier League
"Certain people focus at the weeds while I observe at the development occurring," he said, "I am really excited since I work with a team of developing footballers eager to transform"
Postecoglou likewise stated there was no discussion to owner the Greek businessman throughout the break
"I don't intend to use my energy about others' opinions" he emphasized
"I genuinely don't match, not just at Forest, just in general" he elaborated
Tottenham Experience
"I became manager of Spurs and received instructions by the leadership back then 'this club needs to claim a trophy'"
"He said 'we attempted to appoint proven winners, the Special One and the former Chelsea boss but it didn't succeed, we must have a different approach'"
"I felt somewhat insulted by that because I see myself as triumphant"
Defending His Record
"We finished fifth my first year" he remembered
"Every time Harry Kane found the net I'd wish he'd just stayed one more year because it would have been useful to retain him post our top-five position"
"Yet somehow that season has vanished from historical accounts" he asserted
Looking Forward
"So, we get to the current space where there's a different story to tell, that maybe I am not a disappointing tactician who got lucky to get this job"
"but possibly I'm a manager who if provided patience, the tale invariably finishes the same"
"With every team I've managed, it ends the same - with me holding silverware"
The manager secured European silverware in May - their first piece of silverware for 17 years plus their first UEFA silverware in over four decades
The ex-Celtic boss likewise vowed, allowed sufficient opportunity, he would maintain his record of claiming honors everywhere he has managed
