Unyielding Postecoglou Asserts 'Grant Me Opportunity' During Pressure
Ange Postecoglou has not won none of his seven fixtures after taking over from the previous manager this autumn
Pressured boss the Forest head coach delivered a passionate justification of his legacy and committed to win silverware for the team if given time
The experienced manager is under pressure after failing to win none of his opening seven games after taking over from Nuno Espirito Santo in September
The club has been assessing potential alternatives over the pause in fixtures, and former Clarets coach Sean Dyche among the names considered to possibly take over even though Postecoglou only being appointed for just 38 days
The team welcomes the London club in their next match while Postecoglou delivered a lengthy address in his match preview media briefing, with Forest 17th in England's top flight
"Some look at the weeds yet I notice at what is growing," he declared, "I am really excited as I have a squad of emerging talents ready to evolve"
Postecoglou likewise stated he hadn't communicated with the chairman the Greek businessman over the recent pause
"I refuse to spend my time regarding external perceptions" he added
"I genuinely don't match, not just at Forest, throughout football" he elaborated
Previous Club History
"I assumed control of the North London club and was told from the owner during that period 'this club needs to claim silverware'"
"He said 'we attempted to bring winners in, the Special One and Antonio [Conte] yet it proved unsuccessful, we need an alternative method'"
"I was a bit taken aback by those words since I consider myself as triumphant"
Defending His Record
"We finished fifth in my initial campaign" he noted
"On each occasion the star striker found the net I often thought he would have continued one more year since it could have been useful to keep his services after finishing fifth"
"Yet somehow that year has disappeared from the record books" he argued
Future Focus
"Thus, we reach the present situation in which there exists another perspective to present, that maybe I'm not a disappointing tactician who was fortunate to obtain this role"
"but possibly I'm a manager who if provided patience, the tale invariably finishes similarly"
"Throughout my coaching career, the outcome is identical - through my leadership celebrating success"
Postecoglou won the Europa League last spring - Tottenham's first trophy for 17 years along with their initial continental trophy in over four decades
Previous Scottish champion likewise vowed, if given time, he would continue his history of winning trophies at each club he's coached
