The future of Enze Postecoglou is becoming unclear.
Nottingham Forest will play Chelsea in the eighth round of the English Premier League in the 2025-2026 season at the City Ground in Nottingham, England, at 8:30 p.m. on the 18th (Korea time). Nottingham have fallen to 17th place in the league with just one win in seven league games.
Coach Postecoglou's position is shaking greatly. Postecoglou took the helm of Nottingham after Nunu Espiritu Santo was abruptly replaced. Coach Postecoglou, who was dismissed even after leading Tottenham to a Europa League victory, returned to the Premier League faster than expected.
Coach Postecoglou, who also called for the victory this time, is already rumored to be replaced. This is because he has not won a single game in seven games since his inauguration. While winning two draws and five losses, problems are occurring simultaneously on both sides of offense and defense. No one expected Nottingham, which had a historic performance last season, to collapse so quickly.
With Nottingham collapsing, Postecoglou's position is naturally threatened. The BBC said on the 18th that the possibility of defeat this weekend cannot be taken lightly by Nottingham's Postecoglou. It is Postecoglou who knows the harsh reality of the football manager's job better than anyone else. Just five months ago, Postecoglou led Tottenham to win the Europa League, ending the club's 17-year reign without a tie. But just over two weeks later, he was notified of his dismissal' and reported that Postecoglou was on the verge of being dismissed.
The media reported that Postecoglou, who has now made a fresh start as Nottingham's head coach, is once again at the center of fierce criticism. This time, however, the achievements he has made are far less. He has led seven games since taking over 38 days ago, following Nunu Espiritu Santo, but has yet to win a single game, pointing out that Postecoglou is performing too poorly.
Finally, the BBC reported 'So if Postecoglou loses for the fourth time in five Premier League games since taking office, it would not be a surprise to the manager himself that rumors of a replacement would resurface. In the end, he issued a strong warning to Postecoglou, saying he was the one who lost his previous job even after lifting the trophy.
Reporter Sami Mokbel, who wrote this article, said "Nottingham is already in the process of finding a potential replacement for Postecoglou," he further stated on his personal social media.
If Postecoglou is replaced as it is, Tottenham will have a stronger perception that Son Heung-min has achieved good results. In his first season in office, Son Heung-min flew around and finished fifth in the league, and last season, Son Heung-min's performance in the league hit the worst. Without a Son Heung-min ace, it is completely collapsing in Nottingham. There are not many opportunities left for Postecoglou.
