Premier League
Nottingham Forest is going through a more than murky moment. Despite parting ways with Nuno Espírito Santo due to disagreements with the owner, the arrival of Ange Postecoglou has not managed to stop the exodus of negative results.
Postecoglou landed at the club after Nuno's abrupt dismissal, with the challenge of consolidating a team that had exceeded expectations last season. However, in seven official matches, he already has five defeats and no victories, marking the worst start for a Forest coach in over a century.
Postecoglou, under fire: results pushing him into the abyss
The Australian coach's start in England has been disastrous. In the Premier League, he is yet to secure a win, and the loss against Newcastle (0-2) has completely raised concerns.
Furthermore, the Europa League has not been kind either: a draw and a defeat, along with the surprising elimination against Swansea in the EFL Cup, place him on the brink of disaster.
At a press conference, Postecoglou insists that his team dominates "all aspects" but simply does not translate that dominance into victories.
Marco Silva strongly rumored to replace him in the dugout
Amid the crisis and increasing pressure, the name of Marco Silva (current coach of Fulham) emerges as the most solid candidate to succeed him at Nottingham Forest.
Forest seems to be considering a move during the international break, anticipating that a change might be necessary to salvage the season.
What's interesting is that Silva is already familiar with the environment: he worked under Marinakis' ownership in the past, and his name has always been well regarded in Forest circles.
From Nuno to Postecoglou: Forest in free fall
Nuno Espírito Santo's departure was controversial. His relationship with the owner had deteriorated, but his sports management, although uneven, had produced results just when they were needed.
In contrast, Postecoglou arrived with an ambitious offensive project, but the club seems unprepared for the abrupt transition. The times have not aligned with the change.
The fans no longer expect excuses: during the defeat against Midtjylland in Europe, they began to chant "sacked in the morning," making their frustration clear.
Postecoglou claims not to be surprised by the reaction, but his public composure has not been enough to contain the wave of discontent.
Right now, Nottingham Forest is at a crossroads: either support an identity project or uproot and try to rebuild with another helm.
The outlook is clear: if the results do not change soon, the decision could come in days. A change in direction with a new coach could be the lifeline Nottingham Forest needs to reignite quickly.
