SkySport New: Has Ange Already Taken Forest Backwards? Nottingham Forest Fans & Management Lament as they’re Already Loosing hope in Ange Postecoglou
He has Already Taken Forest Backwards?
It’s only October, but the mood around the City Ground feels like mid-winter. When Ange Postecoglou was appointed, there was cautious optimism—maybe even excitement. A manager with Premier League experience, known for his attacking philosophy, seemed a bold and progressive step forward. But now, many Forest fans are asking the unthinkable: Have we already gone backwards?
The pressing game looks disjointed. The defense? Leaking goals like a sieve. And what happened to the midfield? Creativity has vanished, and confidence is clearly in tatters. Even more worrying is the apparent disconnect between Postecoglou and the squad—his style just doesn’t seem to be clicking with these players.
Behind the scenes, murmurs are growing louder. Management reportedly feels blindsided by how quickly the optimism has turned to concern. This wasn’t the revolution Forest needed—it’s starting to feel like regression dressed in tactical jargon.
Forest fans don’t expect miracles, but they do expect fight, structure, and purpose. Right now, none of those are showing up on the pitch.
Postecoglou still has time, but make no mistake: the patience is thinning, fast. And for a club trying to solidify its Premier League status, that’s a dangerous place to be..
