Nottingham Forest will be on the search for their third manager of the season as Ange Postecoglou has been sacked after only a month in charge following 3-0 defeat to Chelsea.

The Australian took charge of the Forest at the start of the season replacing the outgoing Nuno Espírito Santo who was sacked after poor results and a breakdown in relationship with the ownership.

After failing to win any of his first 8 games in charge Postecoglou has been shown the exit door by Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis, making him the shortest serving manager in the clubs history.

The writing had been on the wall for the Aussie as pressure from the fans grew with each passing game as Forest looked to regain their form that gave them European football for the first time in 1996.

Postecoglou who guided Celtic to two consecutive Premiership trophies as well as a treble in his final season has found his fortunes much worse since switching Scotland for England.

Despite winning the Europa League ending Tottenham Hotspur’s 17 year trophy drought he was shown the door a mer 16 days later as the club finished 17th in a dismal league campaign.

Whilst the Australian’s high pressing attacking style of play captivated the Scottish game he has not been able to transform his fortunes to the Premier League and he will be on the hunt for his third job this year.

Postecoglou has faced criticism from the English media from the day he was appointed and it remains to be seen what his next move will be as his Premier League experiences have been far from ideal.

It remains to be seen who the City Ground club will turn to in a bid to get there season back on track and it will be an interesting process to follow. The early contender is Sean Dyche who was reportedly on the shortlist should the axe fall on Postecoglou.
