Ange Postecoglou’s pre-match defence
Share
Preamble
Hello and welcome to live, minute-by-minute coverage of the Nottingham Forest v Chelsea at City Ground. It’s our professional duty to remind you that Ange Postecoglou, who was appointed Forest manager on 9 September 2025, is reportedly fighting for his job, however ludicrous and depressing that might be.
Ange’s future – and his monologue at yesterday’s press confererence – is the dominant context before today’s game against Chelsea, who themselves will hope to pick off where they left off before the international break.
Chelsea’s thrilling victory over Liverpool relieved some of the (ludicrous, depressing) scrutiny on their manager Enzo Maresca, though his celebration of their winning goal means he will be banned from the touchline for today’s game. Mind the laundry baskets.
Kick-off: 12.30pm BST.
