Under-fire coach the Forest head coach presented a heartfelt justification about his career as he vowed to secure trophies at Nottingham Forest provided with patience

The experienced manager is being questioned having been unable to secure victory in none of his initial seven fixtures after taking over from Nuno Espirito Santo in September

Forest have been reviewing their options during the international break, and former Clarets coach Sean Dyche a potential option reviewed as a potential replacement even though Postecoglou only being appointed for barely over a month

Forest faces Chelsea on Saturday while Postecoglou presented a five-minute monologue during his pre-game media briefing, with the team sitting 17th in the Premier League

"Certain people focus on the problems while I observe at the progress being made," he said, "I am really excited as I have a team of developing footballers eager to transform"

He also confirmed he did not speak with the club's owner the Greek businessman throughout the break

"I don't intend to use my time regarding external perceptions" he added

"I simply don't conform, not here, across the board" he elaborated

Previous Club History

"I became manager of Tottenham and was informed by the chairman back then 'this organization must secure silverware'"

"He stated 'we attempted to bring winners in, the Portuguese coach and the former Chelsea boss and it hasn't worked, we require an alternative method'"

"I was slightly offended by that statement since I consider myself as successful"

Justifying His Performance

"We finished fifth my first year" he noted

"Every time the star striker put the ball in I'd wish he had remained for another season because it would have been useful to have him following our fifth-place finish"

"Yet somehow that season has been erased from historical accounts" he contended

Future Focus

"Thus, we reach the present situation in which there exists another perspective to present, that possibly I am not a failed manager who got lucky to secure this position"

"but perhaps I am a coach that when allowed opportunity, the story always ends identically"

"With every team I've managed, it ends the same - alongside me holding silverware"

Postecoglou won continental honors in May - Tottenham's first trophy in nearly two decades along with their initial continental honor after forty-one years

Previous Scottish champion also promised, if given time, he would persist with his track record of claiming honors at each club he's coached
