Overview

• Ange Postecoglou is winless in seven matches across the Premier League and Europa League, including five defeats.
• Multiple reports citing the Daily Mail say a change during the international break is unlikely, with the Chelsea match expected to inform the next step.
• Supporters have chanted for the manager’s sacking, and separate reporting says several players are disillusioned with the club’s direction.
• Speculation over successors highlights Marco Silva and Brendan Rodgers, though Silva’s contract and Marinakis’ preference for out-of-work appointments complicate an immediate move.
• A Football Insider podcast guest claims Silva has held talks with Forest, a claim not independently corroborated, as pundits such as Chris Waddle and Roy Keane argue over how much time Postecoglou should be given.
