Nottingham Forest news

The Premier League action returns after the international break as struggling Nottingham Forest host flying Chelsea.

How to watch the Premier League match between Nottingham Forest and Chelsea.

Ange Postecoglou has riled up Nottingham Forest and rival fans by once again referencing his trophy record in defence of his poor start in charge at the City Ground. Forest are winless in seven games in all competitions since the Australian took the reins following Nuno Espirito Santo's sacking, a run that includes disappointing defeats to Swansea, Sunderland and Danish side Midtjylland.

Under-fire Forest manager Ange Postecoglou launched into a passionate defence of his managerial career and believes he will never be accepted in England, despite his track-record of winning trophies. Postecoglou goes into Saturday's clash with Chelsea knowing another defeat could cost him his job, just weeks after taking over from the sacked Nuno Espirito Santo.

The Premier League is reportedly set to vote on proposals that could see a “salary cap” of sorts introduced at the top end of English football. An “anchoring” plan has been drawn up, which would limit spending for elite clubs, with shareholders expected to address that issue in November. Several teams, including Manchester rivals United and City, are said to oppose the concept.

The end of the October international window is upon us, club football fans. Get ready for four more weeks of Premier League fun before we're lulled back into the November break. Fortunately, there's non-stop action before then to look forward to, beginning with some mouth-watering fixtures this coming weekend, including Manchester United's trip to Liverpool.

Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca will serve a one-match touchline ban after he admitted a Football Association (FA) charge of misconduct following his dismissal in the 2-1 Premier League victory over Liverpool. The Blues manager has also been fined £8,000 by the FA after his wild celebration following Estevao’s last-gasp winner at Stamford Bridge before the international break.

Nottingham Forest have reportedly made a decision on Ange Postecoglou's future ahead of the club's clash with Chelsea this weekend. The Australian is staring down the barrel after seven matches without a single victory. His side’s dismal start has left supporters restless and whispers growing louder that a managerial change is on the horizon unless a miracle turnaround begins against the Blues.

Alan Shearer has come to the defence of under-fire Nottingham Forest manager Ange Postecoglou, calling his tactical tweaks "really unusual" but insisting he shouldn't be sacked despite a dismal start. Postecoglou is yet to win a game since taking charge, but Shearer believes it's "ridiculous" to judge him so soon - even as Sean Dyche waits in the wings.

Nottingham Forest are considering replacing Ange Postecoglou with Sean Dyche, should they decide to part ways with the Australian coach after just a handful of games in charge. The former Tottenham Hotspur boss has failed to impress and win over the hearts of the Forest faithful and, with patience running low, could be moved on in favour of the former Everton and Burnley manager.

Newcastle United are set to land Nottingham Forest’s Chief Football Officer Ross Wilson as their new Sporting Director, dealing a major blow to Evangelos Marinakis’ club. The 41-year-old has reportedly agreed terms to move to St James’ Park, where he will succeed Paul Mitchell. Wilson’s appointment marks another major step in Newcastle’s off-field restructuring under Saudi ownership.

Bayern Munich are reportedly planning a surprise move for Nottingham Forest defender Murillo as they look to strengthen their backline next summer. The Brazilian centre-back was a big part of Forest's success last season as the club secured a spot in European competition for the first time in 30 years after finishing seventh in the Premier League.

Nottingham Forest have reportedly decided to stick with Ange Postecoglou — at least for now — despite growing calls for his dismissal following a winless start at the City Ground. After fans chanted “you’re getting sacked in the morning” during the 3-2 loss to Midtjylland, owner Evangelos Marinakis is using the international break to assess the situation.
