NOTTINGHAM Forest's new manager Ange Postecoglou is adamant he can handle the pressure of turning his club into trophy winners as he prepares for his debut against Arsenal tomorrow.

New Forest boss Postecoglou shoulders great expectations

Postecoglou was hired by Forest earlier this week, returning to the Premier League just three months after being sacked by Tottenham.

The Australian, who lost his job at Tottenham 16 days after winning the Europa League, arrived at the City Ground following Nuno Espirito Santo's dismissal.

Nuno fell out with Forest owner Evangelos Marinakis over the club's transfer policy and paid the price despite leading them to European qualification for the first time in 30 years.

Marinakis hailed Postecoglou's appointment by insisting Forest are ready to challenge for silverware.

That might seem an ambitious statement given Forest have not won a major trophy since the 1990 League Cup.
