Postecoglou sends out a warning to his players

September 19, 2025

ANGE Postecoglou has warned his Nottingham Forest players nothing will come easy after they were knocked out of the Carabao Cup in dramatic fashion by Swansea City.

Igor Jesus' brace had put the Reds firmly in control of the third-round tie in south Wales before Swansea's remarkable late turnaround.

It left a bitterly disappointed Postecoglou ruing a missed opportunity and still searching for his first victory as head coach.

"It was very disappointing. It was a game we were well in control of and we should have seen it out a lot better than we did," the Forest boss said after his team’s 3-2 defeat.

"We certainly had the opportunities to kill the game off in the second half. I just got a sense the players thought it was sort of just going to happen automatically - that we were totally in control of the game.
