Senegalese media share verdict on Ismaila Sarr after Crystal Palace star shines in 5-0 win

Here’s a rephrased version of the article, keeping the core details and tone intact while presenting it in a fresh and concise style: — Postecoglou Under Fire as Forest Fall Again – Players Appear to Snub Boss After Latest Defeat Ange Postecoglou’s tough start at Nottingham Forest continued with another setback, as his side fell 2-0 to Newcastle United, extending his winless run to seven games in charge. Pressure is now mounting on the Australian manager, who has yet to secure a victory since taking over in September. Forest managed to keep things level in the first half at St James’ Park, but Bruno Guimarães broke the deadlock after the break with a well-taken strike. Nick Woltemade sealed the result with a penalty in the 84th minute after Elliott Anderson clumsily brought him down in the box. The loss leaves Forest teetering just above the relegation zone in 17th place, with five points from seven matches — only one of which has come under Postecoglou, in a 1-1 draw with Burnley. Across all competitions, he’s overseen five defeats and two draws since replacing Nuno Espírito Santo. Players Appear to Ignore Postecoglou After Final Whistle Concerns over Postecoglou’s future have intensified, with reports suggesting his job was already under review before the Newcastle clash. Following the defeat, footage captured at full-time has sparked even more speculation — with no Forest players seen acknowledging their manager. Daily Mail journalist Craig Hope shared the clip on social media, commenting: “No Forest players appear to engage with Ange Postecoglou post-match. He stood alone applauding fans before walking off.” This moment, widely viewed as a potential sign of disconnect within the squad, only adds to fears that Postecoglou has yet to win over the dressing room — something always expected to be a challenge after the progress made under Espírito Santo. Despite Postecoglou’s impressive résumé, which includes stints at Celtic and Tottenham, results have not followed — and player support may now be wavering. Discontent is also growing among the fans, who were heard chanting “You’re getting sacked in the morning” after the recent 3-2 loss to Midtjylland in the Europa League. Postecoglou Responds: “I Don’t Lack Self-Belief” Speaking after the defeat to Newcastle, Postecoglou remained defiant despite acknowledging that he expects to speak with club owner Evangelos Marinakis during the international break. “I see it as an exciting opportunity — that’s why I took this job. And I still believe in it, even more now,” he said. “I’m 60 and managing in the Premier League — you think I got here by accident? I’ve picked fights with people I knew would beat me. That’s who I am.” He added: “There always has to be a manager under the microscope in the Premier League. It’s my turn now. But like most of us, I welcome the challenge.” However, with results going against him, fans turning, and now questions over dressing room support, Postecoglou’s future at Forest looks increasingly uncertain. The international break may offer the club a natural window to make a decision — and based on current signs, a change may not be far off. — Would you like a shorter summary version or a more neutral tone for publication?
