Newcastle<\/a> means Postecoglou has failed to win any of his first seven games in all competitions and Forest have conceded an average of more than two goals per match.<\/p>\n“If it had not have been for Sels, it could have been a five-goal defeat easily,” said James on BBC Radio 5 Live’s Football Daily podcast. “Last season, he was outstanding and they would never have got to where they did if they had a lesser goalkeeper. <\/p>\n
“But if the goalkeeper is having to play that well through the course of the season, then there is a problem with who is in front of him. <\/p>\n
“Postecoglou was not there then so there is a bigger problem for him to deal with. <\/p>\n
“He hasn’t got the comfort of a transfer window right now, but they need to let him get to one.”<\/p>\n
