Tottenham Hotspur manager Ange Postecoglou has taken time to praise his counterpart at Nottingham Forest.

As Spurs prepare to take on the Premier League minnows, Postecoglou threw his weight behind Steve Cooper.

The beleaguered Forest coach is fighting for his job, over 18 months after gaining promotion to the top flight.

"We all are (under pressure), aren't we? You would have been coming for me if we didn't win last week, be honest," Postecoglou said in his pre-match press conference

"I really like Coops. A couple of summers ago, the year they got promoted, we actually stayed at the same hotel in Athens - he was with his family and me with mine.

"It can't be dismissed what an achievement it was for him to get Forest into the Premier League and keep them up. All of us want to make impact at football clubs, he's made an undeniable impact.

"He is a top manager and I'm sure he will work his way through this one as well."
