The 47-year-old, who assumed the role in early January, has managed 11 league games since taking over from Steven Schumacher as the head coach. Out of these matches, he has secured victories in three and suffered defeats in five, with Argyle encountering three of the Championship’s top five teams.
Reflecting on the past two months, he remarked on the intensity of the experience, emphasizing the constant need to stay focused. Facing challenges such as assessing recent performances and quickly shifting attention to upcoming crucial games, he acknowledged the demanding nature of the role.
Following a 2-0 home loss to second-placed Ipswich Town on Saturday, Foster’s team finds themselves just two points above the relegation zone. Their recent struggles include three consecutive home defeats without scoring, particularly against formidable opponents like Leeds United, West Bromwich Albion, and Ipswich.
Despite these setbacks, their sole victory in the last six matches was an impressive 2-0 win away at Middlesbrough. As they prepare to face Sheffield Wednesday at Hillsborough, Foster aims to widen the gap between his team and the six others hovering just below them in the tightly contested lower third of the table.
