The veteran No. 2 came in after a long-term injury to first-choice goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario.
Forster made a number of good saves in a 2-2 draw in the Europa League group stage against AS Roma on Thursday.
Postecoglou stated after the match: “I don't think he lacks confidence.
“He is an experienced man and has probably thought that to himself. That's why he is there when we need to come on and be that reliable goalkeeper for us. It has helped that he has already played this year, it wasn't his first match.
“He played his role tonight and it's just disappointing that we couldn't capitalize on the football we played to get the three points. I don't think he's lacking in confidence but it's always good for him to get on tonight at least make a few big saves for us and get him back into the group.”
