King Kante 1,643 Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 4 minutes ago, Pizy said: So it’s Potter unless he turns it down, then. Hope he’s allowed to bring his entire coaching staff and absolutely everything he asks for in order to replicate what he has done at Brighton. And these players better buy in. Don't see him turning us down. I think how quickly this has gone means we have had this lined up. I suspect the club got agreement with Potter some days/weeks ago that he would join. The only thing we needed to do then was to match the clause. If that isn't the case, then this is some real ass clown stuff. If he turns us down and then we have to go on a hunt, we'll be deservedly 'a banter club'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LegenTerry 273 Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 So it's Potter. He would not travel to meet the board if he was not interested. Welcome and good luck. Specially with some ego pricks in the squad. bigbluewillie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luis Enrique 🤣 ffs he had one class season at Barcelona when he won a treble with the worlds best front line. Hes done fuck all else at club level. £20m compensation for Potter apparently. “Throwing money at it” narrative will continue. Also Sky now running that Boehly and co wanted rid of Tuchel for a while. And want Potter to change ethos, coach players and cosch the new players. I mean I know its only a report but what the fuck did Boelhy and co expect TT to do, none of that? I mean it really is laughable isnt it… biggest circus in town.

Milan 17,959 Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 One thing you cannot deny is that Brighton have been playing some simple, yet very good attacking football. Which is something we would have to go very very long time back to see that at Chelsea. So fingers crossed Potter can replicate that here. Which would great. But he will be up against some rotten apples. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAM09 7,062 Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 I'm actually shocked they've sacked him. We just signed Auba who was certainly a signing Tuchel was asking for & he's gone less than a week later. I hope the next appointment is one that's carefully considered.

Every coach has to make his name somewhere and I'm past cherry picking 'elite' ones from other teams. With Todd's model and the youth we've invested in, I'd prefer Potter, it fits with their profile. I'm disappointed with the sacking, I love Tuchel and I think asking him to be so involved in transfers was a catastrophic mistake, it's funny because I was listening to a podcast with the Brighton CEO and he was chatting about how they handle their transfer windows, I'm sure it's not different to other clubs, but there was a real insistence on following that process, whereas we seemed to jettison Marina and Co (correctly) with no DOF lined up, it's then highlighted how poor our transfer scouting department is - not youth, just the general target identification, hence the scatter gun approach. Poor management from us and I feel for Tuchel, I really noticed his growth as a manager during our time and I'm disappointed because we absolutely played Spurs off the park, showing the 'possible' and his wish to get Raheem, turning out to be great so far. Sad that we let Rudi go, in terms of leadership and fire, managers are on the touch line and if the players had half the energy Tuchel did, we'd be far better off, so ultimately the coach is reliant on those on the pitch, leaders which we lack. /rant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZAPHOD2319 4,819 Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 I can still appreciate Tuchel, but honestly playing our players out of position and attempting to make every player a wingback was getting very tiresome. We buy the best players at their positions, we might get the best out of them at those positions. bigbluewillie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAM09 7,062 Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 1 hour ago, milka said: Tuchel’s ideas were no longer transmitting. He’d stopped getting through. It probably didn’t help that some of the players had been talking about his private life, and how he had a younger girlfriend as his marriage fell apart. Sources maintain that Tuchel initially wanted to move away from a fixed number-nine, only to completely go back on that. “He’ll say one thing,” one figure says, “then complain when it is done. Every transfer decision was put past Tuchel. He wasn’t given a single player he didn’t want. This meant he overruled some big deals, including Cristiano Ronaldo and Jules Kounde. (via @MiguelDelaney That answers that. It makes our transfer business even more bizarre & we're stuck with these players for the long haul.
