Graham Potter Thread

[Hot Dawg 17]

I could go on a long fecking rant but I can't be bothered so I'll keep it short fuck off Potter and grow a set of bollocks Boehly

What else would it take to sack this useless cunt?

I think Potter is at the point of no return; he's been manager for a number of months, overseen a full transfer window, and has essentially a full squad to pick from, but our performances get worse each game.

There has to be a time when those making such decisions realise the same thing.

Also had six weeks to gameplan during the World Cup.  Full squad wasn't there but surely had plenty of time to strategize

The argument he didn't have a full squad is confusing to me when during that time he could of materialized coaching strategies and tactics in an effective manner so that when the players did come back he could efficiently get his ideas across. 

Fuck knows what he did during the World Cup.

Even 2-3 weeks ago I thought we shouldn’t fire him, 2 sacking in one season is a new level. Also, not too much exciting names are available, probably they don’t want to take the team in March either.

But at this point, we must sack him. These results are just rock bottom. 2 wins in in 15 games, 1 goals in 6 games, hopeless attack and rotation. Truly shocking. I don’t think I ever saw a top team with top players going so low.

'The players were there on the pitch, giving everything. I have no complaints with how they were,' he went on to add.

'Of course, [it tests my relationship with the club’s owners]. I know where my responsibilities lie if results aren’t good enough which they aren’t, you cannot rely on support forever. My job is to keep going and change the moment for the team. They are hurting and it is a tough moment for us. They want the results to get better.'

Graham believes he is the coach to turnaround our poor Premier League form.

At the 7:01 mark he starts comparing himself to Arteta.

Come on. That comparison is for others to make. Not Potter himself.

If you start using that excuse yourself and hide behind it, how can it NOT go wrong?

Potter or no Potter this season is over. Can't expect any respected manager to come in now. Every italian manager was successful here. Maybe to look there again? I do like Flick and Enrique as well. 

Don't like the revisionism about Tuchel. He was part of 3 different PL campaigns and showed around 75 points and top4 is his maximum. Plus I'd like to believe pragmatic coaches like him, Mourinho and Conte are not welcomed here anymore. Club direction it seems is to always play on front foot. This should be priority.

Job too big and who on earth thought a long contract was wise..its sad cause what were our rivals are going from strength to strength and we're making new rivals down in this half...

It's becoming apparent that he and his team lack any notable tactical understanding.

The same was probably said before Di Matteo or Tuchel took over. We're still in with a great chance of potentially causing another upset with what is arguably a better squad than either of the previous teams in terms of quality.

I'm just unsure about the candidates that have been mentioned.

Maybe we shouldn't have brought in that many new signings in one transfer window.   It's not like adding Mudryk and Madueke was absolutely essential in January....

At this point, the club will have to look at sacking Potter as there is no other option.  It's bad enough letting the worst defense in the league rock up to Stamford Bridge and walk away with 3 points but then in a derby against the club we all hate so much, the players can't even score a goal and they put up that sort of pathetic performance.
