Graham Potter Thread

[DDA 9,924]

I want him fucking gone. Today was an utter disgrace. Those substitutions would have got him sacked under Roman... who least we forget was the catalyst to all our recent success.. fuck this long term project if this is what we have to endure... pathetic. Absolutely pathetic from top to bottom. I'm trying with all I have to delude myself that this wannabe Potter is going to somehow turn into an Arteta situation but I honestly cannot see it. The team is playing like a mid table team. Gallagher on the wing ?? What the fuck is that all about?? You have a 90m player on the bench who was brought in to play there and you put a center mid there instead?? What the fuck is this?

Just now seeing the Conte explosion today. Wow! Now THAT is the sort of passion and fire we are sorely lacking from our manager. To see that poor performances and poor results make the manager angry and subpar attitudes disgust him.

I would take Conte back with this group we have any day of the week. He would turn this group into a feared beast.

And ironically, Potter would be perfect for a group of pretenders and a club that hopes/dreams/wishes to become a top team rather than believes they are one. Spuds are a club that would be over the moon to finish 4th and Conte isn’t about that life. Potter would work well in that sort of club profile.

Someone tell Potter that he is no longer at Brighton and he needs to rethink his approach to games, especially at home against the teams like  Everton, Leeds.

Against Leeds again he put  all available defenders + RLC , Zakaria and Chalobah  at 1:0 .

This stupid  change  with Gallagher in every game reminds me of what Sarri used to do with Barkley and Kovacic in every game

It's no surprise that Potter was strongly linked to the Spurs role (IIRC, he was keen on finishing the current season at Brighton before discussing the role at Spurs). 

Then out of nowhere, we give him a nice fat contract to manage a top 4 side and he would have been a fool not to accept such a deal. Even if Potter does get told to go at the end of the season due to finishing 10th...he'll get a very nice payout and in a few months, he'll be back to managing a mid table side without any issues. 

As for Conte, that's the first time I've seen a manager go public with a simple message: 'sack me now but you'll still be Spurs, it's in your history'

[Pizy 18,848]

Give Conte this exact squad with a new #9 in the summer and we’d challenge for the title next season or at the very least finish comfortably in the top 4.

We have all the ingredients for a successful Conte team as well as an ownership group for the first time in his managerial career that has ambitions as high as he does.

Useless sack of shite. Fluked some wins Vs awful teams now we are stuck with him for a while. Fraud

Steps forwards..leaps back. We're not getting top 4 this season no where near. Chance to jump to high of of 9th and blew it. 10th where we'll stay and tbh won't be a unflattering postoon

But Potter said it was a step forward after todays joke of a performance, it could have been if he hadn’t insisted in bringing on 3 academy players, when you have Kante and Modryk sat on the bench

It's been six months and I still wonder what the hell in particular is the "long term project" we are supposed to suffer for, as the only thing Potter is instilling here, besides being mid-table, is

throwing shit at the wall and seeing what sticks

The only philosophy I see here is Potter desperately looking for a lifeline that would prove he is capable for the job (which he isn't), not to mention any solid success and not even thinking silverware. I will laugh so hard at all the time-giving Potter god-save-the-queen lovers, babbling about muh bEauTifUl fOOtY, when we will start parking the bus after 1:0 at halftime against relegation teams (and concede anyway, because it worked 15 years ago, now teams actually have to have some tactics).

[TheHulk 2,401]

It looks like he is desperate beyond belief to save his job and sadly Tuchel's tactics and formation gave him a second chance, needs to be sacked asap if we want to have any chance against Madrid.

Still here? Why?
