Matt should seek help.

Not if he gets him going and plays him properly.

Oh give it a rest. Sick of hearing this. 3 managers before Nagelsmann couldn't get Havertz to improve. 

Bloke is simply not made for the Premier League.

He will heal some day for sure.

However I wonder whether Leicester are actually aware of their interest in Potter or it's just a PR stunt of Law-like folks. Not like his Chelsea stint was a best ad for his services and Leicester is still bigger shoes, than Brighton, with rather ambitious take on things.

Honestly, I’d sign up for tiki taka football as long as we signed a bloody striker in the summer. At least we’d have some structure to our play, patterns that can be repeated game after game, moment after moment in matches. If Enrique is the guy I wouldn’t mind boring Barca style smothering teams with aggressive possession and pressing but we need an elite finisher for that to work. He had prime Suarez as his #9 during those successful years. Not anyone near Suarez’s level available to replicate that here.

I guess you havent watched Spain under him, he was using false 9.. 

And if they admired him so much why didnt we went for him but it was Potter. 

Also cant remember a young player who developed under him

The alternative is Morata though....

Potter was chosen by Boehly and Eghbali because they were probably sold on the idea Potter was the next big thing. I doubt we appoint Potter had Vivell, Shields, Stewart, etc had been at the club. 

You could say Umtiti before his knee injury. Think Barca have been pretty poor in the market during his tenure, and La Masia was a little stale.

If Enrique isn’t given control of transfers and could figure out a way to actually play non boring football in the final third, it would be good. But the likelihood is he will want a huge say, as he did at Roma and Barca and likely replicate that boring shite that Spain played.

Knowing the diva soft brat ass players we have this might actually become a problem. 

Yup the Potter appointment did not factor in the fact that it’s not just a job where you’re coaching talented players but also managing egos, convincing top players of your selections.
