gdlk 297 Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 Not Enrique with all his tiki-taka shity style.. We saw it under Sarri and didnt worked. mkh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Costa19 858 Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 But Sarri did much more than "shitty" tiki-taka? He won EL and got our wooden legs players to actually play good football at times. Personally, I would have liked to see him stay and get the same backing that Potter got.. Too bad he really wanted to go home to Italy again. That's why I rate Enrique so highly. They fall into the same "coaching category". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sick of hearing this. 3 managers before Nagelsmann couldn't get Havertz to improve. Bloke is simply not made for the Premier League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

Pizy 19,254 Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gdlk 297 Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 (edited) 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 Edited April 3, 2023 by gdlk mkh, Fernando and Strike 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

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.

cosmicway 1,333 Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 (edited) I had a brief look at the premiership table. We have conceded 29 goals. At the top Arsenal 27, City 26, Newcastle 19, Spurs 41, United 37. The top two are just a little bit better defensively, Newcastle is a sort of odd man out with their 41-19, the others worse. So with this defense we could be even first in the table. It's true. The problem is upfront. Only 29 as opposed to Arsenal's 70, City's 71. So Chelsea is a team without attack really. From the new players Joao creates some good impressions but only some, Mudryk is so far a 100% failure. Maybe he has a future and we will be praising him later on but so far 100% fail. But the disease is we are a side without attack. Edited April 4, 2023 by cosmicway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbluewillie 1,974 Posted April 4, 2023 Share Posted April 4, 2023 Couldn't be happier the statue has gone. Don't rush into appointing a new manager, our season is fucked. Wait for a new manager for next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm intested in knowing why people not big on Pochetino. The owner clearly wants long term as well youth in the mix. And Pochetino is perfect with that. Plus with Enzo in the lineup I'm sure Pochetino would love to work him. I see what Todd wants and to me Pochetino ticks all the boxes. They had dropped in quality by the 2022 WC - Still managed a 7-0 win in the opening game. But I liked his Spain team. They had a good 2021 Euros and were the better side in the semifinal vs Italy that went to penalties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
