deep blue Posted 29 October 2021 Share Posted 29 October 2021 4 hours ago, CrispinLA in Texas said: So you guys want Potter to resign from his job, and Leicester pay millions in compensation to Brighton and then pay double or triple what he earned at Brighton. If he's not loyal with them, then he probably jump ship in two years time from Leicester But we would get more millions first, for compensation for Brendan leaving, and the wage we would offer Potter would be less than what Brendan's on, so we would be quids in. And Brendan would have "jumped ship" in just the same way. Most managers have only a short span at a club. Clubs expect that, and have to deal with the situation.

I think we should go a manager who has had a past link with Leicester, and the only one I can think of was Esteban Cambiasso. Many Leicester players have said that he was a major influence in improving their game in 2015. Some here want Potter, but he's already got a job managering Brighton, so he's not available. Brendan has a job "managering" Leicester but there's still pages of thread talking about his successor! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post UpTheLeagueFox Posted 30 October 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 30 October 2021 Some of the negativity around Potter is daft. He's an up and coming manager who's done well at Brighton. He would appear to be a good fit for us. And yes if he does well he'll move on - just as if he doesn't he'll get hounded out. That's the nature of football. Same goes for Rodgers - his stock is high after doing well with us so he'll be linked elsewhere, higher up the chain. Same goes for players who move up the chain when they've done well. Any club anywhere (bar perhaps some of the European elite) have the same issues. It's the football food chain - some however think we're exempt from it! 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cadno'r Cymoedd Posted 30 October 2021 Share Posted 30 October 2021 BR would leave at the drop of a hat if offered the gig at Manchester United. It is what he does. Not blaming him.

You also have to be realistic about who we could attract, Mancini or Conte would be great but it's never going to happen. I would have thought our astute owners had a potential successor list compiled a long time ago which will fluctuate. However, firstly I don't see anyone better than Rodgers out there for us at the moment but if it did happen, Potter for me could be a very decent option.

We’re another level to the club we were back then. Potter will have to achieve top 10 finishes with Brighton to even be on a list if we were searching. This is only my opinion of course but if Rodgers left tomorrow I honestly don’t think Potter would be a shout. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were mid table Championship, MON took us to a whole new level. He'd got promotion from non league and division four but did that suggest he could do what he did with us? No. Potter might not be the right man for us but writing him off, as many are doing, seems a little premature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Flair Posted 30 October 2021 Share Posted 30 October 2021 I wasn't impressed with Brighton until this season, in fact I was actually angry with them. They played the most tepid and airy football without getting results and yet were praised for it. I'd have respected them more at the time for switching it up a bit but they've stuck to their principles and are recruiting better and improving. Potter is evidently an interesting coach, he's modern in his thinking and techniques and he's done well within reason at most clubs. I hope he keeps on improving as it's great to see some good English coaches/managers after years of mediocrity IMO. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
urban fox Posted 30 October 2021 Share Posted 30 October 2021 Quite a few seem to cheerleading for Cambiasso if BR were to leave. Never happen while Vardy is still on the books. He has openly stated that he did not like his attitude and they never got on. Also totally unproven as a manager/coach. There are many players who were leaders/captains on the field but couldn't cut it as managers. Not saying that he couldn't do a job but i think the club would want to appoint somebody with far more experience, not based purely on sentiment for someone who played one season for us. Maybe when he has cut his teeth elsewhere and started build a decent CV as a coach, then he may be considered and would be a popular choice with a lot of the fans 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potter is a little bit of a myth in my view at the moment in the last two season his had done marginal better then C Hughton see my early post and has the same win ratio as Bruce at Newcastle. 19 hours ago, coolhandfox said: His win ratio at Brighton is 28.9% (97 games), to put that in prospective Steve Bruce at Newcastle is the same with 28.9% (97 games), and Chris Hughton 23.6% at Brighton. Brighton finishes under Potter 16th (41 pts), 15th (41 pts), under Chris Hughton 17th (36 pts), 15th (40 pts), So in two season he hardly improved there league finishing or point total. However he has improved their style. Yes they have had a good start lying 5th with 15pts after 9 games, but Southampton were top after 8 games last season with 16 pts. Also their wins have came against Watford, Burnley, Brentford and a very luck one against us. Be interesting to see where Brighton finish this season, I've got a feeling it they will sink back to the bottom half. No doubt he's side play good football, and maybe with better players he will be successful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Kopfkino Posted 30 October 2021 Share Posted 30 October 2021 Most managers’ demise comes about because they start conceding too many goals and the defence goes to pot. There’s not a sport out there where success isn’t built on foundations created by your ability to defend. If you can’t defend, you can’t be successful. 36 goals conceded in the last 20 games in all comps is a team that is hopeless defensively, it’s a relegated side’s defence. He’s banged on about Jonny Evans being the saviour but he clearly isn’t. Does he look like he has any idea how to solve it? I’m sure Ndidi will be listed as the next saviour. He said after Palace he needed to look at our structure and why they were able to arrive at the box so easily, whatever he concluded was clearly wrong. The same issues every week of not being able to defend, struggling to play through periods when we’re under pressure, no intensity from the start, takes until half time to get the team going. The same issues every week are a sign of the person at the top underperforming. A Man Utd team who are similarly easy to play against and a Brentford team lacking the quality to finish us off, unlike Arsenal, are all that stop the table looking pretty grim.

EastAnglianFox Posted 30 October 2021 Share Posted 30 October 2021 (edited) Needs to start facing some awkward questions about how we start a game week in week out and the complete lack of motivation to take it to a team from the off. It has to be down to him, no way would the players just ignore his instructions every single game Edited 30 October 2021 by EastAnglianFox 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farrington fox Posted 30 October 2021 Share Posted 30 October 2021 Tbh I’m getting a bit fed up and irritated by Brendan. The continuing failure at defending set pieces is down to coaching. Sort it out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
