Popular Post ScrumpyJack Posted 3 June 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 3 June 2023 I’d absolutely love getting Potter in! Great opportunity for both parties to rebuild. Can 100% see him stepping in for Southgate for the England job down the road, but he’s a steady pair of hands. 100% the kind of manager we need, also has enough experience to give Top some much needed steering on footballing matters. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Gazza M Posted 3 June 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 3 June 2023 Not sure about Potter. Feels like Brendan mkii. Can just envisage us on a cold Feb night in Plymouth passing it around our final third 1-0 down as we "chase" an equaliser. Our soft underbelly being shown up again as we silde to 10th. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winteriscoming Posted 3 June 2023 Share Posted 3 June 2023 Potter just makes me think of Sven mark 2. We need a Pearson type for the rebuild/promotion. Not Pearson. For me it’s gotta be Duff. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me it’s gotta be Duff. You can't compare the two. Potter is a much better manager overall and has improved teams. Would Sven been able to do what Potter did at Brighton? Very much doubt it. When Sven came in, he wasn't at the top of the game and his stature was falling. Potter is currently and progressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrispinLA in Texas Posted 3 June 2023 Share Posted 3 June 2023 If it's Potter Top wants.....well so be it....but I'll rather have gone for a up and coming manager from Europe like Knutsen, Jaissle or Moreno (ex Leicester CB who manages Vitoria de Guimaraes in Portugal) all play attack minded football scoring lots of goals and loved by there fans and players 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fox_favourite Posted 3 June 2023 Share Posted 3 June 2023 I still don't see it happening to be honest. I think he'll either go abroad or a team like Palace. Palace has a decent foundation, in the prem, but room for improvement. More stable option than ours. Happily to be proved wrong though!!! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post AjcW Posted 3 June 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 3 June 2023 Where’s all this Duff love in come from? He’s literally spent the week getting rinsed by Josh Windass for leaving the sheff weds Peterborough game early and saying he’d seen enough … turned out well… did their team talk for them in the final! 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nnfox Posted 3 June 2023 Share Posted 3 June 2023 The only way Potter comes to us is if there was some sort of clause in his Chelsea contract that prevents him taking a prem job, otherwise he'd surely walk into a mid table prem job in October for twice what we'd pay him. And I have my reservations about him. Did well at Brighton after the whole back office was put in place, but De Zerbi has taken them forward another step or two.

Wasn’t much of a team talk was it? They were dreadful throughout, 11 a-side and they’re not winning that. Give me the manager who was in charge of the team with 10 men who gave absolutely everything for their club and the fans. That’s what Duff has created at that club, he’s turned a toxic culture into a hard working, all in it together one, and he’s had to build the squad a long the way after they lost a number of their better players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brighton were fourth when he left for Chelsea. They finished sixth. Huge step forward there. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh we are, but not in the championship, and let's face it a little bit of a mess. I suppose it depends if there is money to back him as well to get us up. We will leave him to make decisions, not like Chelsea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
