We might be his top choice after the England job. So we'll likely have to wait until Southgate decides whether he wants to continue before Potter gives us a final answer.

kingfox Posted 10 June Share Posted 10 June This is what Potter has played from Swansea through to Chelsea. If he does come, then I’d expect him to alternate between 4-2-3-1 and 3-4-3. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AjcW Posted 10 June Share Posted 10 June Has he definitely binned off John Morris? He seemed like an obvious choice when he was still his agent. But now is it not just a bit awkward? I know others have mentioned his relationship with the club has soured after Maresca but I don't believe that for a second. Surely it would of been easier with JM to get the deal done?

I remember when we went for him after we sacked Rodgers and we knew within like two days he wasnt interested. Obviously not sure when we spoke to him but nothing has been leaked which suggests he’s not at least open to a chat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The manager is going to have his hands tied from the moment he walks in by transfer limitations, a poor squad & a likely points deduction. We don't have any of the right people in place in the boardroom to be able to convince him that they can turn the tide. He'll be on his own from the get-go & he may not want the potential risk to his reputation that a bad campaign with us could have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was one of the few occasions where I've been totally embarrassed by a Leicester performance. The game spoilt a great day in Brighton and Hove It was around then where I completely turned on this ownership - I could not believe they were tolerating that performance. I thought we'd been that bad in that Brighton game that they had no choice but to sack him and it was for the best we'd taken a hammering, but it didn't arrive. I get down the rabbit hole every time I think of that season. Just wind myself up 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The media love him & big him up every chance they get. His teams do not score goal which is a big concern for me. A lot. of his reputation stems from his time at Brighton because their recruiting is so good but het had very little to do with that.. Handsome, well spoken & English !!!

nettle Posted 10 June Share Posted 10 June (edited) 1 hour ago, iancognito said: Have you missed 18 months? Chelsea fired a coach that won them the UCL and Super Cup, appointed Frank Lampard to steady the ship, spent half a billion pounds on 8 year contracted players and misfits and then fired Potter after a few months because the only side they could score past was us with Danny Ward in goal. Potter hasnt worked since. His work at Brighton was eye-catching but let's not pretend we're getting a hot talent here. Cooper gets stick because his body of work is less impressive and " cuz hE's ForRriSt" but he did turn round a Forest side that spent decades in the doldrums and managed to do enough with a cast of 40 unproven or ungelled players to keep them up too. And let's not forget we're not the most attractive bridesmaid right now. Do you think Cooper would get offered a job with the big boys because I don't. Also I'm pretty sure Cooper hasn't worked for a while and no one is beating his door down to offer him a job. Edited 10 June by nettle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gurru991 Posted 10 June Share Posted 10 June 2 hours ago, nettle said: Surely Potter has got a better pedigree than Cooper, the fact that Chelsea gave Potter the managers job must say something Cooper wouldn't get a sniff at any of the top jobs says it all really. Never use the Chelsea / Todd Boehly decision making process as a reference for anything. Potter fitted the clean cut all American image . Boehly has proven he knows nothing about football.
