That's just not an attractive proposition for a manager who has lofty ambitions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MPH Posted 12 June Share Posted 12 June (edited) 3 minutes ago, Tommy Fresh said: Perhaps he fancies the risk, we go down and it'll be because of the points deduction, if he keeps us up though his reputation grows even more I dont see why he would turn down some decent prem jobs and even some top European jobs to go through that... I mean, if any of this is even remotely true, it might suggest we will be unlucky in our persuit of him... Despite that, Potter has been linked with several managerial roles within the last 14 months, including Ajax, Napoli and Nice. Now, the 49-year-old is on the hitlist at old club Brighton as they seek a replacement for Roberto De Zerbi, and Leicester, who are preparing to lose Enzo Maresca. Although Potter is being paid well during his gardening leave from Chelsea, his key reason for delaying his return to management is the potential of succeeding Gareth Southgate in the England dugout, according to The Sun. Potter is also an option at Manchester United if Sir Jim Ratcliffe decides to replace Erik ten Hag. Edited 12 June by MPH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post OldBob Posted 12 June Popular Post Share Posted 12 June (edited) Great PR for the club if they get Potter to be fair. The media love him. Apart from that, dreading his appointment. Would go far as saying, I’d even prefer the likes of Warnock and Big Sam. He’ll appease the football connoisseurs on here but mark my words, this man is Puel with an English accent. It’ll be side to side, slow ‘progressive’ football. The 5 minute highlight reels might look great but for us fans in the stadium, who have to watch the full game, it’ll be a soulless watch.

Its alright Bob. Will save all the good bits from 85 minutes onwards when you are on your way home to watch Strictly. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He (or whoever comes in) can't lose. If he keeps us up, he's a legend and a miracle worker. If we go down with him at the helm, it won't be his fault. The excuses for taking us down are already written for him - not his fault. If we don go down, he'll probably stay in the role, as it'll be viewed as 'part of the plan' 'expected', he'll be the man to bring us back up. He'll also be well paid, and have no problem leaving us, should one of the bigger fish come calling 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
