I do think Chelsea had no idea why they wanted him other than it looked successful from us, his whole appointment was a mess, and Chelsea really didn't look into anything, they had no football people at the club at the time, other than Tuchel. It was a business appointment, because Brighton were making money.
He had Trossard. He gave Mitoma his debut and started blooding him
Against Forest Green Rovers.
Oh no! What is the club going to do about it?
No, against Newcastle in the second game of the season, when he created a great late chance that Gross spurned in a 0-0 draw. He came on as a sub against West Ham, then made his starting debut against Forest Green. RDZ also used Mitoma as a sub for his first six games, giving him his first Premier League start in his seventh game in charge, against Chelsea (good game that)
Burning your phone is a little OTT …unless of course it’s Android based then I’d totally understand
I didn't say the club *should* do anything. I appreciate my opinion matters not to them, or indeed others on here, but I was just giving my personal stance.Oh no! What is the club going to do about it?
Well, I’ve already printed out a faux season ticket on my HP inkjet - mark me, I’ll be burning it in the back garden up in Alnwick come the big KO.
Exactly. Potter only started Mitoma, our breakout player last season, in a league cup game.
How very Chelsea.............
I like the "potter pyre" bit. I would prefer to see it more as: "a conflagration created by consummate, club cock-ups"

Agreed this is all sounding very Chelsea from some fans, shame
I for one cant wait for the 34 minute long Youtube interview and resulting various Sky Sports & podcast appearances from PBOBE, detailing just how wonderful his *I mean our* succession planning is- "Graham has always been our number one choice". As well as, of course, reminding us its a difficult transfer market ahead of selling Mitoma & Gross and replacing them with a 17 year old from the Albanian 4th tier
I like to think Harry is proud of us all, in his own small way.I like the "potter pyre" bit. I would prefer to see it more as: "a conflagration created by consummate, club cock-ups"
(Harry Wilson's Tackle would be proud of me!
Oh jeezus. People want to see what they want to see don't they. What you are suggesting is Potter should have dropped one of MacAllister, Gross, Caicedo, Lallana, March, Welbeck or Trossard from the team that won away at Manchester United for the first time in our 100 and whatever year HISTORY, to play someone who has just turned up at the club and was still learning our system, rather than starting his Albion career on the bench and gradually blooding him. He appeared as a sub in 4 of Potter's 6 games, and then appeared as a sub in RDZ's first 6 games, before he finally got his start.
