Potter is a nice guy, but right now has become a little bit full of himself, and a little hurt at not being loved still by the fans he rejected. He kept telling us, and now Chelsea fans, how you have to suffer sometimes but you learn from it, you learn from mistakes etc. we just want him to get...
It does seem that this raid on Brighton for it's key staff is being used as an opportunity, more than seen as a problem by the club. My biggest concern now is that it is starting to look like Potter is a good warm up act for De Zerbi, I can see them making an approach for him in a few months...
There is no really good result possible, 0-0 please, but if there has to be a winner Newcastle, with Cucurella scoring an own goal hat trick, before being subbed in the 18th minute.
It's really difficult for us to judge his qualities based just on who has come in, recruitment does seem to be better over time, but is this due to him refining what he does, or having better assistants, or us being an established PL club and better able to sign players we want, or just a lucky...
"Eventually it clicked and, despite how some people seem to be re-writing it, the team and the performances were fantastic."
RDZ will not face the same level of animosity if he moves on, unless he gives us 3 seasons of looking like we are about to start competing at the top end of the table...
That sounds like f*** all, but would double the average wholesale price. I think the efforts are going into storage of renewable generated power. Carbon capture is one thing, storage is another, and most carbon capture is sold and used in industry, ending up in the atmosphere anyway. We just...
Potters ego ballooned whilst here, I think De Zerbi already has a large ego, but he has probably had it all his adult life and can handle it. I think Potter never really had much of an ego, but got high on all the plaudits and now he is on a bit of a come down he has never experienced before...
I thought I saw Boehly statement about that which said something like they expect to be in the top 4, but not being in the top 4 this season would not necessarily mean that Potter was in trouble.
He is at risk if he does not have them in the top 4, and fan pressure could make the difference if...
I think possibly not, but if he did he would have certainly have done it with more grace, he is a proper Gent.
On a charm offensive again I see :ROFLMAO:
There were 10(ish) home games, where we did not score, but not for consecutive home games. We din't score at all in 9 home games total last season, scored 9 goals in the last 3 home games, 10 in the 16 other home games, and 4 of those were in the first 3 games.
The start was decent, the finish...
Yeah, that irked me a bit too, it's fair to say he had a lot of the hard work behind him at Brighton, had the squad understanding what he wanted, the youth squads being coached in the same way, got shot of the players he couldn't work with etc. But he made it sound like he was just coasting...
