[Albion] Does Potter have a clue ?

[TottonSeagull]

I don’t think he thinks the crowd are at fault at all...let’s face it you don’t like Potter ..obvious when you referred to him as a clueless prick at HT last week

Have you listened to the interview? It’s not the first time he has implied that the crowd were on his back.

Nope, I don’t rate Potter and do believe he will take us down. The football is no real improvement on last year.

Oh yes I have and I don’t think he’s implying that at all

You obviously think he is doing a good job. Fair play to you.

The race to the bottom is ON! Can we catch Norwich? Yes, yes I believe we can if Potterball continues to his revolutionary work (“pass, pass, backwards, pass, pass, up to the halfway line, turn, pass, pass, pass...OH! Proppers given it away and the Albion have taken yet another sucker punch ...it really is a mystery when you look at those possession stats isn’t it, 98.6% of the ball and yet they trail 3 nil”)

The Potter Police are going to get you!

I thin’ you are drawing conclusions that aren’t there...I just don’t think he is blaming the crowd

He’s definitely Emperor in new clothes. I do not rate him at all. Not at this level. Where’s the evidence exactly that he was ever going to succeed beyond vain hope? Nobody dislikes him as a person. But we’ve been sold a pup with all this new scientific way of doing things. He’s a Poundland Wenger.

He could still be brilliant. He just seriously underestimated the value of a settled team. I have faith next year he’ll get it right, if we stay up. Too much tinkering has cost him, you can’t maintain confidence with that approach.

 

[Dorset Seagull]

I’ve just heard Watford fans saying we battered them & they were lucky to get a point. They reckon they’re going down.

My Watford neighbour called it a half each which was about right I think

I think the problem is that we have stopped playing the Potter way. At the beginning of the season we played high up the pitch and took the game to the opponents. Now we've gone back to cowering in front of our own penalty area and passing around with no penetration until we lose the ball cheaply.

The exceptions are Alzate and Maupay, who both seem to want to attack the opposition. Solly March looks scared to take players on nowadays. Trossard looks like a world-beater for about five minutes and the laziest luxury player imaginable the rest of the time. And what Bernardo is supposed to have done wrong to let Burn straight back into the team is anybody's guess. I think we're desperately in need of the fresh enthusiasm that Lamptey and Ally Mac should bring.

Agree with some of your points.

Excellent comment about Bernardo. He’s a specialist RB who’s also good with the ball, in the main he’s played well since his return eg my MOTM against Villa. This smacks of an inexperienced Potter, tinkering for excitable changes sake. Don’t fix what’s not broken.

how else would you interpret what he said? it's not the first time he's called out our support and fair enough, cos right now we're not great but still, seemed a bit off. he really doesn't like us right now.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Yes he does you winging piece of....... I can't really be bothered

Was tempted to start a thread entitled 'If we showed second half intensity every first half we'd be mid table' but can't be arsed.

Just off to murder my family and burn down my house with me in in, in rightous immolation.

Oh, hang on. No, no I'm not.

Greyhound, only decent player till Maupay, Alzate and Ali J came on. They were all good.

Duffy was utter shitehouse, and Mooy was well off. Propper an accident waiting to happen, Gross clueless.

Potter's plan was fine. He was let down.

But he sounds in interview like Peter Cook, talking about how someone was showing out, dahn the lav, if any of you know that sketch. Slightly perplexed but not sufficiently outraged, in the face of 120% tomfoolery.

Respect where a NSC’er has the courage to criticise the performances of Gross and Propper. The untouchables.

I like Graham but as each week and game goes by I just think the fella is winging it. I think he is unsure of his best 11, mixes it up for sake and just hopes for the best. Seems like it to me

My main gripes are why the hell was Bernardo dropped - GP is ruining players morale if they play well and still can’t keep the shirt ? and why wasn’t Lamptey on the bench ?
Aside from that, it is blatantly obvious to me that we can’t afford to have both Gross and Trossard in the starting lineup - they are both luxury players and it feels like we are carrying them both for large parts of the game. Trossard flatters to deceive with no end product and Gross is a passenger until he gets the ball at his feet. Should have sacrificed one of them to play Maupay with Murray.
