[Brighton] Graham Potter

[Blue Valkyrie]

Imagine the wailing from fans of a 'big' club if they took a manager from a #TeamLikeBrighton. Lol.

 

[Gwylan]

Wouldn't surprise me if the FA are keeping an eye on him too.

Southgate may need replacing in August.

Yeah, it wouldn't surprise me if he were approached for the England job. I can't see any of the big clubs wanting him

 

[monty uk]

Looking at it from the point of view of where he would fit in, ​he'd be flummoxed at a club with productive strikers.

So Brighton it is then.

Like any of the players if a big club come calling then anything is possible.

However don’t think the big clubs really take punts on managers so would have to do something extraordinary to get on their radar.

Funnily enough had a chat with a former colleague a couple of days ago who is a lifelong Spud (STH and about 5th generation).....lots of chatter at their end about Potter taking over from Mourinho. Had a quick look on their forum - lots of mentions....

They don't seem that keen to me. Finished no higher than Hughton; never got his team even into the top half of the league; pretty football but no end product; couldn't get newly relegated Swansea back up - all the usual cliches! They all agree he would be better than Mourinho though ....................

Anyone think that if we stay up, a bigger club might come in for Potter ? Forget the long contract, not worth the paper it's written on !

Laughing once more at the knee-bowing at the Cult Of Potter. It truly is pitiful

It’s very mixed......and pretty balanced to be fair. It’s basically ‘anyone but Mourinho’

He will manage England I have no doubt

He will manage England I have no doubt

Following in the footsteps of Phil Neville and Sarina Wiegman.

But would he take a step down from the EPL?

We will see who gets the last laugh

For sure

Imho mid EPL football next season, on a bottom 6 budget, would be success.

That’s without looking at the way he’s already improved several young players, or the positive football.

 

[albionalex]

Eddie Howe never got poached and he had far more success than Potter has, so I would be surprised if anyone came in for Potter.

 

[KeegansHairPiece]

For sure

You'll have the last laugh because our manager and team would have failed. Great. At least you will have won on the internet.

I'm sure that post has some meaning to you

Unless you didn't realise what you were implying when you said 'for sure' at who will have the last laugh?

No way, he has us playing impressive football but the results are no more effective that CH, despite a better depth of squad. With us he has proved little (yet), but promise much, can’t see a top club gambling this summer. Hopefully in say two years they will be after him. #teamPotter UTA

If you look at the way we play football, it's pretty different to most other teams in the Premier League. I marvel at the way even teams like Liverpool spend so much time moving the ball around from side to side, mainly getting nowhere - whilst we just seem to pick "simple" passes through the middle, and as a result move the ball from defence to attack much more effectively. I think Potter would work wonders at a team like Spurs - although there would need to be a complete overhaul of the back four. Also, I think he'd do a better job at Arsenal than Arteta. However, neither of those clubs would be interested in Potter until he's get some serious success under his belt. (Arteta got the gig at Arsenal because of his time with Guardiola, and his Arsenal playing career).

 

[Questions]

I have a feeling that a colossal club such as Derby or Wednesday might make a move.

But one of those clubs are massive.

You must be watching a different team to me each week.
