[Albion] Should TB sack Potter?

[BrightonLoyal]

No of course not

 

[Justice]

Explain this entitled you keep going on about, you would have a point if it was free to watch the Albion it’s not. Value for money probably not excitement definitely not.

 

[dazzer6666]

Do either of the two outers have a suggested replacement?

 

[BadFish]

What are the expectations that are not being met? I mean how well do those calling for his head expect us to be doing? Premier league positions do not stray far from the wage budget league, so Potter is being criticised for not punching further above our weight?

Disappointing run of form at the moment but losing to Liverpool is hardly unexpected. Maybe see what happens for the rest of the season.

 

[portslade seagull]

Not sack him but actually back him and give him a better hand

 

[London Irish]

I may have to watch from afar, I fear a ban

The whinging is embarrassing imo, I know our place

One of the people I go to games with wants him gone too

Lol - have you informed said person how embarrassing he is yet?

Back him with cash to spend and give him one more season. If it's the same old shite then he must go.

Several sides would be delighted to be able to have available the funds we have spent on players since in PL

But I admit to be intrigued to see the work of a new coach who plays counter attacking football. We haven’t seen an effective Albion form of that for ages. [Likely to be after Potter walks to manage Leicester or Everton].

This. We're so so bloody slow in transition. Potter has transformed our play, dramatically. We can and do play some lovely one touch and intricate footie.

But, and this is a big but, we need to step it up to the next level and turn 'pretty' into 'effective'.

Imo like of course.

Not sure if Potter is the man to do it. Hopefully he will learn and step it up, either himself or get in an attacking coach who can do it. Either way, Tony will give him so much time and either pull the plug or GPott will step up and get it right.

Potter is lauded for his tactical flexibility.

Assuming he’s still with us in August, I’d love it if he tried something substantively different eg a counter attacking form of football. With the club giving him the attacking players to do it.

But, no, posters on NSC know far more about football than Klippety. Far more.

Do you think Klopp has Brighton’s best interests at heart?

You didn’t to the Villa and Everton home games?

 

[El Turi]

No way, even if we go down (which we won’t). It’s a minor miracle we haven’t been relegated so far considering our budget comparative to most teams in the league.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Simple and possibly divisive but I don’t give a feck tbh

Too many entitled fans on here imo

He would be mad to sack him even if you dont rate him, someone would pay for him.

 

[banjo]

Where’s Big Sam when you need him.

When he was appointed he was introduced as being able to "build on the solid foundations laid by Chris Hughton." So far it's somewhere between a couple of bricks and a small bungalow, rather than a luxury tower block. We had stories of being a regular top ten side and qualifying for Europe from the brass, though never, ever with a timescale on it. Given that we're now worse at home that we were under Hughton you do have to ask yourself, at least in passing, if what they meant was they'd get in GP to give a few U23s a game or two and get the "loan out to sell" scheme flying and then get another coach to actually deliver the good stuff.

Clearly you weren't at any of the four Brighton Stoke 0-0s in Division One in the old first division, where both teams could have played for a month or two without scoring or even looking likely to score.

 

[studio150]

In terms of sacking Potter NO, stupid idea.

Just look at the likes of Charlton when their fans foolishly demanded a change.

 

[BluesRockDJ]

Jurgen he say NO

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/av/football/60722556

Of course he does..............guaranteed three points here every season !!

Of course I have, he takes as much notice of my ramblings as you do
