He'll put a spell on you
I acknowledge he may not be any better than what we are currently using, but he'd be different and he may not yet have caught the Cowsarsebanjo virus which appears to have infected most of the squad!

He should also be judging players on their performance in matches, where it matters most. What's the point of Maupay and Connolly doing well in training when they are p!ss poor every game and never look lke scoring. Continuing to pick the same underperforming players every game just sends a message that if you play poorly then that's ok, you're guaranteed to keep your place. There's no threat of losing your place, which breeds complacency.

Brighton's Lewis Dunk on the disallowed goal, speaking to Sky Sports: "It's embarrassing, it's a horrendous decision, I said to the ref can I take it, he blew his whistle and I took it. Just because there was so much pressure from the bench. Why doesn't he come and speak to the press like me? Never, they hide behind their bubble.
"I don't think he knew what he was doing. He gave the goal, why did he give it? I don't know why VAR was getting involved, he said 'goal'... you can look on the video if you want.
Had he lost control of the game? "Yeah he did. Fact."

If any manager put pressure on the board he wouldn’t last long in my opinion. Or are you suggesting a Redknapp style demands / transfer policy ?

Does ending a 6 year contract early appeal to TB?

I don’t think confidence is the problem. It’s coolness when a chance comes and a cold certainty about what you’re going to do. Natural goal scorers like Murray, Lineker etc have that. Nobody in our present squad does.

With due respect vagabond (actually not - given you are still spouting the usual shite) - I have repeatedly defended Potter on this forum and opposed calls to sack him when others on here were calling for his head.
And I will repeat that I am not in favour of sacking Potter now despite the fact I think the team is in crisis.
It would be a sad day if four years work trying to build the club in the PL were lost through relegation - and I do not want it to happen. Unfortunately it is a real possibility after this result. We have no way of knowing if Hughton would have kept the team in the PL if he had remained in charge - crystal balls do not exist - and that nonsense is long gone past its sell by date. If the club is relegated it would be a tragedy and the last thing I would be interested in is crowing about something that we do not know would or would not have happened.
Hopefully Potter figures this out in time - because he is not getting it done at the moment.

I appreciate that, but maybe play him behind the striker as an added goal threat or wide in a front 3, just something to pose some sort of danger to the opposition.

Do we know what Mason asked VAR to check and consequently on what grounds did VAR disallow the goal
No point adding my views to the level of our performance, but I think we are entitled to an explanation from the authorities

Dunk had every right to say what he said but he should be having stronger words with our forwards in the dressing room.

From the BBC website sums up our managers lack of passion
VAR then intervened, prompting Mason to run over to the pitchside monitor to review a potential offside and also whether his second whistle had come before the ball had crossed the goalline.
The referee tried to communicate what was going on with the two managers. Sam Allardyce looked confused - the West Brom boss standing with his hands on his head in disbelief - while Brighton's Graham Potter responded with a blank expression.
