Not his fault they didn't win comfortably tonight. They controlled the whole game against a team who outplayed us a couple of weeks ago - but missed some easy chances. 2

Sloth Posted 27 November 2021 Posted 27 November 2021 Brighton are not the flashiest of teams by any means, but they get results and are doing way better than I thought they would. Several teams are this season imo.

surrifox Posted 27 November 2021 Posted 27 November 2021 Potter’s magic can easily be obscured by his shtick of moping around on the touch line looking like a geography supply teacher who has just found out his contract isn’t being renewed 1

It's not his fault they didn't win, but you can guarantee if Rodgers had the same result (dominated, didn't win, miss chances etc) he'd get stick and it'd be his fault. So you don't exactly get any more with Potter than you do Rodgers. In fact I think Potter is someway behind Rodgers in calibre of manager.

Just think if BR left then we could do a lot worse than Potter as a replacement.

coolhandfox Posted 27 November 2021 Posted 27 November 2021 God of football failed to win again. No win in 8 for Potter Soon be sliding down the table.

SpacedX Posted 27 November 2021 Posted 27 November 2021 Also in respect of Graham Potter's record this season, remember we were absolutely robbed of three points by appalling officiating at the Amex in September - some dreadful decisions from Attwell and VAR. Surely some day it's destined for Potter to manage Stoke City. 1

Seriously, I don't get why people are so keen to put the boot into Potter. His team are attractive to watch in my view and he seems like a decent guy. Would be interesting to see what he could do with a bigger budget and better players. 4

Attractive to watch is debatable. Not worth the gamble to see if he could do anything with a bigger budget and better players. I really don't see the fuss. 2

All about opinions.

They have spent 260m in the last 5 years maybe they should have spent it better. I expect them to finish roughly where they have for the last 2 seasons under Potter around 15th or 16th with about 40 odd points. I just don't rate him as highly as some do. He may prove me wrong. 1
