FA Cup 22/23

[taupe]

Quietly hoping Chelsea get hammered. 

[Fox92]

Will never tire of Chelsea getting hammered.

[Vacamion]

 

Mahrez plucking that from the air and delicately laying it to Walker was under-appreciated in that commentary.

 

 

[South Shire Fox]

Nothing will ever be more cringe then commentators calling Man City ‘City’ 

[Voll Blau]

Mad.

I’ve got to a point where I hate watching matches on TV they show every minute tackle, ref decisions in slow mo so you see all the mistakes: then you see all the things the players get wrong in detail and replays I find myself shouting at the screen and getting angry nothing like I am when watching at games. VAR is a pain at games and TV but with the TV you see all the illogical reasoning behind so many laws of the game. 
 

Then there’s all the replays on none events, following players and the camera on managers and people in the stand all while the games is carrying on.

The pundits who hate it now are probably the same ones who wanted VAR in as they thought it would be perfect and then nothing would need to be debated .

 

No one asked the fans ofcourse .

Pains me to say it but Man City are just too good. 

[Fear Of The Fox]

Regarding Potter, I said last week that he's getting the sack after 2 losses against ManCity. But Arteta's sudden success might prove good for Potter and they'll stick with him? I don't know. They suffer a lot of injuries also like us. I still believe that the majority of British managers are very stubborn and outdated tactically. 

[Sol thewall Bamba]

Would love us to try to get Potter here when he gets sacked. Shame Model FC can't afford to sack the manager. 

[David Hankey]

Chelski looking more like Leicester.

Will depend on what the owner is like with managers who underperform which we haven't been able to see yet

 

Tuchel was mainly sacked due to falling out with the new owner

[Lcfc-1992]

Potter won’t last the season

[David Hankey]

This could end up 6-0, I hope so.

So why would we want him?

Like I’ve said before, it doesn’t damage his stock. Much better coaches go to Chelsea and fail. He isn’t ready and anyone can see it isn’t an environment conducive to a manager like Potter.

If this ends 6-0 Potter is gone surely? Was Sarri sacked after the 6-0 thumping from ManCity in 2019?

[coolhandfox]

Still not sure how the ref didn't see the hand ball and need VAR was looking straight at it.

[foxes_rule1978]

I think Potter would do a good job for us. 

[taupe]

Are Chelsea a bit crap or are they just being made to look a bit crap?

I think refs are ever more content to not make the tough calls, and wait to see if VAR cleans it up.

[Corky]

Chelsea fans singing about Tuchel.

 

Potter did have these runs of form at Brighton. Still got to prove himself.

His contribution often is; he makes it look so easy.

What do you mean by good job? Just out of my mind without checking Google: Rodgers is the most successful British manager in recent years (trophies, league positions)? If we get Potter what can we achieve more? I'd rather go for a Spanish manager.

But look at how Rodgers has completely ruined our club atm. Everything is grim currently.

I reckon Man City's scouting/training is pretty impressive. Some of their guys, I've not heard of before, or been aware of them being signed, so assume they're not mega bucks buys, yet they're talented technically and definitely don't look out of place. It's a well honed system.
