People turning their nose up at Potter are probably the same ones who thought Akanji wasn't good enough for us 

I think it’s more whether he’s right for us. He’s clearly very good and would be an absolute coup for the Championship. I wonder how much he benefited from the strong set up at Brighton whereas everything behind the scenes at us is currently a shambles. 
 

So yeah, more whether Potter and the club are right for each other at this time. 
 

But he is definitely the standout name and we would simply have to step up as a club to make sure he does get the support around him to do what he’s good at!

He turned us down once already didn't he?

 

Why would he join after relegation?

 

We are pissing in the wind this is unrealistic.

Unless someone's taking him on during the Summer, you could say this about any Prem job that comes up during the season. 

Exactly.

 

He could take over West Ham if they lose the UECL final and see them slump like we did.

Imagine getting binned by Chelsea and then having the relegation of us against his name in the same season

He turned us down before because it was straight after being sacked at Chelsea and he wanted a break after all the abuse he and his family got

As opposed to taking a break, rebuilding a relegated team and taking them back to the Premier League. Entirely sensible career move.

Imagine being binned by Chelsea and his next job is a relegated side.

 

No chance.

Massive risk for Potter, goes wrong he's not getting another PL job.

No it's not a Lampard situation. His work with Brighton would see him at least get another shot at a mid-range club.

A relegated side, that he could quite easily have back up within a year?

I could be wrong, but I think he might be a WUM.

Has Smith and Co gone now? Surely the club would make a statement at least thanking them for taking on the utter shit show they handed them.

Its a massive risk and a huge project for anyone coming in.

 

I suppose it depends on how the club sell the rebuild job to him.

Potter transformed Brighton into an excellent attacking team, with basically a squad of unknowns

And no real striker. They sold Maupay and scored more goals 😁

He turned us down straight after the Chelsea job. He might see us now as a good proposition.

Weird they haven’t announced anything regarding him yet. 
It’s like we’re trying to find someone else but might go back to him if nobody any better wants the job.

[Buzzell]

Keeping Smith and co in the lurch just incase the better option turns us down

Nothing about that account suggests he's a WUM. I'm going to make some food really quickly then go for a poo so I'm ready to read what info he's got. 

[Paninistickers]

I'm split on Potter. He's a root and branch guy and will captain the ship expertly like Pearson did. Except more likeable and unlikely to wish death on his own supporters. 

 

Like Pearson though, I'm not sold on him tactically. He kinda sets the team up but he appeared unable to solve onfield problems in real time. Hence Brighton being unable to score.

 

However, Marsch turned us down on (I suspect) the chaos that he felt the club would be in upon relegation. If Potter takes it on, it's kinda reassuring that he sees a strategy.
