Graham Potter - Poll

[Trowel]

I don't think Potter is the right manager for Everton, but it's easy to forget his underwhelming record at Chelsea was heavily impacted by the overbearing management of Todd Boehly.

Blah blah media, blah, clickbait, blah blah, speculation, blah, fills columns, blah, lazy reporting, blah

Surprised anyone bothers to read the media, yet alone believes it.

We'll know when it's announced… and the results will astonish you. Click below

Dunno mate if we are - for any manager wanting a long term project we go into the summer with pretty much hardly any baggage remaining from the host of different managers and DoFs remaining.

New stadium custom built to be one of the best grounds in England if not Europe, prospect of major investment in the playing staff - owners who don't seem to be ones sticking their nose in but letting the people they appoint run that side of things.

I feel west ham are more like we were around the time of sacking Koeman etc,

Hope so, but all of that is contingent on staying in the premier league. That's definitely not a gimme at the moment and I suspect is putting candidates off.

There'll be people here voting for Potter who chased Martinez out of town for passing the ball.

Not what Martinez was chased out of town for, though, was it?

My thinking is any manager coming in whose off put by the prospect of going down should not be a consideration, they should be backing themselves to be good enough to get the points needed.

Hopefully in discussions TFG assure January backing for the amount possible within PSR as well to make the job a bit easier.

Wasn't it?

They wanted the big hoof and they got it back.

That doesn't seem to have had an impact on the current Chelsea manager.

We play like we do in part because I do t actually think Dyche can cos h beyond a very very basic rudimentary level, it's why if we do try to play front foot we look wide open, front foot requires coaching on players dropping into covering positions and being switched on to prevent the counter. That requires working on the tracking grounding on note than fitness and maintaining very rigid positions.

Brighton under Potter never recruited anything other than journeyman type attacking players due to funds in part, if they had have had a couple of semi decent forwards they'd have been pushing on the door of the top 6 every season.

That’s fine but you sort of have to look at it in reverse too if you’re doing that. You can’t say they’d have been great with good strikers without acknowledging that a midfield of bissouma, macallister, caicedo etc was way above anything any other midtable side could put out.

 

[Doc Sick]

I'm not that keen on Potter but if we get him in then sack Dyche that would be preferable to sacking Dyche then starting our search for his replacement.

We just had Christmas, one of the best films It's a Wonderful Life.

When it goes wrong (James Stewart) wishes away his life. He ends up in a place called Pottersville.

Can't wait.

For what it's worth mate I think we will hire Potter, think he was always the front-runner and it's more West Ham who've tried to jump ahead with a move now wears we wanted to do the change this summer coming.

Question now is so we want him enough and dies he wants the job enough to come in earlier with obviously more risk to both parties.

West Ham offering only a contract till the end of the season seems weird as well, given he's friends with Brady's husband it doesn't bode well in terms of how much they really want him given Potter has apparently been waiting for the right offer before returning.
