The problem is mate when you say it works for the players in what way? What’s he gonna do differently that Silva or Ancelotti couldn’t do with them? If Ancellotti couldn’t get a tune out of them the best of times and they didn’t up their game, they’re not gonna take some bum manager who’s done nothing in his career of significance seriously are they?
I think this is going to be the case with almost all of the options linked. People genuinely underestimate what a bad bunch of eggs we have in our ranks with this current squad.
I believe it would work with the players and Brands which is an opinion of mine still to be proven
In as far as Potter , I like his style of play , has done good work with Brighton has lot of potential IMO he is a different direction than past choices which could be the answer .
As far as bad eggs - agreed still have a number to move on , we have done recently still WIP and not going to happen overnight
I really wanted Ancellotti to work , we have been thru a number of managers in a relative short space of time its not an ideal place we find ourselves , and whomever comes in has a massive job on their hands .
