Potter may well be good at working with average players and the odd flair player and building a system that works with them but I'm yet to be convinced he can build and play a side which includes strong personalities and genuine talent that only shines in certain setups.He was a huge flop at Chelsea...

The football is disjointed and so so slow. No pace or invention.  I'll be pleased when this is over. Honestly cant say that there are any good signs under these manager. Still give up soft goals and even more shot shy. Coufal played his heart out today. I would have loved to have seen him score. Fab...

I think most of us can see where this is likely going to go. Almost certain relegation next year. We are going to have a huge fire sale, pension off the rest of the fringe players and end up with a team of average new players who have been picked by Sullivan and his mates with some cheap kids mixed ...

Good summary Nutsin. Potter reverted to a back 4 and got central midfield wrong relying on the slowest double pivot central midfield in the Premiership. A back 3 seems a better fit but also when Paqueta dropped deeper we had 3 in the central mid and stopped Brentford having so much space to run int...

I’d bin 7 of those starters at the end of the season. Areola Coufal Emerson JWP Soler Paqueta Kudus All are a waste of space  Agree, I'd add more to that. The rot started under Moyes and we are an anti football side that cant even muster a performance against the bottom side who are relegated. I'd ...

And how fucking shit is Kilman? Blimey. It's a good job we have got Mavropanos at the moment, because he takes the heat off him. I think it's the price tag that stops everyone proper going in on him, but he has been appalling, especially of late. In fact, it's debatable who's shitter out of him and...

Another dire performance. Lucky really the scoreline  wasnt bigger. We dont create chances and we have no system I can see. I do wonder if Potter is going to turn out a fraud. If we are still watching football like this at the beginning of next season he is going to be under a lot of pressure. 

First half we saw our achilles heel - being pressed and not being able to play it out and break the press. Everton couldn't keep it up though. I thought Everton were the better side first half. Second half was much better from us, controlled the ball and just lacking the quality to finish off a move...

Thoroughly disappointing display again. It was clear it wasnt working but we stuck with it. None of the subs had a positive impact and our defense was overworked. Totally dominated in midfield and few chances we had were wasted. Closer to an own goal. Same old story. Teams press us and we cant play ...

Instant reaction is that there is something to build on but that lack of creativity or cohesive play made for a pretty dull affair against a really poor side that the ref seemed to take pity on. The influence of Cresswell and Ward Prowse was noticable. Everything was involving Cresswell in the first...

Doesn't quite deserve his own thread but a big shout for Cresswell yesterday.  Has never let us down with his effort and commitment and whislt his ageing legs mean he isn't the player he was I really don't get some of the hate for him as he has been a loyal servant to the club and I am pretty sure ...

He was really good player before Man Utd got him. Kind of rotted a bit there, played in patches, wasnt really an established starter. Seems to have found some confidence in our team. He doesnt always have an amazing game but does stand out and has shown he's not just a good defender but he has good ...

Let's see how he can do with this squad and with a full summer transfer window. It's clear some will want out or be forced out. I'm afraid we are going to lose our best players as they will want European football and we are a long way from that. We also have a few that their careers are coming to an...

Dont feel as connected as I did but then its changed. People I used to go with have dispersed around the country and have either got health issues or kids draining what little they have, the community around the ground no longer exists. A soulless stadium with a overpriced shopping centre in the mid...

Another poor performance. Dreadful in first half. Looked like a pub side. Better in the second but never looked like causing a problem. No heart or leadership. Games go by without any positive periods of play. I think this could be one of the worst sides for years. Absolute relegation material. Kilm...

I think Managers are always struggling with this notion that someone else buys players and then expects them to get them to work. There is more than statistics involved for sure. Moyes was a dinosaur, didn't have a range of tactics, didn't want to work outside the local market and favoured 'experien...

Rest of the season we can hopefully see whether the young players can break into the team. Potter has shown he is not afraid to use them. I would have preferred a centre back or better midfield option but he is clearly giving JWP and Soler a chance to adapt to his system.  This season is a bust. Hop...

Dont mind him as an option. A really wanted us to buy him a couple of seasons ago. Was looking one of the best all round striking talents. He hasnt come back the same player from injury, hasnt managed a run of games and if I'm honest looks lacking in pace, sharpness and confidence. At least Potter k...

Good luck to Everton fans who love watching low possession and low block tactics. Honestly that's not entertaining in any way and I wouldnt pay my money to watch it. 30 percent possesion and 3 shots on goal today. When they start losing games playing this way which they will then the fans will also ...

threesixty The problem is you can do all this in the 1st half but you chose to play it safe. Potter shouldn’t go down this road. Loppy and Moyes did this, it doesn’t work. Start the game like you want to beat the team your up against rather than just “exist”. It does not work in this league.       ...

Well you can't say he won't give youth a go .     Dont see why we dont give the Brazilian kid a go. Depth of the squad seems poor once you get a couple of injuries. Its disappointing to see such negative football again. Potter needs a bit of time but we have been really poor in his first couple of ...

I think a lot of this is Potter saying, this is all i have to work with.  ​​​​Soler on,  im still positive about getting a result.      Or that the only way to reduce conceding with these players is to play this way. If the defenders are not good enough to be more attacking then we need better defe...

Manager has gone to the negative football playbook to try and scrape points. The previous manager at least had a team that would get shots on goal. This looks like a Moyes team just sitting there waiting to concede. Disappointing when the opposition  isnt all that. Maybe he will change it for last 2...

I had fabianski at more fault than mav for those goals.  By a fuxking distance  Agreed but Mav is the latest whipping boy. We need a new goalkeeper in the summer, I like the lad at Sheffield United. Yes, we need a new goalkeeper. We have done for a while. That said, for the first goal Mavropanos ju...

That was a terrible game where we played for 10 mins and were outplayed the rest of it. Scored 2 goals that were absolute gifts into empty nets and still tried to throw it away with two terrible soft goals. Very little quality and I dont think we had any shots on goal other than the goals. I hope P...
