Potter Out

[THUNDERCLINT]

Had enough of this arogrant no mark now.  

11 games, 27% win ratio and 0.66 goals per game.

Either the break clause is true or this flake quits otherwise were proper fucked.

[Massive Attack]

He really couldn't have walked in to a much better non-pressured situation than the moment he did.

Apart from the diabolical state of the inherited squad, curated in part by his money-spunking predecessor 

Kudus - £38M
Fullkrug - £27M
Guilherme - £25M
Todibo - £35M (if we triggered his option to buy)
​​Mavropanos- £19M

That's £144M money spunked by our former head of recruitment. 

And it can even be levelled at him wanting to bring in Alvarez too, although some dispute it being more Nobles man - a joint decision that certainly wasn't Lopetegui's at another cool £35M big ones which would take the grand total up to £179M..

Apart from £40M spent on Kilman I'm struggling to see who else Lopetegui spent millions on in the Squad. I think you're complaining more about the wrong money-spunker.

Tick tock onsideman, it was you who originally brought up the wrong employee for spunking away so much money attributing it to the wrong person...  

[onsideman]

This isn't a discussion around semantics.

You've slated the quality and attitude of the squad - curated in part by your hero, Lopetegui - yet you refuse  to take that into consideration when stating that Potter couldn't have walked into a better situation.

I think we have a dreadful squad.

Potter has been fucking underwhelming, no doubt about that, but you obviously dislike him as much as you had the horn for Lopetegui so I wouldn't expect anything else tbh.

 

[Massive Attack]

But on another thread you've stated that only 4 members of the squad are worthy of their places. Of course you need to include all the metrics, it's a nonsense statement otherwise 

No I didn't, you struggle to pay attention. Where did I say only 4 Squad players are worthy of their places? I said 4 have performed well and showed the right attitude this season alone where others haven't come up to the mark for a number of reasons and aren't all a write off if managed well. Keep up.

Your heads probably still spinning from the list of players that Steidten spunked fantastic money on for little return you avoided to respond to...

So he could have walked into a better situation then?
Make your mind up

14th without a serious threat of relegation with plenty of points to still up for grabs to get in to Europe with zero pressure with the use of most of a Squad that managed to finish 9th only half a season earlier with plenty of backing. Keep up.

[Massive Attack]

He really couldn't have walked in to a much better non-pressured situation than the moment he did. It was all there for him to get us playing some entertaining Football without much fear of relegation and he manages to serve up some of the worst Football seen this season instead. Which is quite some going considering the Premier League this season has never been as dogshit as this one. What a wasted opportunity but not at all surprising. 

[Mad Ferret]

We ended up sacking Moyes and employing the Spanish Moyes, sacking him and employing the English Lopetegui.

Bizarre indeed.

[Eerie Decent]

Exactly where I'm at, Rossal.

If he took over with us in a relegation battle, you could understand us going all out negative, like he has.

Instead, 14th in the league, no threat of relegation because of the 3 diabolical teams down there, an England international forward at your disposal, Kudus, Paqueta, yet he's shut up shop and made us the worst attacking team in the whole league.

Given the last couple of years, he didn't need to do a lot to keep us onside. Play his cuntball away, attack teams at home. Results wouldn't have mattered had we seen him giving it a go at our place, he had the PERFECT situation.

Absolutely baffling.

[Rossal]

I am with Eerie, amazed some people want to give him millions and the summer still. 

Yes the club is in a bit of shit at the moment, but the main doom and gloom is the shit we're watching on the pitch week in week out. On the pitch the whole season has been abysmal. We're watching shit players in a shit system play shit football and get shit results and the majority of that falls on the manager. 

Potter has had months of training, no pressure from the drop and a few international breaks to stamp his mark on this squad. What exactly are we better at now than when he came in.....we don't concede as much that's literally it is it? 

Since his first game in charge where to be fair we looked decent we haven't scored 3 goals. We've only managed more than one against Leicester and Bournemouth. Not a single away game we've managed to score more than once. 

The tactics are shit, the subs sometimes are baffling and we can't create fuck all. Its just sideways and backwards till it goes wide. 

The dressing room seems a mess, there must be discontent after the Fullkrug interview.....then he basically admits half the team aint listening to the manager and they areent playing for him 

and some want to give him millions and oversee a huge rebuild in the summer?   I thought after a few years off and this being a pivotol moment in his prem career he would turn up all guns firing and get a real tune out of us till the end of the season. 

But like the team he has woefully underperformed. To see a turnaround anywhere near whats needed to even stay in the division next season seems unlikely to me. 

Fuck him off, go buy a decent manager off another club and one that can actually coach a fucking football team to defend and score goals. 

 

[Massive Attack]

one of my biggest problems with Moyes was the inevitable driving away of talented players (mostly strikers), because of his style of football. it's happening again, so don't be shocked if Bowen fucks off if a club shows interest
​​​​​​

 

 

It's sadly getting to a point where we'd be surprised if he didn't want to go elsewhere with much less hassle and more of a good chance to win Silverware especially in the Champions League where his ability should belong. At this moment in time he's completely wasting his talent just 1 place outside the relegation zone. Such is the class of the bloke and genuine love for the Club that he won't admit it to himself or kick up a stink for a move.

[Eerie Decent]

We were 13th/14th when he turned up, well clear of the diabolical Wolves team & the diabolical Everton team at the time.

We're now behind them both, and our form since he came matches Leicester & Southampton (not quite Ipswich).

How do you work out that little conundrum, Creep Dreaming son?


 

Do you feel tough to make my username different just because I don't share your views on this?
Do you think I get offended by that, like this is my real name or something? Grow up

No, it's clearly water off a duck's back.

[THUNDERCLINT]

Massive, just as an example.
How many managers have tried to get Man U onto their ambitional level?
Has it been only poor managers, or more to it than that you think ?

Man u you say.

Hmm, ten Hag is still out of work.

Got to be better than Cock Piss Potter.

Regardless of Potter, I said all along than Bowen will go in the summer.

You keep on banging about that same old bollocks about the managers job to keep them motivated. Get real, it isn't as simple as that.



 

 

 

OK my mistake, a Coach/Manager's job isn’t at all to motivate player's. I mean, it's the first time I've ever heard anyone say that but I'm sure you're right..

The club is in a mess, and this is no longer about this or that manager.

It's just bollocks saying it's the managers duty to make the players perform. 

It's one of the main jobs a Coach has is to get the player's to perform. Motivation, man management and playing to their strengths is all on a Coach. Otherwise what the fuck is he doing in the job at all if he isn't getting his player's to perform..

[Keep dreaming]

I have to laugh at some of the posts and reactions against Potter.
Someone even said we had an incredible amount of quality players in our squad that most teams would be happy to get hold of. And even a post saying Bowen had become shit under Potter.

Look, I'm no big fan of Potter, but if people are so narrow minded about what's going on in and around the club, and concludes with everything being Potters fault, and that things would be rosy with Fonesca or any other manager, you just have to laugh.

16 players are about to be released and/or sold.
What impact does that have on a club closing to the end of season with nothing to play for?

It's just bollocks saying it's the managers duty to make the players perform. It's just plain stupid form where the club are at the moment.

Eddie Howe is the Englishman both Potter and Southgate wish they were. A winner and tactician who is able to adapt to situations well but also do it in a very attacking style most of the time at the top level. Howe was the English manager I wanted when we decided to sack Bilic. Had we done that and made our move for Howe when few were really interested in him down at Bournemouth then we'd be in a much better place now than we currently find ourselves in as a Club.
