I wasn't determined at all.  Just logical. Your bloke was a cսnt. This bloke appears to be a cսnt. It isn't mutually exclusive

Everything about this bloke suggests to me the combination of him and Sullivan is gonna be what finally destroys this club, I firmly believe he’ll take us down 

Now that’s just my opinion but it’s what I believe, so I wouldn’t be much of a fan if I didn’t speak out about it, and at the same time I get that people don’t agree with that
no one can be sure what’s going to happen but the difference is, believing in Potter is just blind faith, he has no historic premier league stats to suggest he’s a top class coach, in fact all they do is prove he’s always had trouble scoring goals, which when you take into account he’s likely to sell our attacking players in order to bring in any money for transfers, it means this transfer window has to be spot on otherwise it’s going to be disastrous, and who’s back in charge of transfers?

Turned it off when he said there’s been improvements since he’s been in charge albeit not in points 

that’s called no fucking improvements, shoving everyone in defence to stop letting in so many goals which in turn stops you from scoring goals and getting less points because of it, isn’t an improvement in any shape or form.

I despise this bloke with a passion

It’s absolute nonsense to pretend Lopetegui wasn’t responsible for our summer signings. The club did not buy players he didn’t want.

I thought this was a Potter thread, yet you keep going back to the previous manager having originally brought him up about spunking most of the money that was mainly down to Steidten and Sullivan before him.

...and your man Lopetegui was responsible for Kilman, Soler and Rodriguez and - unless he's a man with no integrity who was happy to quietly take the dollar whilst disagreeing with his paymasters -  was presumably happy to retain the ones already there and sanctioned all the other new arrivals

I knew you'd struggle to argue how all that money was spent. Steidten is your man to blame for that.

Apart from the diabolical state of the inherited squad, curated in part by his money-spunking predecessor 
Kudus - £38M

Todibo - £35M (if we triggered his option to buy)

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... ⏰️ 
I said "curated in part"
Tough to argue with that I would suggest...

Brighton fan done a video with the lad on Hammerschat.

Didn't exactly go in on him as a manager for a club like Brighton, good and bad points.

However, as I've suggested, doesn't think he's a good fit for a club like ours, with a (rightly) demanding fanbase.

Nice guy, but the geezer doesn't have the gumption for West Ham. Might finish mid table next season, but bored to tears in the process.

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.

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.

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.
