Believe it or not, there's more to life and being a professional than the money you make. Totally agree, but it comes with the job sometimes though, an you make your own decisions. Do you think he didn't know managing Chelsea comes with a very high degree of stress and pressure. They pay the big money, cause its a big job.

Has taken his nongoal scoring tactics to a bigger club and has delivered similar results. Brighton look better off without him. Might be a bit leftfield but I can see Southgate going to Chelsea. He looks bored at England and might be something that a American owner might do. Under him Brighton would go for long stretches with little to no goals. Overall last season only 4 teams scored less; Wolves and the 3 relegated teams. A decent coach, but always seemed to be hyped as some guru like Bielsa was at Leeds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Tuchel was a sitting duck really, a leftover from the previous regime. But a far superior coach to Potter, with elite-level experience. They might as well kept him this season and got a top level person this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely, Tuchel is a superb manager imo and someone that I think is if anything a little underrated, but any new owner will want to put their own stamp on things.

Rodders Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Potter would do well enough given time, but it's a poor fit. If he does get the summer, I'd expect them to be much better under him. He was good for Brighton. But having a billion players foisted on him is insane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chindie Posted February 27, 2023 VT Supporter Share Posted February 27, 2023 Tuchel is a great manager. For about a year. After that his terrible personal skills and ability to cause an argument in a room with nothing in it becomes his downfall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 I read that Potter has a 28.3% Premier League win record How was he ever considered for the position Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think so, Boehly can’t sack him after what he said in the aftermath sacking Tuchel, he will only sack him if it gets really bad, Boehly will be saving face for as long as possible.

Zatman Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 I look forward to see who Boehly picks out next, I can see him going for a big name manager with zero credibility. A Jurgen Klinsmann or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa89 Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 (edited) The only reason Potter is still there is that he was appointed by Boehly himself. The new owner doesn't want to admit he got it wrong so he's giving him every chance to turn it around. They'll miss the CL spots now and that will cost them £50m odd. Oh dear.

sne Posted February 28, 2023 Share Posted February 28, 2023 Maybe Boehly can make some calls and get Chelsea one of those legacy spots in the CL one season early. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
