Someone has probably said this already but Potter should never have left Brighton. He was doing a good job there and basically took over the poisoned chalice at Chelsea. IMHO.

Much bigger money, and he'll be getting a big pay-off here as well. Also, it would be difficult for anyone with any kind of ego to refuse what looked, on the face of it, like a job with huge possibilities. Much greater than at Brighton.
Potter won't be out of work for long. He'll do good work at a middling club who'll snap him up. Not worried for him. It's Chelsea who've got the problems. They're long-term, too.
 
Chelsea get off scot free with how they do business.

Just read a tweet from Kieran Maguire and they paid Brighton £21.5m in compensation to Brighton, gave him a £10m per year contract for five years and sack him after 6 months whilst giving him £300m worth of players that he had no say on.

A basket case of a football club.

You're surprised by that?

Just wait until the septics get their grubby hands on the inevitable Super League... We ain't seen nothin' yet.

Tuchel has serious baggage apparently. Enough to turn an entire dressing room against him at Chelsea according to 'rumour'. Doesn't seem to bother anyone at Bayern, so it must have been something serious 'in-house' at Stamford Bridge

There's definitely something very odd about Tuchel....
 
The Upshot has a running gag about him having a sex dungeon.

Leaving Brighton was the stupidest thing Potter ever did, and they’re fine under Di Zerbi, they won’t want him back.
 
I’m a little surprised.

I thought that Potter would have until the start of next season, at least.

He has had a lot of new players to incorporate into the squad, and has had little time to implement his own style on the squad.

Said it was the wrong club for him at the time he was appointed. It’s a comedy show hiw they’re run.
I believe had he stayed where he was, he could have succeeded Pep at our very steady and extremely well run club.

Fir him he’s set for life, but his rep is in ruins and through no fault of his own. It’s ended exactly as I thought it would.

I don't think our board would countenance any manager who hadn't consistently proven themselves at the highest level, as successor to Pep.
I'm not sure we'd be in the business of taking chances on potential.

Not sure they had much choice, Saturday they were dreadful and that after he looked like he had turned thing around in previous games.

The way Chelsea have gone about things since Roman was moved on is plain wrong, the money , no plan, just the splatter gun throw cash at it.

I can see this all ending in tears and a serious investigation in to where and who this money is coming from.
