Derby and Joan, surely!What's the Darby and Joan scene like around west London? "Wazza"™ could yet be persuaded.

Potter's a good manager but it's one thing doing well at Brighton, quite another to take the step up to a team like us or Chelsea. He's got a nice group of players at Brighton who aren't that well known and work hard for each other. What works for Brighton might not work for Chelsea.
Doing well at Brighton may get the players a better gig but it's a situation where the whole is greater than the sum of the parts. The players listen to him and have responded well. Potter and his players are reliant on each other but there's a load of players at Chelsea who probably feel they have made it and have little to learn, particularly from a man who's never won anything.
That's not to say he won't do well but expectations and egos are bigger plus the players at Chelsea simply may not suit the way he wants to play.
Where's that Badumm Tish gif when you need itDerby and Joan, surely!
Under the Radar but Thomas Frank has done a great job at Brentford, whether they’d go for another German would be debatable.
I thought Hodgson was amazing at Liverpool personallyTrying to think of the last English manager to do well at one of the so called top jobs.
Lampard started off ok at Chelsea but that went downhill very quickly.
Roy Hodgson at Liverpool was a total disaster.
You have to go back more than a decade to find one that did quite well in Harry Redknapp at Spurs but even he didn't win anything, just had a couple of fourth placed finishes.
Nah, they haven't got the playersIf Potter can handle the egos I believe they will take over Liverpool as the main contenders. A top level coach.
