  • Forest owners with the kiss of death 'full support' statement... tick tock on his reign then.

    In other news, who knew Callum Wilson would be the voice of reason on Potter:

    Wilson said: “They’ve paid £20m to get him out of Brighton. Then you’ve given him a five-year contract as well, so you’ve got all those financial implications. Then you’ve let him spend £400m or whatever it is. Surely, you’ve got to let him ride the wave.

    "Chelsea are not at the moment really pushing for anything because of the way the season’s gone. It’s like, ‘finish as high as we can, regroup in the summer, have a good pre-season, go again.’ He’s an English manager, who’s been unbelievable for Brighton for so long, but he gets quickly forgotten because a few bad games at Chelsea.

    "Ultimately, you need the time. Look at what Arteta had – all of a sudden Arsenal are top of the league. With that squad that Chelsea have, that could have been them. You can’t tell me that Arsenal have a better squad than Chelsea, so you’d be thinking, give him time. The way he took Brighton from one level to another tactically. Chelsea are a much better squad – you’ve got better individuals to do that with."

    Can't disagree with any of that.

  • Chelsea fans expect instant success. They turned against Potter very quickly and, once that happened, it was only a matter of time.

    The rumour mill also suggests that the players at Chelsea are used to wielding a lot of power, so a low key manager like Potter will struggle with that too.

    Hopefully they are fucked and will be back in the Championship where they belong in a year or two.

  • Yes I'm an arsenal fan but I'd take our young, hungry, balanced squad over Chelsea's bloated imbalanced pile of turds any day of the week.
    The only thing about their squad that's "better" is it's size. 22shits is still shit.
