He's been a manager for a decade now. In that time, he's made two moves. That's loyalty in our current context. PS looking forward to you finding his most recent speech/interview where he mentions his ambition to move to a bigger club. Without this, I'll ignore your post.

It is a valid concern, and I think he'll view it as a challenge. Not half as much as a challenge as taking Arsenal on halfway through a season. I think Potter values loyalty, and would view an Arsenal offer at this stage with scepticism. Early on after the season ends, it might be a different story.

Oh agreed. On big wages though, and his powers might have waned since he was in the PL but, finishing aside (the really difficult bit), he was the complete package as a CF. If he goes to them, he's not going to play much though. I suspect Richarlison will have the hissiest of fits if Benitez...
