    [Football] Coincidental (?) Potterish Things

    I've just watched a film called 'The Outfit' with Mark Rylance, his character toward the end says, and perhaps rings a bit with RDZ: It's at the finishings that you must come to terms with the idea that perfection is a necessary goal, precisely because it is unattainable. If you don't aim for...

    [Football] Coincidental (?) Potterish Things

    I think the difference isn't mentality, it's that managers rarely get poached from or leave a big club for another job when things are going well. They generally get sacked or part ways of mutual consent for the end of their tenure. I doubt Liverpool fans for example a year or so ago when they...

    Swansea scored 65 goals in his season there, given the fire sale they went through, it was impressive. The following season in which you seem to hold up as evidence of Cooper doing much better they scored 63. Hughton got 34 then 35 goals, Potter followed that with 39, 40 and 42. Don't think...

    Potter's first season in charge we finished on 41 points. That did only better Hughton's first season in the PL by 1 point, but that was also a great season, so praise to Hughton for that. It was also a significant improvement of the previous season's 36 points.

    I think our performances against the bigger clubs did that. We were consistently good against sides that didn't just park the bus. We went from being scared stiff of anyone in the top six to winning at every ground accept Man City's, and we beat them at home for good measure. We played some...

    I’ve been joining the dig at our ex-manager, what I’m pointing out is saying that our own team was poor is also having a dig at our own team. Not rocket science.

    Given Chelsea is RDZ’s only home win, needed next game, and the game after… Doesn’t always work though, home to Forest Spurs and Villa wasn’t too clever, poor away at Brentford, Arsenal granted players missing but still. I’m not sure people’s need to run down Potter is effecting how they view...

    You would think Walker was only allowed to play for City.

    Having Welbeck, Lallana and Webster in your team, how are injuries not going to be an issue?

    A tear can happen through lack of preparation, but actually for a professional athlete it can happen anytime because their bodies are pushed daily. So to effectively say anyone pulling a muscle in the first minute is a lack of preparation is kind of wrong.
