He would, but we would have struggled to have kept them and he will have known that, if he is prepared to take £20k a year, a ford focus, android phone and a laptop, we will know he is motivated to be at Brighton!
How do you know though if Potter hadn't had a massive wad of cash waved Infront of his nose, he may have achieved the same or even more. Do you have anyone in mind in particular?
I have no problem with Potter coming back, he was professional and not openly questioning the club. He was given a massive pay day he had to go to Chelsea. He is a steady ship that will totally understand the club, unlike De Zerbi and Poyet.
