Yep, Fulham ship 2 or 3 past us and usual service resumes, it’s just a shame we don’t seem capable of putting 2 or 3 past them.

We just have to beat Fulham, otherwise it's 10 home games without a win. :tantrum:

My expectation is that, shortly, Lamps will be looking for a new job, but G-Pott won't. You can do the mathematics, I assume.

Not sure some that replied to this thread read this or ‘Hypothetical’ in the thread title. :)

Oh, I don't know....there are many posters on NSC who think that 'hypothetical' means extremely pathetic :moo:

Short term? No.. Long term? No... it’s a no then.

GP will go on to bigger and better things. Frank however, will not.

I’m not sure anyone on this thread knows enough to make a comparison. GPs decisions get dissected to death and everyone is an ‘expert’ (in the ‘in’ and ‘out’ crowds). I think it unlikely that anyone on here has done anything like that much analysis about Chelsea. Personally I couldn’t even name more than a couple of their players.

Both of them will be better than anyone we’ve got though :lolol:

Amazed more like , sometimes it sounds like no one on here wants GP . It goes to show when an alternative is offered , the old adage , " you don`t know what you got until it`s gone "stands true .

Certainly ended up a worthwhile thread :wink:

I don't want Potter out. I want him to continue reshaping the squad in his image, but get better results while he's doing it because our squad is better than we're seeing on the pitch. I think the same of Chelsea, but they're not my particular concern. Potter did a lot of spending last summer to get the players he wanted in Maupay and Webster, adding to our squad without too may leaving. He went into this season with a few more in and around the squad than he would have wanted to have.

My general point is that building a squad takes time, it isn't something you can easily do in the 3 windows Lampard and Potter have had - we're now in the 4th. Klopp needed more time at Liverpool, for example. I think it's harder to get a really tight knit squad mentality with a bloated squad and players not even getting on a 9 man bench. That festers negativity and prevents your younger players developing/getting a chance on the bench. I think we'd be better off culling a few of the fringe players to reduce the overall numbers in the squad.

Apologies if I have been in a coma or drug-induced state of grace but I had had the impression that this was exactly what you want. :moo:
