It clearly isn't being used as a barometer, they (Villa) we're struggling badly when he took over, they have improved drastically and are now in touch with the European places.
I’m not having a go at you. Just stating that better than Chelsea doesn’t go for much this season. He’s improved them drastically and they have money to spend so it will be interesting to see the level of player they go for in the summer.
no hay problema amigo
He didn’t exactly fail at Brighton so will have another premiership job in him before it comes to that.
He's very good at breaking down what the opponent does well, almost like the anti-football that we were accused of.
3 Europa leagues on the spin would agree with that. Well drilled and well disciplined football.
Failing at Chelsea isn't a very exclusive club,it's almost taken for granted you'll fail at that club.
No wonder.
Will probably be in the running for the England job at some point after Southgate, if he is not employed in the EPL at the time. Although that depends on Eddie Howe’s situation. Same with Gerrard.
You cannot blame him for taking the job It is a big ask but a even bigger salary to go with it.
Leicester in the Championship my money is on where Potter will end up
Are you for real ? He will be entitled to all sorts of benefits if he's sacked, might even get his council tax paid and free school dinners for his 11 kids.
The barometer might be that they have won 4 out of the last 5 and have put themselves in contention for a European spot. And you’re right, Chelsea are rank, with players being played out of position and looking rudderless.
Unrelated stat but something I found impressive yesterday. Brighton became the first team ever in the EPL to have all 10 starting outfield players record 2 shots at goal each
Superbly building on the foundations put down by Steven Gerrard.
Hardly.
He’s at least one step up from Gerrard.
A couple of levels above, but in fairness Steve G has just started his career.
My Villa supporting friends love the guy, Gerrard should've been able to do the same, but it's clear there's a big gap.
Tell that to Diego Simeone who has used it extensively in the last 10 years.
I can see him ending up at Bournemouth or Southampton come next season. He’d do well with a new project when he has to get the best out of mediocre players. Chelsea was completely the wrong move for him.
