He was stupid for going there in the first place, no doubt they'll go and win the CL now.
That’s not how things workYeah, the idea that Chelsea would sack him knowing they will have to pay him off close to 50m is ludicrous.
It is probably mutual consent in terms of remaining payment. He will not get everything, but it will still be a massive payoff most likely. On top of £21.5 million you already paid to Brighton as a compensation when he came.Yep, absolute worst case (like we did with Di Matteo) he'd get paid his weekly wage until he gets a new job.
I liked what he was doing with Chelsea more if i’m being honest. Shame he’s been sacked.Wow. I liked what Potter was doing with Brighton & Hove, I think they brought quality to the league, and him jumping to Chelsea mid-season I thought was kinda weak. So it's just desserts. Chelsea still a shambolic club, long may that continue.
Your attention is flattering mate but I’m not interested. Now go and pester someone else.
Oh for sure, but either way it won't be a £50m payment in one lump sum.It is probably mutual consent in terms of remaining payment. He will not get everything, but it will still be a massive payoff most likely. On top of £21.5 million you already paid to Brighton as a compensation when he came.
There will almost certainly have been performance related clauses in his contract that permits termination in certain circumstances, perhaps including being in the lower half of the table after 70% of the season has been played or something, whereby they will only have to pay X amount rather than the full remaining contract terms.That’s not how things work
Possibly. I just find the logic being used that it’s too much money so Chelsea wouldn’t have sacked him had they had to pay it out pretty stupid.There will almost certainly have been performance related clauses in his contract that permits termination in certain circumstances, perhaps including being in the lower half of the table after 70% of the season has been played or something, whereby they will only have to pay X amount rather than the full remaining contract terms.
I don’t see how it could. Potter’s work at Brighton is impressive regardless of what De Zerbi has done since. For starters De Zerbi walked into a much different Brighton than the one Potter walked into and he has Potter, in part, to thank for that.Probably one of the biggest things that has gone against Potter is that De Zerbi has seemingly gone in at Brighton and done a better job. It rather dims Potters achievements there (perhaps unfairly so).
either way, the results at Chelsea have been unacceptable, especially given the money spent. I thought he would get to the end of the season, but there we are.
Parody post?i’d rather be relegated with a true englishman as boss, than win the league whilst being managed by the bloody eu.
No, Rimaldo doesn't joke when it concerns the EU.Parody post?
You're looking semi competent for the first time in almost a decade, and you want to replace your manager with whom?Wish we were as ruthless as Bayern and Chelsea
He will be fine in the sense that he is financially set for life, and he will find a new managerial position in due time.talk about drama queen
Potter will be fine
Firing Tuchel was mental, never made sense.Friring Tuchel was a mindblowing mistake.
Still I thought Potter would be a decent replacement.
Boy was I wrong.
How dare you liken rimaldo's wisdom to parodyParody post?
Completely agree.I don’t see how it could. Potter’s work at Brighton is impressive regardless of what De Zerbi has done since. For starters De Zerbi walked into a much different Brighton than the one Potter walked into and he has Potter, in part, to thank for that.
Spurs should really really be all over this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity imho!He will be fine in the sense that he is financially set for life, and he will find a new managerial position in due time.
What I am refering to is his career trajectory that will go the route of "what if", unless he has a near miraculus redemption story in his next job in the Premier League at a new low/mid-table club. You simply wont get hired in a big-six club as a manager without a big pedigree, or results to back you up. Potter took a gamble with Chelsea and he failed to deliver, no other CL club is going to take a chance on him as their next manager, so he has to start from scratch and rebuild his reputation.
What's the matter? Sacked, Potter?Boehly calling Potter into his office after the Villa game:
You're right. The very idea that it could is absolutely idiotic. Otherwise, the validation of a coach leaving is in things going to shit after his departure.I don’t see how it could. Potter’s work at Brighton is impressive regardless of what De Zerbi has done since. For starters De Zerbi walked into a much different Brighton than the one Potter walked into and he has Potter, in part, to thank for that.
Won't ever be a top oneCompletely agree.
Potter is an excellent coach. But at the time I said the Chelsea job was probably too soon for him.
