I understand people want ETH gone. But wanting Potter? Fml.
I personally think Potter would be a fantastic choice. So, what does the Caf say?

For Newcastle???? Are we Newcastle???
Maybe they all spoke?! Also does Perez not select Madrid managers?What’s the point of a DOF if Jim is just going to make this decision?
Already prepared for the shocking conditions at Carrington and Old Trafford. The streets will never forget

I’m not sure potter is a better manage than Southgate. It’s a close call.My greatest fear is Southgate comes in, Potter is only slightly above that
Careful you will lose your head with these type of comments.I guess people like @Sweet Square aspire to be like Newcastle. So, maybe Potter really would be an A1 choice.
He would fit right in with Sancho@Sweet Square would save Karl Marx as manager If he got his way
How should I pass the ball, boss?At our current state we urgently need Harry Potter, not Graham.
U wot mayteRatcliff appears to desire a distinctly "British" flair for the entire club, a notion I find rather charming. I've always appreciated that United maintained its British essence while Arsenal and Chelsea embraced a more international outlook. Should he opt for a fresh start with a manager embodying a more traditional and perhaps conformist approach, I dare say such an appointment could very well materialize.
As for EtH, it seems he harbours aspirations of wielding influence over transfers—a pursuit that, judging by his track record, one might describe as rather lamentable. Given the current string of poor results and the myriad other undesirable aspects plaguing the team, I would be genuinely astonished if such a scenario, or something akin to it, were to unfold.
Furthermore, I share the sentiment of desiring a manager adept at articulating in the English language, one capable of injecting a bit of British humour into proceedings and presenting a more "human" facade to the media. The EtH approach, with its dull and unappealing demeanor, leaves much to be desired. Initially, there was a smidgen of charm to it, but now it has evolved into a tedious and uninspiring spectacle.
Lets hope there first signing is Ivan ToneyBrexit FC
Next 3 managers confirmed: Potter, Bodgers, Southgate
We could encroach and approach a coach to poach, but who?Based on his time at Brighton, I wouldn't have a massive issue with giving him a chance as the head coach of a top side who are run effectively. It might just be the case that Chelsea were a basket case.
But we aren't run effectively. And even if the new football structure knows how to get us running effectively, it will take time. And as it stands Potter has achieved less in football than Ten Hag while also already having a high profile failure on his CV that Ten Hag doesn't. It's also notable that Brighton improved once Potter left, which either speaks to his replacement being better than him or how well run Brighton are (which he too benefited from).
So yeah, not a change I'd willingly make. If we found ourselves in a position where Ten Hag had to go within the next few weeks/month and there were scant other candidates willing to come mid-season, fine. It's better than fecking around with interim managers. But otherwise I'd rather wait until the summer if possible and see if there's someone more promising we can poach.
I wouldn't bet on it.Lets hope there first signing is Ivan Toney
Papa RoachWe could encroach and approach a coach to poach, but who?
We'll be spending £150m on Toney and Guehi in the summer.Lets hope there first signing is Ivan Toney

Cut my club into pieces, this is our last resort!
Hair-raising stuff!We'll be spending £150m on Toney and Guehi in the summer.
Genuine question - who’s the last British manager in the league to “inject a bit of British humour” and present a more human facade? Sure ETH is dull, but at the end of the day it’s non-British managers that have been running the media show for decades now, with Pep, Klopp, Jose at the forefront. I’d also say Arteta, Emery, Ange or Poch are still more charismatic and relatable than superdull likes of Lampard, Dyche or HodgkinRatcliff appears to desire a distinctly "British" flair for the entire club, a notion I find rather charming.

At this juncture that doesn’t sound completely terrible….We'll be spending £150m on Toney and Guehi in the summer.
Back when Arsenal and Chelsea were splurging on their player acquisitions, Sir Alex Ferguson steadfastly upheld a British core. I'd dearly love to see that reinstated. Call me nostalgic, but that's what initially endeared me to this club.U wot mayte
Incredibly, that would still be a massive improvement on Summer 23!We'll be spending £150m on Toney and Guehi in the summer.
Perhaps you're correct, but it would be delightful to have a manager who could bring some smiles back. Someone less dreary, someone capable of lifting the mood and making United likable once more.Genuine question - who’s the last British manager in the league to “inject a bit of British humour” and present a more human facade?

Southgate domestic level was woeful, Potter was pretty good bar Chelsea. Not even comparable.I’m not sure potter is a better manage than Southgate. It’s a close call.

Isn't he the guy with the Lymphoma?Hodgkin
Agree. He stinks of Newcastle.For Newcastle???? Are we Newcastle???
Results are what brings smiles. Not jovial managers. Ange wasn't looking cheery in the middle of that bad run Spurs had.Perhaps you're correct, but it would be delightful to have a manager who could bring some smiles back. Someone less dreary, someone capable of lifting the mood and making United likable once more.
Honestly, the somber and hollow appearance of EtH in interviews gives off the impression that everything is already lost. The poor chap looks rather unwell.
I would have to think that that was a Chelsea thing more than a Potter thing. Or a Boehly thing I should say.If our criticism towards Ten Hag is his signings on top of other things, then surely you dont want someone who signs new players like its the last day of Rome.
Both Potter and Poch have admitted that they aren't and weren't exactly green-lighting every transfer at Chelsea. In contrast you have signed a lot of ex-Ajax or EtH players and players that have played in the Dutch league.If our criticism towards Ten Hag is his signings on top of other things, then surely you dont want someone who signs new players like its the last day of Rome.
Agreed. He did well in the CL from memory but then was awful in the League and Domestic Cups. He'd do well at a club like Tottenham with a clear structure in place and minimal drama.Don't think Potter is a bad manager but I don't think the United job is right at all for him or United at this moment in time.
