Yes, particularly with the fight with Moyes over players much like we saw with Brendan and our recruitment team having such a gulf in preferences on signings and see the incoming players being ‘divvied up’ rather than leadership come down firmly on one side.
But I think in Potter’s case he can rightly feel peeved at the way he was treated at Chelsea. Having his own man there gives him some security for what could be his most important job.
Didn’t Chelsea bring in half of Brighton’s back room team in before they appointed Potter.
Probably needed them because of the two bus loads of players Boehly was planning to buy.
I forgot they brought in Paul Winstanley on the recruitment side before he joined and later brought in Sam Jewell.
To me it’s just storing up trouble if it all goes pot.
Nuno won manager of the month so that’s hopefully them fucked tomorrow
Hang on, that prepubescent Damon Albarn looking fella is the player people here want to buy? He looks like he’s 10
19 and 6’5”. Has shown good maturity, and that he is not fazed by the PL level of play. Get him now, or the price will be astronomical, and probably have to fight off all the other big clubs as well.
We were linked with him over the summer, too. He won’t be cheap, though, now that he’s “Premier League proven”.
Bonus points for spelling “fazed” properly, by the way. 
So many people put “phased” instead.

I guess all that money spent on a MA in English was actually good for something!
I thought it was the left back we were interested in
Interesting XI for Arsenal. Saliba is back, which is exactly the sort of overly aggressive approach that can turn a minor abdominal strain into a long term issue. Seems risky given the opponents and given the only strength they have on the bench is at the back. Norwegian Martin was sent home ill so he’s drafted Nwaneri back into the side, giving them what looks like 4 forwards, unless they have dropped Havertz back into his old midfield role. They have absolutely nothing on the bench (that acknowledges Sterling is on the bench)
8-13 wins will get us the title
1-0, the juju is working so far
Southampton took the lead against Newcaslte, but Isak got them back ahead with 2 goals in just a couple of minutes
Penalty to the Blueshite…

Brighton 0-0 Everton
The referee goes to the screen. Just behind it two Brighton fans wave a fiver at him trying to influence his call.
WOW, that red card for Arsenal was a terrible decision. This is one the fans will be justified in feeling hard done by. It was a textbook tactical foul on the edge of the opposition box to stop a break away, but oliver has given it a straight red for something that was no more than a trip.
Mikel is that you?
