hadn't heard that before, interesting - do Brighton not have their own people employed in this sort of role?Potter has a recruitment analyst as part of his team, Kyle Macaulay, who helps him make sure that the players they have coming in fit his profile. He's worked with him at Östersund, Swansea and Brighton.
he siad he is waiting for the summer to see what kind of offers he gets.
I'll keep it brief, interested to hear your thoughts though as you questioned my statement.
Just off the phone to lothar matheus there
Sure keep saying it. What good will it do
Purl got fired for a poor, ineffective style of play (sound familiar). Leicester were also struggling to replace Kante and Mahrez .I agree about Leicester being well run but they were struggling under Puel. He also took over a mess at Liverpool when they finished 8th and almost won them the title the year after. Celtic have been rubbish since he left as well. I know he is a bit of a dick, probably has his limitations and is never going to be someone here for 5 seasons but i think he's 2nd choice after Naglesmann. I think he'd have us in or around the top 4 and the football would be 100 times better than we've seen for 2 seasons. For me that will do for a couple of seasons.
You could buy the best player in the world in every position and still be nowhere. Still need to be put in a system, style, tactics that work by a managerManagers have less of an impact than many of us give them credit for. Where would Klopp be without the recruitment team he has behind him at Liverpool? He's on record as saying he didn't want Salah for example. Similarly Rogers is benefitting from some very savvy transfer dealings at Leicester.
Improving our recruitment / scouting is the most important thing. Buy good players and we'll be in good shape, even if we pick a so-so manager.
Head of PE somewhere
I'll keep it brief, interested to hear your thoughts though as you questioned my statement.
When poch signed for spurs, points aside Southampton were right up there, 2 places behind spurs at the end of the season, apositive goal difference, few goals conceded, plenty of draws but a sign that he could achieve with very little - age was also on his side.
Brighton have negative goal difference, won half as many games as spurs currently(bearing in mind the travesty of a season spurs are having) and are 15th fighting it out with burnley and Newcastle.
In any other industry it would be absurd to consider a move like this but apparently with football it's worth a punt because he's young and the football looks alright
At Östersund and Swansea he was part of Graham's squad as analyst. But when Graham moved to Brighton he moved into the position of head of scouting for Brighton. But his contract is as long as Potters and if Potter moves you assume that Macaulay will follow.hadn't heard that before, interesting - do Brighton not have their own people employed in this sort of role?
Looks more or less set to go to Celtic it seems.
Then he'd be Eddie Howey
Eddie Howey's the lads!
Exactly!
