If Hassenhuttl can stop crying after he beats his German idol and stop making his team concede 9, maybe he’d be a slightly better option than Potter.
Ralph H has done what I'd call a decentish job there.

But he's crap at setting up a defence, theyve had some right batterings from teams that they should be competitive against - West Brom 3-0, Leeds 3-0, and then there are a couple of 5ers and a 9. This is looking like an Eddie Howe all over again. Unless they strengthen they could be in a relegation fight next season.

Potter does set up a defence well. They've been competitive in all matches bar 3 (City, Chavs, Leicester) ie every loss has been by no more than one goal. Think about that - over a season little old Brighton are in the fight till the final whistle in over 33-34 matches, and not by parking the bus either Barcodes style, with a Hail Mary Sissoko up and under to supersub Andy Carroll for that last-ditch pen.

We all know that his teams create loads of chances. Talking to a Brighton mate yesterday, watches every minute of every game, says that with no more than a PL standard competent striker (ie not Kane/Son) they'd be about about 7th/8th.
 
Of the two, Potter. But, any chance we could just get Poch back? I think him and Levy could both learn from their mistakes and team up again.I certainly prefer him to any of the choices we have been linked with.

*Edit - saw Conte on the list, is he linked? I'd take him over Parker/Potter. He can actually coach players too, made Moses into a good right wing-back for example.
I think Poch had lost the players. 90% of those players are still here. I think maybe there will be a time for him to come back to Spurs. But that time isn't now. Maybe in 5-10 years. When he probably have won something. Just hope he gets another year at PSG.

I’m going for Parker , I think he done well with that Fulham team and was unlucky not to keep them up , I reckon we could finish top half and have a nice cup run next season!

I like Parker but it’s way to early, Potter fits the mandate of the club much better

- plays good attacking football with decent defence
- works and develops players
- proven success abroad (Sweden)
- possession based
 
Nice cup run???
Want to win the fucking thing don't we?

It appears that many of us believe that we should have a 2nd Poch so to simplify the matter and make it a simple referendum, i.e. one simple majority.
And you cannot vote for Erik in this one !
