Are we though?

We were recently a few times in this position and blew it. It's the hope that kills you...

Great interview, thanks for sharing. The bits about Mourinho were very interesting, especially how he still adores him but was practically pissing his pants. It also highlights why a comeback wouldn't work with the current regime.

Now he just needs to score like Drogba. Silly? In my opinion, he's one of the few with a decent haircut. Who’s that thin fellow? 😆

From today's press conference ahead of West Ham: Reece James is injured, how long could he be out for? "I think it's a sad moment because he's our captain. He was so excited to be a captain, full of energy. I think we are going to assess him day-by-day as well as possible. For sure, he is going to become stronger than he was, we are going to help him to become stronger than before." On Reece James, is it a hamstring injury? So is it not that serious if it's a 'day-by-day' situation? "Yes, it's a hamstring. It's not a few days, it's maybe a few weeks. The good thing is that it's not a good issue. The most important thing now is to worry about anticipating problems. When he plays again, we hope he's stronger than he was before. We will assess him day-by-day and make a plan every day." At least it's weeks not months... But the question now is how long until the next one? Really sad...

I don't need mine featured on pitch...😉

Until now, I felt that Potter was too passive and emotionless on the sidelines. Besides constantly clapping, he didn't do much. Just like a spectator. However, yesterday he was full of emotions, instructing the players throughout the entire game and pulling some players aside to give them specific instructions. Just as it should be. After the final whistle, all the players were thrilled with him. I think he hasn't lost his connection with the players and they believe in him.

Did Potter say this?

If we finally get that stroke of luck on our side, I can see it being achievable tonight.

Are you sure about the year? 😅

Same for me.

Yeah, I think it's kind of 'let's see how much play time I get and then decide on my future'. That sounds reasonable from him. If we keep buying top young players, his chances will be slim to be more than a back up for quite some time.

Is anything known about his wages?

Yes, that was the rumor doing the rounds. It would be interesting to know what made him change his mind. Was he promised minutes in the first team. Kind of like what was done with Hall. Although, his appearances were more due to injuries. Would he have signed if we got players like Rice, Caicedo and Enzo?

Another potentially good news. https://www.standard.co.uk/sport/football/chelsea-fc-transfer-exclusive-webster-mothersille-contracts-youth-team-b1055647.html
