This is not Potter's fault, but we don't have an out and out striker at the club.
We have 2 in Auba and D Fofana.
Even though there's a lot of dislike for Auba, he knows how to put the ball in the back of the net.
D.Fofana had a promising game and he froze him out since.
Just a manager out of his depth, he'll do fine at his next club, somewhere like Leicester

I've gotta agree with you there. There were line-ups that were bizarre or just plain ridiculous.
point 3 is criminal for a club that spent more than half a billion in one season!!
Massive shortcomings imo
Also, he has a massive, massive squad. I highlighted this when the window shut, I don't think any manager in the world would handle that many players very well.
Auba may not work hard but if you create chances he will usually put them away, he was on fire at Barcelona and only came to you lot to play for Tuchel.
Any chances u create these days falls to that lanky giraffe lookalike who misses them every game.

Why do I keep seeing this? Fofana was our best player v Southampton and he took him off and he’s not been seen since.
Auba started really well under potter and he stopped playing him.

Yep.
Potter wasn't the guy regardless, but I've gotta say it's mightily impressive how spectacularly Boehly has shafted two managers in a single season. He's like an overbearing dad who can't see his "help" is the very reason why his son is a basket case
Although having a big squad may be a problem, when you consider some of his awful line-ups, it's criminal that players like Chalobah or Fofana have not had a look in. You'd understand if others were setting the league alight but in the situation we're in - not to mention his performances, I just can't understand why Cucurella was picked so often.
I agree with your article Eric, the frustration is their for all to see, and I'm sure that most of us felt the same, anyway, onwards and upwards now ,as they say !
