I really like Potter, I forgot about him. Would happily take him as our manager, but I still wonder if he's keeping his hat in the ring for the England gig.

Highly unlikely.We just need to hope Liverpool play Nottingham Forest a few more times, draw them in cup games, and get another manager into the conversation

O yeah
Forgot Newcastle ousted them from the EFL Cup. And I won't put much money on West Ham beating Liverpoll in the EFL Cup next week, as I don't think they've won at Anfield since 2015

I dont see anyone but carsley getting it.. its a proven method , works with other nations and worked with southgate, get the next manager in from the under 21s.. he/she will have a good relationship with the players and know who will / wont make the jump sooner. Southgate for all the moaning about him had a great relationship with the players.
Potter would be a great fit however I think hes just enjoying his money now.. doesnt he have to give a lot of it up if he gets another job?

Any chance Potter could become the U21 manager, with a view to become England manager after Carsley? Could he and the FA be waiting to see how Carsley gets on in his interim spell, and once Carsley is appointed full time (assuming this will happen), Potter will be asked to be U21 manager knowing that would put him in a strong position in a few years down the line

Hes the chairman and I believe holds some shares himself but yeah - Lewis is the owner.
He lets Levy run it - and must be happy with the output

Very much doubt because of cost, he would command more than the England manager
The system ATM allows less proven management to get up to speed with the under 21s and transition up the ranks
International football is another skill set from normal management
Eth might make a good international manager

That's what it takes to be a great international manager. Southgate only started to get criticized when he stopped wearing his waistcoatWho we kidding Eth would balls up both whilst being a snappy dresser

Whilst many will not like it, the England job and the jobs in the under 21s and lower age groups should be used to develop the next generation of English managers. The job is perfect management training, no need for transfers, budgets, or weekly media scrutiny, if is almost half the job of a premier league manager where you can focus on tactics and selection.

Rodri what a footballer.
Gets away with a lot though.
My thought on the kit is.
Remember when UTD had a grey kit and the players said “ they couldn’t see the other players as it just blended in with the background”
Reminds me of that, just to fussy but looks good with jeans!

Blimey makes a change for West Ham fans to go at someone else’s manager after 4 games of the season - it’s normally their own manager

Regarding Spurs' managerial carousel....at what point do you have to question whether it's the club and not the manager?
I'm not saying Ange is the answer, but the majority of the managers who have been and gone in recent years have had success just about everywhere else?
Conte
Jose
Poch
hell, even Nuno. guided Wolves to Europe and top 10 finish in the league....did nothing at Spurs and is now orchestrating a remarkable turnaround at Forest, now he's been given a bit of time and a full pre-season.

And therein lies the issue. Even United have given EtH a degree of time irrespective of how they go to that position and clubs especially the top ones need to wake up and realise it isn't about always chucking cash at it but building a side and style. It is what Emery is doing to great effect, what Arteta is doing and what Klopp did

Indeed, time is definitely a factor. Forest didn't really improve much under Nuno after he came in last season. Just enough to see us through.
Now he's had a full pre-season and a few key signings to bed in, we're basically prime Barca now.
