Tottenham fans vow to ‘walk away’ over Qatar deal; Potter needs Arsenal patience

Tottenham fans protest against owners ENIC and Daniel Levy.

Graham Potter could do with some Arsenal-like patience at Chelsea while Tottenham fans respond to reports of Qatari investment…

 

Potter patience
Looking at all the hate Potter is receiving and banter on Chelsea.. It appears everyone has forgotten how Arteta fared a couple of years ago. In his first year he was close to sack with terrible results and everyone including Arsenal fans were baying for his head.

Since then and after being backed by Arsenal board plus recruitment with his vision plus getting rid of players who don’t fit either in style or attitude with his vision… They are now top of the table with one hand on the title cup.

I think we should allow Potter to grow. Improve our recruitment of players with focus on Potter’s vision.  There is no reason to think Potter cannot do what Arteta is doing after being backed for 3 years. However, it’s different whether Chelsea fans and owners have patience akin to Arsenal. I was myself thinking who we will bring in next.. before realizing maybe Potter is the rite man.

As for Felix, I thought he was the best player on the pitch against Fulham even with 60 odd mins. And I don’t mind his Red card for two reasons..1. It happens 2. It may spur Chelsea to buy 1-2 more players hopefully of top pedigree.

I do believe the performance of the team generally needs to improve. Unable to put a finger on the issue.. maybe it’s the new playing style, Injuries, constant change of personnel, or players not yet completely aligned with Potter’s mould.

I threw Villa vs Leeds on Talksport this evening onto the Sonos setup while wandering from room to room around the house doing laundry, intending to settle down and watch the second half.

But Clive Tyldesley was on commentary, and he’s just so much better than everyone else that I instead kept the radio commentary on.

What were ITV thinking replacing him? Nothing against Sam Matterface, though he had a bad breakup with a friend of mine, but he’s nowhere near Clives level when it comes to genuinely adding to a game.

Tyldesley is possibly even better on the radio than the TV as you get more of that treacle gravel voice with its fabulous light and dark, quiet and shrieking added to an gentle elegance of phrasing and insightful pointed questions to his co-comentator teasing out information.

He’s.. I think he’s the best around.

I’m aware he occasionally reads the site, if he sees this I would just like to express my sincere…
