You can't come on here and say this kind of sensible thing. Who do you think you are? If it's on the street it's fact. Without doubt. Unless you don't like it. Then it's bollocks.
I don't think so, no... but that's just my opinionEither way nothing to get irate about…

Desperate - Nowhere else to go - he’ll be sat waiting for the first Prem team to sack ten games in and then he’ll be picking up a right mess
Might as well try and pick up this complete ****ing mess instead

I think we're ideal for each other. He was clearly shell-shocked at Chelsea and I think he was really harshly treated by them.
After getting sacked, he could have instantly got back into the game (with us and other options) but wisely decided to take a few months out before deciding what to do next.
Potter isn't someone that takes the obvious moves. The Chelsea experience will have made him wary of walking into another high profile mess.
There are no vacancies he's being considered for in the PL. Speculation links him with several jobs but none of them exist. If Postecoglou goes to Spurs then there is a job at Celtic which might appeal to him. But we're currently the only real opportunity for him.
If he sits back and waits for a sacking, he will end up somewhere where he's got to make an instant impact and that's not really his style.
At City, he can build something out of the spotlight and with a free reign. It's a repair and rebuild job for us both. I think he'd be foolish to turn us down.
Tbh, we're ready for significant rebuild if that's really what interests him. He's guaranteed that in fact given the number of players we're going to lose. If he wants in on the ground floor of such a rebuild, then cool. That'd certainly suit us. I'd guess the bigger question is funding for the rebuild, and how much wiggle room we'll have for buying/paying players. Longer term, we'll be a decent proposition I reckon but we'll have to negotiate the short term (a couple of seasons?) If he's onboard with that then it'd be a starter in my book.
However, I fully expect him to turn us down (if indeed we've spoken to him)

Because he's not all that. And neither are we. Marriage made in heaven.
There is that too!
