"He gets it" | POTTER ERA BEGINS | West Ham unveil new Head Coach with excellent press conference

[@HinckleyHammer]

100% agree with everything you have said here Mark and you speak for the vast majority of Hammers fans I think too. Huge lift for the whole club and the fans 😊

[@barryholman2645]

Potter did his homework, and said all the right things. He has talked the talk, now we are all backing him to walk the walk. Fans will be now buzzing, even if he is not necessarily their first choice. Hope he does not disappoint.

[@glenmatthews1170]

Spot on Mark, I was the same, buzzing when his name came up and even more so watching his interviews. I'm from Sussex and nobody had a bad word about him when he was at Brighton. Fingers crossed he'll be a right result for us!

[@Fazzamania]

Such a relief to listen to an articulate manager.

[@Chris-yx8gj]

Brighton fan. You've got a good man. I expect good things from West Ham. Give Aston vanilla a beating. 😊😊😊😊

[@alfonsomalonso6811]

Great video Mark, but can we drop the narrative of Moyes won us a cup. He didnt. If anyone won us that cup it was Declan Rice, with the help of some inspirational moments from Paqueta, Bowen, Benrahma and Fornals along the way. Declan Rice single handedly kept us in the premier league. As soon as Declan left we were shot! We struggled in another relegation battle and conceded a record amount of goals. Moyes did nothing for this club, the distain and disrespect he showed the fans was awful. Had Rice not been the player he was for us, we could well have been another Sunderland, and suffered relegation and years in the EFL thanks to Moyes. That man is thankfully history. Graham Potter came across brilliantly on his first day as manager. What gives me hope is that he was recruited by a modern/forward thinking club like Brighton who have an excellent recent record of finding young, enthusiastic and dynamic managers. His time at Chelsea, on reflection doesn't look great. But the club was a shower of shit after Boley took over, they were signing anyone with a pulse and the chaotic nature there was completely the opposite to what Potter had at the well run and well organised Brighton. Chelsea sack managers like we concede goals. The vibe and sense of relief that JLo has gone is palpable across social media. Get behind GP and lets start to enjoy supporting West Ham again, because for the past 4+ years, barring one night in Prague, its been a miserable past time!! COYI 🩵💜⚒️

[@johnmurdoch1637]

Didn’t realise before Mark but you could be Potters Love Child 😂

[@MichaelCastle143]

Hehe

[@robertbryant1735]

I’m happy we have got a seemingly decent bloke that’s not an egomaniac managing the team. If he can get the team enjoying playing again then he has succeeded !!!!

[@BigAl-q1x]

Good vid Mark, agree with you, can also relate to when Bilic was appointed.

[@christopherglover127]

Agreed with every single word of this mate. Genuinely have got that buzz back already

[@BJ-WHU]

Mark, I thought leadership for many years all over the world. Potter came over as confident and enthusiastic. He has a masters degree in leadership and it was evident how he spoke about his future plans and approach. I agree with your summary totally. We just have to be patient and give him time! 👍😀⚒⚒⚒

[@Michaelkelly-z3c]

He’s calm confident and Very measured with what he’s said He certainly understands people with his Psychology degree and will get the players to play for him - can’t help thinking Loppy lost the dressing room Potter

[@AlexSmith-tr7xn]

I think exciting times are just round the corner for us west ham fans let's get behind our new coach

[@BradSGP]

its great to be optimistic.. don't want to put the pressure on to Graham too quick with unrealistic expectation but he will certainly make a big difference and am looking forward to see how the Villa game pans out... and who he fields... COYI

[@hammerite5656]

Mark that’s it for the fans exactly he gets it. He will look at our Academy great news for them . Even those on loan . The conference speech blow me away . I heard everything I wanted to hear . He will know midfield needs legs and we need another Striker . Hopefully restless players will give Potter a chance . Clean slate for all

[@johnmurdoch1637]

Fully agree with your sentiment about David Moyes

[@anthonysokolsky6210]

GP looks refreshed after his draining experience at Chelsea! COYI!

[@UptonPK]

Loving your optimism. Have to admit I’m pretty excited too…but there’s always the nagging doubt😂⚒

[@hammer159159]

completely agree. I'm buzzing. out of Interest Mark, opinions are your own, but do you have your own news sources also, or our video conduit from ex? just curious

[@whu1001]

Results will tell but good luck Graham ⚒️⚒️

[@martinkelly9763]

... i just hope Mark he's gonna give youth a chance.

[@forest_169]

At least the players will understand what he is saying.

[@jkl92590]

Completely agree mark. It does feel like this man gets it.

[@colinlarkin5843]

Totally agree with all you said

[@stevenspraggs4953]

well said graham potters claret and blue army

[@markchandler5860]

I think we all are grateful to Moyes, for Europe and a trophy BUT it was time for him to go. He oversaw a severe decline and didn’t have the answers. Both he and Floppy looked confused and outdated. The fact he wasn’t snapped up and Milan fans protested against Floppy proves they had to go.

[@johnledington6242]

I really hope he brings a brand of football that will thrill and excite us, it's been too long that we've had to endure dull boring football, I remember his Brighton team playing some really good football and if he can recreate that I'll be very happy

[@KevinSaunders-pq5zl]

I think he will do us well a good fit for West Ham pleased he has joined us come on u irons ⚒️⚒️

[@BarryCook-qo4qz]

We needed someone to steady the ship, he knows the Premier league, we were going down.

[@StevetheWeave.]

I'm trying not to get to carried away on the Potter (Jacobite Steam) train ride and that's why I'm only giving him 9 & 3/4 out of 10 for his performance, rather than a full 10! Because I really don't want all this Love for the man to turn sour (& it will) if the results don't go our way. As one thing that's certain, he won't be given 11 years start his magic!

[@martinduggan4077]

what a week not in thee Academy but in the calamity good luck to him zcoyi

[@martinduggan4077]

Mark good old Moyse has been fighting off thee offers from all around the globe

[@harrisx420]

Did Emerson play for graham potter when he managed Chelsea? if so wouldn’t it be a reunion in a sense 😜

[@paulmulks]

Potter's news conference is making me twitch in special places! Now I hope the football does the talking and we open up a big gap to that drop zone as I think this season is a write off ⚒️

[@lawrencesalmon2934]

I’d like Will Still as his assistant and Sullivan n Brady out the door!🙏

[@ogyamatta6903]

Can Slowcek break into Potters system?

[@roylang9754]

Million dollar question for me is why Potter wasn't considered in the summer 🤯

[@FalseNi9e]

Ngl I miss Moyes, but I'm ready to back Potter and support him fully! Remember, give the man some time before everyone calls for his head

[@peterjones2903]

Thanks, Mark,, I will back the new coach ALL the way,,,, I just hope the monetary man, David Sulevan does the same,

[@covy27-hammers]

Our long national nightmare is over!

[@robinemanuel5238]

Easily impresses my God

[@NicoleandRobLucy-Jones]

‘You’ve got a feeling it’s gonna be a good fit’… yet you start the video saying he’s not your first choice…. Who was then?

[@Chris-yx8gj]

Forget the Chelsea crap. 😊

[@nathanhewitt6907]

guillem balague, he’s been poor

[@clario2178]

Here we go again totally delusional,copy and paste .

[@davidwantsahug]

I knew Sullivan wouldn't pay for a manager so Potter for genuinely my first choice in the summer. I'm annoyed it's taken 6 months and a bunch of terrible football for that to happen, but now I can be excited. Just hope he does a good job ⚒🫧

[@Michaelkelly-z3c]

He’s calm confident and Very measured with what he’s said He certainly understands people with his Psychology degree and will get the players to play for him - can’t help thinking Loppy lost the dressing room
