Even Potter has significantly improved Brighton’s playing style and results after a-few months. Although, he’s from the breed of progressive, modern attacking managers. Some on here appear to have a snobbish opinion of these sorts of mangers for some reason. Did Potter need three years and hundreds of millions to implement a playing style that’s far more appealing than his predecessor? No he did not. But here we are with people still using the time and money excuse for Ole.
I’m sorry but I have seen literally zero progression under him. He hasn’t implemented a style or a pattern of attacking play despite all his talk. I’m stunned our fan-base appears just as fractured under him as it did under Mourinho. At least Mourinho had an amazing track record and pedigree which is why he had loyal devotees until the end. I didn’t agree with them and still don’t but I can at least kind of see the premise of their arguments and why they wanted to keep him. With Ole, there’s been no positives, for the most part and he has no track record to show that he can fix this nor have there been any signs of real significant improvement.
There are certain posters in this thread who have wholly nailed their colours to the Ole mast. They won’t deviate away from their support of him and at this point, it’s irrational bias. When a supporter is totally unwilling to change their views in light of the overwhelming evidence that Ole isn’t good enough, it doesn’t make them better fans like they think. It makes them look arrogant that they are unwilling to accept that maybe they were wrong about Ole and he isn’t up to the task. Using the whole “oh but there’s no one to replace him stick” just doesn’t cut it for me. Nor does the the lauding of his signings which have been very overstated on here by his fans, in all honesty.
The thing his arrogant fans who are unwilling to look past being wrong on an Internet forum need to realise is this: Unlike Jose, Ole had the full and unanimous backing of our fan-base. We all wanted a legend of the club to succeed and everyone wished him well. The only - and I have to reiterate only - reason that fans want him gone is because he’s simply not good enough. There’s no agendas like some had with Jose, it’s simply that he isn’t a good enough manager and never will be. He has totally failed to get us playing any semblance of modern attacking football and he looks incapable of doing so. The mental gymnastics about needing more time, money etc need to stop.
I’ve come to the stark realisation that some though, no matter how bad we get, will arrogantly stand by him while proclaiming the fan-base toxic, impatient glory hunters etc.
