'Just like Moyes!' — Manchester United fans make prediction as Chelsea appoint Graham Potter
08.09.2022 - 19:05 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Manchester United fans have all been saying the same thing after Chelsea announced the appointment of their new manager Graham Potter.
The 47-year-old Englishman had been the head coach at Brighton since 2019 having enjoyed a successful spell at Swansea City. Potter's last match in charge of the Seagulls came last weekend when his team beat Leicester City 5-2 at the AMEX Stadium.
Speaking on his arrival at Stamford Bridge as Thomas Tuchel's successor, Potter said: "I am incredibly proud and excited to represent Chelsea FC, this fantastic football club. I am very excited to partner with Chelsea’s new ownership group and look forward to meeting and working with the exciting group of players and to develop a team and culture that our amazing fans can be proud of.

"I would also like to place my sincere thanks to Brighton and Hove Albion for allowing me this opportunity and in particular Tony Bloom and all the players, staff and supporters for their continued support during my time at the club."
United fans know full well the dangers a Potter side poses after their team lost 2-1 to the south coast side in Erik ten Hag's first match in charge at Old Trafford. Despite that, many supporters have linked the arrival of Potter at Stamford Bridge to when David Moyes joined following the retirement of Sir Alex Ferguson.
Here is what United fans have been saying after hearing the news from London.
