Graham Potter is a fantastic manager & will do well at Brighton
He hasnt really done anything to suggest he is fantastic? Yesterday's result was good though and i do hope he does well but Swansea were not that great were they? I dont know much about him hence why i am surprised by your comment but maybe you know more about him
Swansea barely spend anything last summer though - Potter had to rely on a lot of kids (i.e. Daniel James now at Man Utd hadnt really played prior to last season), did quite well seeing they just missed out on the play-offs after a late run of form
I wouldnt say they just missed out on playoffs. Chris Houghton did well to keep Brighton up and then to be sacked and replaced by someone who managed Swansea to 10th? Imagine Bowyer keeping us up and then sacked for somebody with not much of a great CV. I can understand why Brighton fans were pissed off.
reiterate my previous point that Lampard will be a spectacular failure. A sentimental yet ultimately poor choice, he is not ready for such a high profile job and he has taken the job at the wrong time. Why would you sack a manager who finished 3rd (to the best 2 teams ever in the prem) won the UEFA Cup and reached a domestic final and replace him with the manager who lost the championship play off?

They didn’t sack him - I thought he had asked to leave so he could return to Italy to look after his parents?

OK fair enough, walked before pushed and the majority of fans wanted him out
Chelsea weren't 4-0 bad they hit the woodwork twice and I thought were the better team in the first half. A lot of my Chelsea mates were saying it's a win win situation for Lampard. Most fans detested Sarri & his style of play, Lampard has the support of fans (for now) & the transfer ban to use as a excuse. If he does well he's a great manager if he fails he hasn't had a chance to build his own team.
I feel United fans will get ahead of themselves after this. They're still streets behind City/Liverpool & Spurs are a better team on their day. Arsenal I think have the firepower now to mount a better challenge for the top four so it will be another tough season for them.
I wouldn’t die fighting on this hill, but think the rule is fair. That goal was made possible by hitting an arm. Blanket bans for such goals are a fair way of making sure no handballs are ever advantageous.

OK, here's a scenario for you, say the ball hits the REF, ricochets into the path of the striker and they score. Have they not gained the same accidental advantage?

United look good defensively but that midfield is really weak.

Good time for Hazard to leave.
If Chelsea finish top six much respect from me.
Tough game for them next weekend not helped by a likely thrashing midweek from Liverpool in turkey
