I know it feels like Potter would be mad to leave Brighton for us but here would be my pitch:

There's very little he can still do with Brighton, quite simply they are at or close to their ceiling. Everton have a stadium on the way, and even though things are grim at the moment the squad is getting younger and we are slowly getting a lot of deadwood off the wage bill, in previous summers and in the summer come up.

Once the fat is trimmed there is a lot of potential, especially with the very good young players we have, to come, with his DoF if he could be persuaded, and put together something with a much higher ceiling than he has at Brighton, even if they are in much better shape than us at present.

My thoughts exactly although I think that pitch begins by appealing to their DoF Dan Ashworth. I expect Potter to garner something above us in due time which might be his calculus in stying put. But totally agree on the pitch to him and Ashworth. Build your club similar to Brighton, but with a larger profile and resources.
 

We should try all we might to get Amorim. Its a gamble, but he has done great at Sporting. Dont really see why he would come other than us paying very well.

Ashworth gone to Newcastle last week
 
Lampard "may" make us more media savvy,I could see him moulding a younger, energetic squad ,bringing through the likes of Dobbin,Mills,Onyango etc, only concern for me is he's a total "Lahndan" boy, but he would be an interesting one.

Maybe, I think the next appointment is for the immediate future, and given the nature of modern football it's an open question whether anyone could stay long enough to remodel a pm team on youth to that degree. The risk of utter capitulation doesn't exist with him though, as opposed to Rooney imo ( Rooney's also thick as well).
