Truth is we need more quality if we are to make progress. My honest opinion is that Potts is a decent League One player. I have to accept that a lot of people seem to rate him though.
Potts was great in the first half, won tackle after tackle, broke play up well and made some great interplay with the full backs in an attempt to get us up the field. 2nd half he was put on the wing, and was anonymous. No surprise that he didn't perform when he was put on the wing because he isn't a winger.
Brilliant all round performance today and a cracking point, let's not forget that. But Potts is nowhere near good enough.
I think Potts has got better as season progressed but still inconsistent. Massive step up for him from L2. Would have been much easier if he was built up slowly to championship football. But we didn’t have that luxury. He’s competing against multi million pound international players. And I think for the most holding his own. Reckon we’ll see much better performances from him next year. And hopefully McGeehan if he can find some form in L1.
Potts was our weak link today in the 2nd half. Big lad like him and he isn’t able to jump for a simple header. He can’t beat a man, he can’t make any forward passes, first touch like an elephant, he’s a liability on the counter attack, what is the point of him exactly?
This^^^^^^^^^^ all day with bells on.. If we are to progress, we need better players than Potts, Should have been him at Scunny/Yeovil and kept Bird/McGeehan
Some of you may be surprised to learn that Potts has the best heading stats of any Barnsley player apart from defenders.
We must agree to disagree because i thought he had a good first half prior to being put on the wing due to isgroves injury. Hes not lazy, far from it or i suspect he wouldnt be selected
I thought Potts played well today, until he was moved to a position that doesn't suit him. He made some great forward passes. Moncur is a waste of a shirt. Get rid, she's had her chance.
