If Potter is confident in his ability and self assured enough he'll snap their hand off for that contract, if he has self doubts he'll want a security blanket

Offering Potter a 5 month contract.

Offering Potter a 5 month contract is really weird, he's the sort of manager that takes time to implement his philosophy and style as he coaches his players, with results from that 12 to 18 months later. He's not the sort of coach that can come in for 5 months to "do a job", would make me worried if I was a West Ham fan that the people running the club have no idea what they're doing. 

[Kid Icarus]

Someone said it yesterday, transforming that West Ham squad into one that suits Potter won't be easy, so offering him a short term contract seems totally counterintuitive. 

[Andy84]

West Ham always balls it up 

[Ben]

West Ham only want to stay in the league, they have obviously spent a fortune on a new manager and his team in the summer and probably don't want to risk more long term cash, Potter needs to rebuild his reputation, imagine if he keeps them up the amount of offers he'll have come the summer.

Eh?

 

Keeping that west ham team is a pretty simple job.

Unknown Spanish manager Davidé Mojés has said he'll take it till the end of the season.

Pretty shite the way they've gone about replacing Lopetegui before booting him.

More or less did the same with Moyes. The true West Ham Way

[Joelinton7]

Potter should wait and go for Spurs

Because West Ham want more than just staying up.

 

They won a european trophy just a few years ago.

Lopetegui & Rob Edwards gone.

West Ham have treated Lopetegui terribly like. They cancelled his press conference first thing this morning, then made him take training, and when that was complete they then fired him.

I’m sure his payoff will be of some comfort in these difficult times…
