Graham Potter has snapped, placing blame on West Ham’s players after a dismal season. Following the team’s 3-2 loss to Brighton, Potter expressed frustration with his squad, citing their inability to sustain good performances.
The team’s collapse at Brighton was a low point, with West Ham coming from behind to lead 2-1 before losing in the dying moments. Potter’s comments mark a departure from his usual approach to managing his players.
West Ham’s poor form has been evident, with just 13 wins in 53 Premier League games since December 2023. The team has plummeted from top-six contention to 17th in the table.
Potter’s situation is precarious, having managed only three wins in 15 games. His comments may resonate with fans, but the question remains whether he can effect change with the current squad.
The club’s struggles have been attributed to various factors, including poor management and player performances. Potter’s willingness to hold players accountable may be a turning point, but it’s unclear whether it will lead to improvement.
The upcoming match against Spurs will be a crucial test for Potter and his team. With no room for error, West Ham must respond to Potter’s criticism and show improvement to avoid further decline.
