big money beckons... he gets a 5-year contract at fc chelsea and the club has to transfer €18.4 million to brighton as a transfer fee.
this makes Graham Potter the second most expensive coach for whom a transfer fee was paid
I'm surprised to know how expensive Graham Potter is. Is he really worth €18.4 million?
As far as I know, Graham Potter only won 1 title so far, 1 Swedish Cup Winner. If we compare it with Mauricio Pochettino, Pochettino's achievement seems better. I'm a bit confused why Chelsea didn't try to hire Pochettino and chose to pay a lot of money for Potter.
How good is Graham Potter on coaching big teams?. Most times it really not easy managing big players even the most experienced coaches have this difficulties.
Potter never managed big teams.
He only managed small teams: Brighton, Swansea, and Östersunds.

Potter is expected to bring quick and instant change, very hard to do even for a coach with a lot of experience in managing big teams.
