Potter was fired after coaching West Ham United for just eight months. The Daily Mail wrote an article about Porter's experience in coaching West Ham, and some players believed that he was "unable to do so."
In the 20 months after leaving Chelsea, Porter rejected invitations from several clubs, including Leicester City and Ajax, and used that time to "heal" and study to prepare for his return to the coaching position.
However, his experience at West Ham United has repeated the same mistakes. Although his novel training methods and clear communication skills made club insiders and players feel "unity" and "fresh" when he first took office, his coaching style is also considered to be lacking intimidation.
It is understood that some senior players suspected that he was "unable", which is similar to what he was dubbed "Harry" and "Hogwarts" by players when he was at Chelsea.
The continued poor record finally crushed him, and the huge pressure made him from a cheerful person to a defensive mind. What is even more ironic is that the fans' reactions have evolved from the "death threat" during the Chelsea era to the "network ridicule" during the West Ham United era. The article believes that the latter is even more hurtful because it means you have become a "laughing stock".
Now, Porter's reputation has fallen to the bottom. If he wants to make a comeback in the future, he must choose a club with consistent goals and stable environment.
