"I just spoke in there (the dressing room) and said he deserves all the praise that's going to come his way, he deserves every single minute of it. Because you know he probably feels like he should have had more opportunities this season. And that's normal when you train the way he does and you apply yourself the way he does and the opportunities that he has had this season, he has taken."
"So for him to get the start today (is fully deserved), the only disappointment was the goal got disallowed. I was really hoping that goal would have stood. But apart from that I really can't speak highly enough of him. A really good person, really wants to work well. To have him as a teammate and see him get the opportunity and take it, like I said he deserves everything that's going to come his way tonight."
Graham Potter was criticised during his time at the club for his handling of Freddie Potts. Freddie Potts did not get many first-team opportunities under Potter despite being highly rated. Nuno Espirito Santo has given Potts more chances, and Potts produced strong performances against Everton and Newcastle United. Jarrod Bowen praised Potts, saying he deserved playing time and suggested Potts probably felt he should have had more opportunities earlier. Potter previously chose Guido Rodriguez over Potts; Rodriguez has been described as mediocre and is now linked with a possible exit. Potts is regarded as talented and will seek to establish himself as a regular.
