GRAHAM Potter believes he is not a flag bearer for young British coaches.
As many as 70 per cent of the Premier League’s managers are not from the UK as clubs have hired coaches with from abroad rather than to younger unproven British coaches.
When asked if he felt pressure of being on of the most prominent young British coaches, Potter admitted he had not given it much thought.
He told UCFB: “I think the most important thing is that you realise if you want to be a coach it is about helping people, trying to improve them and trying to help the team.
“I know you have to get enough results and enough wins that keep you in a job, but in terms of whether I provide any inspiration or am a flag bearer for anybody else, I’m not sure.”
