It seems like ages since we last did play,
But with injuries plaguing, it’s been good to delay.
I’m fed up with hearing of Tottenham’s plight,
All clubs have unavailable players in the fight!
With a poorly balanced squad, it’s clear,
Injuries hit hard, that’s cost us dear.
Hopefully, some will return to the scene,
With Ferguson up front, a future bright and keen.
Out of the cups, fifteenth we stand,
No Europe to chase, but survival’s in hand.
Ten points clear of relegation’s call,
A calamitous run needed for us to fall.
With Potter in charge, progress we see,
Looking to next season, that’s the key.
Performances to cherish, up the table we’d love,
Maybe the top half, or ninth or above?
Facing Arsenal and Newcastle, tough matches ahead,
Brentford and Leicester, we could win those instead?
Brentford’s away record, second worst we know,
A chance to get closer with a victory to show.
Talent abounds, no doubt in my mind,
Ferguson, Kudus, Summerville, Bowen combined.
Paqueta, Ward-Prowse, Soler, and Soucek too,
There’s goals in that talent, oppositions will rue.
Ferguson’s arrival is a welcome sight,
Though later than hoped, it still feels just right.
Potter knows him well, a debut at Brighton,
But a straight loan deal, not sure that’s the right’un!
If he succeeds, Brighton may gain,
But West Ham’s joy will not be in vain.
Ward-Prowse’s return, I do cheer,
Goals and assists, he’ll surely bring here.
Irving’s emergence, a joy to behold,
Opportunities given, stories unfold.
Potter’s guidance, a thoughtful touch,
Fourteen games left, we expect much.
I like how Potter’s seen the light,
In academy talents, he’s got it right.
Scarles and Orford have joined in the dance,
Hopeful others too will be given their chance.
Criticism’s been made on the squad’s age,
With Potter in charge we’ll turn a new page.
Guilherme had a run out, a glimpse to see,
Skill and speed, he might just be?
The Chelsea game, we were unlucky indeed,
Bowen fouled, and offside we plead.
VAR took ages, goal two a deflection,
Our play restricted them but not quite perfection.
Defensively stronger, Potter’s made his mark,
Coufal and Cresswell a surprise renewed spark?
Kilman’s happier? Todibo’s next test,
Encouraged by Potter, can he show his best?
Tim Steidten’s departure, inevitable it seems,
Kyle Macaulay arrived with new dreams.
Sullivan’s control is recruitment’s fate,
Steidten’s reputation is now of late.
Brentford’s away record, once awful to see,
Five games were lost, but now two victories.
Last February, Bowen’s three silenced the din,
Six goals were shared in a 4-2 win.
Earlier this season, a draw we did claim,
Soucek’s equaliser to match Brentford’s game.
It’s looking much brighter so is there a reason
With Potter in charge a good end to the season?
