The challenge of being a manager was too big to turn down.
He will take charge of his first game in charge against Red Bull Salzburg.
Potter said that he had to look at the tradition, quality, size and ambition of the club.
It's a completely different challenge than the one I had at Seagulls.
I had a great time there, but I'm thankful to the owners for trusting me.
His main job is to help the guys that are here, help them improve and put a team on the pitch that the supporters are proud of.
Our identity should be recognisable so that we can create our own team. We'll keep fighting for it.
The Red Bull Salzburg side drew with AC Milan in their first Group E match, and then the day after they lost to Dinamo Zagreb in the first game of the group stage, they lost their coach as well.
"Off the top of my head, I don't think I've ever been to a European game," Potter said.
My experiences in the league are similar to those of a fan.
I've been to the group stage of the Europa League, winning at Galatasaray, but I haven't been to the knockout stages.
"Wherever we start it will be a great introduction, so why not start here?"
On the same day that Queen Elizabeth II died, Potter was appointed.
It was a mark of respect for the Queen that the football game was paused.
The home game against Red Bull Salzburg is taking place, but the premier league game on Sunday has been called off due to the Queen's funeral.
Potter's first top-flight match will be at Crystal Palace after the international break.
Potter said that they had to make a decision immediately. It was very intense and there were a lot of discussions.
I had a good feeling for the owners. Good people are what they are. People with an understanding of what they want to accomplish.
They have a plan and that was exciting.
The challenge was too large to decline. It made sense for me.
This is an amazing football club and an amazing challenge for us and I will always be respectful and thankful for them.
Todd Boehly says he is considering a multi- club model as a way to develop young players.
The new co-owner said that Manchester City and the Red Bull teams were successful examples.
Boehly said the German didn't have a shared vision for the future while speaking at the conference.
Boehly wants to continue to build out the footprint by having a multi- club model.
When you have young superstars at the club, you loan them to other clubs, but you put their development in someone else's hands."
"Our goal is to show pathways to young superstars to get on the pitch while getting them real game time." It's possible to do that through another club in a competitive league in Europe.
