Graham Potter ‘has two matches’ to save Chelsea job as pressure intensifies

Graham Potter reportedly has two matches to save his job as Chelsea manager after their recent poor run of form.

Potter’s every move has been put under the microscope after Chelsea owner Todd Boehly splashed out over £300 million in the January transfer window on the likes of Enzo Fernandez, Mykhailo Mudryk and David Fofana.

The Stamford Bridge club were expected to climb up the table swiftly after the big spending but they are yet to click into gear.

Due to the sheer amount of players, it has been reported that Potter has had to shy away from his preferred method of putting on 11 v 11 matches during training in order to involve all players.

This has led to Potter struggling to maintain continuity during each session.

Potter said earlier this month: “There are challenges when you've got that many players.

“There are challenges in terms of what role they play because most players want to play. They want to play, be on the pitch and help the team. When they are not, it is a challenge and it is a challenge for lots of reasons at this football club.

“When you go through a period of transition and the steps we've gone through then there are going to be periods when it is going to be tougher than you ideally want – it's not optimal. I am not complaining about it and I have to do my best to support and manage the club. Step by step I want to put the team in a better place than when I arrived.”

Will Potter manage to turn Chelsea’s form around? Only time will tell.
