Even journalists are taking the p*ss out of Graham Potter as they joke about his 'dressing room'

A journalist hilariously poked fun at Graham Potter after Chelsea's hectic January transfer window ahead of their match against Fulham.

The Blues made a whopping EIGHT signings during the transfer window, spending a staggering £323.3 million on new talent.

Joao Felix arrived at Stamford Bridge on loan from Atletico Madrid, while the club spent big on the likes of Mykhaylo Mudryk and Enzo Fernandez, who completed a British record fee on deadline day.

Some of their new players snapped up during January could feature against Fulham as they resume their Premier League campaign tonight.

And ahead of speaking to the press, Potter was involved in a brilliant exchange with a reporter during his pre-match press conference.

The Chelsea boss took his seat and made reference to the number of reporters in the room, saying: "Afternoon, there's a few in!"

One of the reporters in attendance hilariously replied: "It's like your dressing room in here."

Following a busy transfer window, Potter is backing the new signings to breathe new life into their faltering season.

"There is potential for that. I think new faces will give the group a lift," he said.

"The group has had a tough time with injuries and we’ve had some tough moments. New faces just lift everybody, and I think the quality of the players is exciting for everyone.

"It lifts the quality of the training sessions and mood, so we are looking forward to going out and playing in front of our supporters."

Chelsea haven't played a game since their goalless draw at Liverpool as they languish in 10th place in the table.

But a win over seventh-placed Fulham would see them leapfrog their London rivals.
