Is Potter on the Chelsea chopping block already? – Sutton
Chelsea owner Todd Boehly may be concerned that the job may be too big for coach Graham Potter after their loss to Manchester City, says Chris Sutton.
Thursday’s defeat at Stamford Bridge was Chelsea’s fourth in their last six matches in all competitions. The Blues have won just half of the 16 games they have played since Potter replaced Thomas Tuchel at the helm in September and former striker Sutton believes the club’s new owner could opt to sack him if performances do not improve quickly.

He added: “They’ve spent a fortune and you feel for Potter in terms of key players being out tonight – Mount, Chilwell, James, Sterling having to come off early on. But it isn’t good enough – I don’t think anybody expected Chelsea to win this game tonight, they are not the team they once were, and how long will Todd Boehly give Graham Potter? It’s so difficult to see where this is going.”
