Chelsea’s new defeat against Manchester City this Sunday in the FA Cup (4-0) further weakens the position of its coach Graham Potter. And this, despite the declarations of intent of his bosses.
Graham Potter he was recruited to Chelsea on a long-term basis according to the London club’s owners. The latter, in the days preceding the match against Manchester City, had hinted that even a failure to qualify for the next Champions League would not have been synonymous with exemption for the Blues coach. But in the aftermath of the new disappointment against the Citizens (4-0), the question arises again about the immediate future of the English coach.
A season already over for Chelsea
Now knocked out of domestic cups and the Premier League, Chelsea see their season all but over in terms of ambition. But more than these disappointments, it is this new defeat and a heavy score that could tip the scales. In the last eight rounds of Premier League matches, Chelsea have achieved the fewest wins and scored the fewest goals. Brentford, Brighton and Nottingham Forest are among the teams to have taken points during this streak. It’s their worst league record since 2010, along with their first FA Cup third round exit since 1999, recalls Sky Sports.
Fans are calling for Tuchel to return
Since becoming Chelsea team boss, Graham Potter he was dealing with a band he hadn’t composed. The Blues have not been spared from injuries either: “Never experienced anything like this” the manager said a week ago. But the fans don’t understand how such a successful team under Thomas Tuchel could have fallen so far. Hence the chants for a return of the former owner and former manager. The crisis is there. And the American owners will have to be strong if they decide to keep their current manager.
