Graham Potter’s first Chelsea loss came in a disastrous manner as his former club who have been winless for a while stunned him and his new side, 4-1.
Share:Potter replaced Thomas Tuchel after the German was shockingly sacked weeks ago and have managed to go 9 games without a loss until their humbling defeat on Saturday.
Speaking on his sack, Tuchel suggested that what happened to him could clearly happen to any manager in the industry.
Despite his 5-year long term deal, Graham Potter definitely must have it at the back of his mind that the wind can suddenly take a different turn.
Chelsea scoring two own-goals help severe the weight of their loss against Brighton who haven’t until Saturday won Chelsea since 1933.
Leanadro Trossard rounding Kepa early into the game helped the host go up in front before Trevor Chalobah and Reuben Loftus-Cheek added salt to the injury with their own goals.
Just like Potter suggested, the new era needs a while to settle and the ownership understands this, no wonder they handed his a very long contract when they bought his contract from Brighton & Hove Albion.
Meanwhile Tuchel may have just sent wake-up message to Graham Potter as he explains his time at Chelsea.
“I loved everyday at Chelsea, it came to an end too early for me but it was out of my hands, this is also what you sign up for,” the former Chelsea manager said.
“We played the role of the underdog in the champions league, there was many games I was really happy with.”
