Chelsea boss Graham Potter has come under immense pressure from the media and many Chelsea fans this week.
Frustrations and concerns have boiled over after Chelsea lost 1-0 to Southampton last weekend, and many fans have been calling for him to be sacked. It’s been the talk of the week amongst top media outlets as well, most of whom have been reporting that the club are still backing Potter for now, and many even believe for the long-term future.
But a lot of negative things have been written as well, such as the players turning on him as well and some whispers that he has lost the dressing room.
Well Potter himself says that is not the case and in fact, he continues to receive incredible support from his players as they go through a tough moment. Enzo Fernandez has even backed that up with his recent comments too.
Enzo Fernandez: “When you get that amount of young lads and we’ve all had 20 days to get to know each other, when you’re talking about the standard of football here, it’s hard to gel as a team. But we’ve been given all the tools we need by the coaching staff and the manager.”

Potter’s latest words, can be found here….
Potter on backing from the squad:
“If I felt that I had lost the changing room […] if I felt there was a bad feeling in Cobham, my feeling would be different.
But the one-to-one chats I’ve had with pretty much all the players, there’s incredible support there.”#cfc pic.twitter.com/rpPi9O4zDS
