Chelsea may have dropped an early team news hint ahead of their all-London affair with Tottenham on Sunday afternoon. The Blues are in desperate need of some form heading into the clash, sitting ten points away from the top four and drifting towards a mid-table finish this season.
It has led to mounting pressure towards manager Graham Potter, who has a task on his hands to try and find a winning formula. "It's really tough," the head coach said on finding a balance between managing the blend of a team and finding results.
"My quote a few weeks ago was that this is probably the toughest job in football, and there are a lot of factors for that. There was a sub-optimal pre-season – and speaking to a few of the experienced guys, they thought it was the worst pre-season they've had for different reasons. That isn't to blame anybody for the reasons. It's just that it happened."
