Chelsea legend Pat Nevin has come to the defence of under fire manager Graham Potter. Having lost 1-0 to managerless, rock bottom Southampton at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, the 47-year-old is under immense pressure.
Since taking over from fan favourite Thomas Tuchel in September things have been far from smooth sailing and that is only epitomised by the continued negativity around Potter. He and his side were booed off at both half-time and full-time against Saints, adding to the list of recent reactions in a similar vein.
The struggles Potter has had to deal with would likely have thwarted many managers from doing a stellar job but the underlying numbers are tough to argue with. One win in 10, three wins in 15 and just six goals since October. Marcus Rashford has scored three times more than the Blues in the past four months.
