Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink has encouraged Todd Boehly to give Graham Potter more time to prove himself at Chelsea. The 47-year-old faces an increasingly uncertain future at Stamford Bridge after a defeat to Aston Villa saw the Blues fall into the bottom-half of the table.
The west London outfit are now 11 points adrift of fourth-placed Tottenham. With qualification to UEFA competitions via the Premier League almost out of reach, Chelsea are under pressure to win the Champions League – but the holders, Real Madrid stand in their way.
Though not impossible, it'll certainly be a difficult challenge. Boehly will be demanding results as of now but Hasselbaink reminded the American billionaire that he replaced Thomas Tuchel for Potter because he wanted a project, not necessarily short-term success.
