"We're delighted with the win because we've had a tough period," a visibly relieved Graham Potter told reporters after Chelsea beat Leeds United 1-0. "I'm delighted for the players and supporters who have had to suffer."
Suffer is one word for it. This win was a long time coming for Chelsea supporters. 48 days to be exact. That's when the Blues last won a match. Ironically, that was also a 1-0 win at Stamford Bridge, against Crystal Palace.
Wesley Fofana's fantastic header in the early moments of the second-half ensured a much-needed three points for the hosts in front of an anxious Stamford Bridge crowd. Understandably anxious, to be fair, after seeing the way their side have performed since the turn of the year.
