Chelsea have sent a plea to their fans to remain with the team after yet another loss. This time the defeat was at the hands of fierce London rivals Tottenham and comes as the third blow in a week that has seen Graham Potter come under increasing scrutiny.
Having been bettered by bottom of the table Southampton there was hope that a derby would be the perfect chance to respond for Potter and his players but there was little to support this come full time. Spurs' 2-0 win means it is now just one win in 11 games for the Blues.
Oliver Skipp's first goal for Tottenham moments after half-time was enough to put the wheels in motion for another tough afternoon, especially with such a poor attacking record in recent weeks. Potter has only seen his team net four times in the past 11 games, leaving them closer to the relegation zone than the top four.
