The winter World Cup break has come at a good time for Chelsea and Graham Potter. The former Brighton manager has come under increasing pressure following the Blues' recent performances.
Chelsea's defeat at Newcastle on Saturday evening was the third in a row in the Premier League. In all competitions Potter's side have lost four out of the last five games played.
Following the loss at St James' Park, a handful of supporters began to ask questions of Potter, questioning the 47-year-old's ability to lead the club into a new era. But, as reported by football.london on Saturday, it seems just as many Blues fans have defended Potter and shifted the blame onto Todd Boehly.
