'Enough is enough' - Chelsea legend makes Graham Potter claim amid Kai Havertz criticism

Chelsea legend Frank Leboeuf has delivered a damning verdict on a number of different Blues topics including Graham Potter, Kai Havertz and Mason Mount. Manchester City secured a second victory over Chelsea in four days, but after a positive display against the champions in the Premier League their FA Cup clash was a huge setback.

Riyad Mahrez scored the decisive goal at Stamford Bridge on Thursday and once again haunted Chelsea by netting the opener at Etihad Stadium with a delightful free kick. Kai Havertz then bizarrely handled inside the penalty area from a City corner with a spot kick then converted by Julian Alvarez, with some Chelsea fans even insisting he should be sold in the summer.

Phil Foden added a third before half time with Mahrez making four from the penalty spot after a clumsy foul by Kalidou Koulibaly on Foden.

Alan Shearer delivered a brutal verdict on Chelsea's first half display describing it as "pathetic" and "embarrassing" and ex-Chelsea defender Frank Leboeuf has also slammed many Blues stars for their display in Manchester.

Speaking on ESPN, the Frenchman said: "It’s enough. Enough is enough. Something has to be changed. That is not the club that I know. That’s not the club fighting for Europe and being a champion of Europe. You are so far away from being a champion of Europe.

"They’re shameful, they do nothing, Mr Havertz, what are you doing? Do something, you will be in the records for the Champions League but please, what else? Mason, I love you, from the academy, but come on, do something.

"I see players convinced of nothing and proving nothing. They showed disrespect toward the fans and Chelsea Football Club. I'm talking about so-called leaders, not the young players.

"I've never seen Chelsea so low. The players don't have the will, they don't have the guts, they don't have the courage to fight for their colours. They don't have pride."
