Graham Potter applauded for double key Chelsea decision ahead of Man United clash

Graham Potter's first seven games in charge as Chelsea boss has been near-perfect, with five victories collected alongside two draws against RB Salzburg and Brentford. The Blues boss has made minor changes to the side that was used by Thomas Tuchel and he has reaped the rewards.

Chelsea currently occupy fourth place in the Premier League table after collecting 10 points out of a possible 12, leaving them seven points behind league leaders Arsenal. The change in fortunes is largely credited by the players inherited into the starting line-up by Potter.

Goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga was second fiddle behind Edouard Mendy in the opening six league games of the season, but has started all seven games under Potter - keeping five clean sheets. A string of fine performances to deny Aston Villa, Brentford and AC Milan has warranted the Spaniard to receive praise from pundits.
