Graham Potter held crisis talks with his back-room staff on Tuesday to thrash out a plan to improve Chelsea's calamitous form.
The Blues are on the brink of dropping into the bottom half of the table after winning just one of their eight Premier League games since the turn of the year. They hit a new low last Saturday when Potter and his players were booed off after a 1-0 defeat at home by rock-bottom Southampton.
Chelsea were forecast to challenge for silverware ahead of the season and club supremos, led by Todd Boehly, stumped up another £300million on transfers in the January window. Despite seeing no return on their investment so far, Blues chiefs are standing by Potter for a number of reasons.
