Chelsea goalkeeper Edouard Mendy has been told he has made it too ‘easy’ for Graham Potter to drop him in place of Kepa Arrizabalaga this season.
The Senegalese no.1 began the 2022/23 campaign as first-choice between the sticks for the Blues under Thomas Tuchel, starting their first six Premier League matches, yet he has failed to make a single appearance since the German was sacked in early September.
A recurring knee injury didn’t help Mendy’s case upon Potter’s arrival at the club, but former Chelsea defender William Gallas believes he has made life difficult for himself due to his previous mistakes in the early part of the season.
