Graham Potter has defended Marc Cucurella after the left-back was booed by Chelsea fans when he came on in their Champions League trip to Borussia Dortmund.
The Spaniard has struggled for form since his £63million move to Stamford Bridge last summer and received jeers from the travelling supporters at the Signal Iduna Park as he replaced Ben Chilwell on Wednesday. Cucurella came on for the final 19 minutes as the Blues fell to a 1-0 last-16 first-leg defeat in Germany.
Cucurella isn't the only Chelsea star who has struggled this season, with a number of high-profile players also failing to live up to expectations as the Blues languish in mid-table in the Premier League. They have won just eight of their 22 Premier League matches, while also only winning one of their last seven matches in all competitions.
