Graham Potter understands the anger and frustration of supporters after Chelsea's' dismal run of results and admits the 1-0 defeat to bottom-of-the-table Southampton at Stamford Bridge was unacceptable.
Chelsea have taken just 21 points from the 17 Premier League matches overseen by Potter, who was brought in to replace the popular Thomas Tuchel at the beginning of September. The poor form has left the Blues tenth in the Premier League table and closer to the relegation zone than the Champions League places.
The nadir of Potter's tenure came at the weekend as Chelsea were beaten by a Southampton side who had lost nine of their previous ten league matches and had sacked their head coach, Nathan Jones, six days earlier. James Ward-Prowse's first-half free-kick was the difference between the two sides.
