Chelsea manager Graham Potter has said he "understands the supporters' frustration" after the away end at Etihad Stadium broke out into chants directed at Thomas Tuchel and Roman Abramovich. The duo, who both departed their roles at Stamford Bridge in 2022, were the recipients of chants from a disgruntled Chelsea away following after Manchester City embarrassed the Blues with a 4-0 thrashing in the FA Cup third round.
Chelsea were haunted by Mahrez, for the second time in four days after he struck the winner at Stamford Bridge, who struck a delightful free-kick past Kepa Arrizabalaga before Kai Havertz then bizarrely handled inside the penalty area from a City corner with a spot kick then converted by Julian Alvarez, with Chelsea fans insisting he should be sold in the summer.
A sweeping Man City move from left-to-right finished off by Foden made it 3-0, with Mahrez then adding another from the spot in the second half after a clumsy foul by Kalidou Koulibaly on Foden.
