Graham Potter reveals biggest Chelsea challenge with four 'extra' games amid Crystal Palace tie

Whilst Chelsea are playing more than a dozen games between now and the Premier League breaking up for the winter World Cup, Graham Potter's former team are only involved in nine.

The Blues have a manic October coming up with nine games in one month alone whilst Brighton only have six. Every midweek is full for Potter and his players now as a rush to finish the first part of the season strongly comes together.

For the new manager it may well feel like the start of a new season. It's been nearly one month since Chelsea's last Premier League match, a game Potter was still in charge of Brighton for when it happened. After the long break there will be no more excuses for Chelsea despite there being more reasons than ever to expect inconsistencies.
