Graham Potter set for surprise £130m call as Chelsea make Man City team selection decision

The games don't get any easier for Chelsea and Graham Potter. After being beaten 1-0 by Arsenal at the weekend, the Blues now face a trip to Manchester City in the third round of the Carabao Cup.

Chelsea were outclassed on Sunday afternoon in what was a fairly poor performance against the Gunners. Potter's game plan never looked like working. The Blues struggled to find the right balance between defending and attacking and were often left short up top when trying to break on Arsenal.

It was a really disappointing afternoon for the likes of Mason Mount, Raheem Sterling, Kai Havertz and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who all couldn't get into the game when Chelsea needed them most. With the trip to Premier League champions Man City just over three days after, Potter could be tempted to make numerous changes with a tough clash against Newcastle United to come at the weekend.
