Chelsea boss Graham Potter has been warned that his newly-inherited dressing room 'looks a mess' ahead of the Blues' clash with Liverpool next weekend. With Queen Elizabeth II's funeral at Westminster Abbey on Monday, September 19, it remains to be seen whether Stamford Bridge will welcome Jurgen Klopp's side to west London the day prior.
Hundreds of thousands of people are expected to visit London over the coming days so it would present a sizeable task for the police and security to juggle several high-key events, with Brentford versus Arsenal also scheduled for the same weekend. But, assuming Chelsea's clash with Liverpool goes ahead, Potter will be make his Premier League debut as Blues boss.
However, it won't be plain sailing. Potter has inherited a squad which is said to house a number of players who were seeking exits over the summer; it is his job now to weather the storm while also implementing his philosophies on the pitch.
