Graham Potter unlocks potential in Chelsea's next 'Cesc Fabregas' in crucial win vs Leeds

Graham Potter may have found Chelsea's next Cesc Fabregas as the Blues finally picked up a win after a poor run of results in the Premier League. Wesley Fofana headed home from a Ben Chilwell cross in the second half against Leeds to seal all three points on a crucial afternoon for Potter and his side.

After a poor display in the first half, which saw fans boo their team off the pitch at half-time, Chelsea responded with a better showing in the second half and were able to hold on to secure a vital win. It was reported prior to kick-off that Potter needed to pick up wins against Leeds and Borussia Dortmund to save his job at Stamford Bridge as pressure built on the former Brighton boss.

Midfield has been an area of concern for the Blues this season but the addition of Enzo Fernandez in a British record-breaking transfer in January has helped address that problem. The Argentine midfielder has been a shining light in a dismal run of results and showed his quality once again in the win against Leeds.
