Chelsea were on the wrong side of major penalty decision late into their Premier League clash against West Ham just over 10 days ago. With the game finely poised at 1-1, Conor Gallagher's goal-bound shot was blocked by the arm of Tomas Soucek, but no spot kick was awarded and the game ended all square.
The incident caused a lot of debate at the time and on social media with many furious a penalty was not given, however Graham Potter opted for a different approach. When was asked if he thought it was a handball, the Blues head coach said: "Looks it [obvious], but these are the little things that you need to go in your favour and at the moment they’re not. That’s life, nothing to complain about there, it’s just we have to keep working."
Potter's verdict on the decision seem to cause more uproar than the actual incident itself with Rio Ferdinand and Joe Cole particularly critical of how he handled the situation.
