John Terry's Graham Potter prediction proven wrong after Chelsea sack as manager admission made

John Terry has revealed his stance on management as Chelsea start a search for their third manager of the season. Graham Potter, who only replaced Thomas Tuchel in September, was sacked after just seven months in charge.

In the wake of the team's 2-0 loss to Aston Villa on Saturday Potter was removed from his post less than a year into his lucrative five season deal. It came with his team sitting 11th in the league table. Having impressed at Brighton his failure at Stamford Bridge now reflects badly on the new owners who ditched Champions League winning boss Thomas Tuchel after just seven games.

Terry, who is yet to land his first managerial job since retiring as a player, has been a big advocate for Potter throughout. "It's been five years since we won the Premier League. Is that going to change this year? No," he admitted openly earlier this season.
