The inevitable finally happened. Graham Potter has left Chelsea Football Club.
The 47-year-old was sacked from his role on Sunday evening following the Blues' 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa 24 hours before. It's understood senior club officials held a meeting that lasted hours in the aftermath of the latest loss and decided on the night that Potter would be relieved from his duties the following day.
Despite the club insisting time and time again that Potter was the right man to spearhead the long-term project at Stamford Bridge, the ownership group changed its mind with the supporters growing increasingly frustrated with the situation. Chelsea now have the task of replacing Potter and making sure the next manager is the one they will be behind for years to come.
