Jurgen Klopp gives honest Graham Potter Chelsea sack verdict with Julian Nagelsmann prediction

Jurgen Klopp has spoken out on a crazy week for managerial sackings after Graham Potter became the latest in a long line of bosses to lose their job in the past week. The 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa on Saturday proved a step too far for even the patient Todd Boehly-Clearlake Capital axis, who are now on the search for their third manager in 10 months.

Potter's dismissal was the fourth high profile sacking of the past 10 days after Bayern Munich axed Julian Nagelsmann last week, appointing Chelsea fan favourite Thomas Tuchel. Antonio Conte was the next to go, being sacked by Tottenham at the end of the international break following his attack on the club's mentality and history.

Then on Sunday there was a quick one-two with Brendan Rodgers sent packing from Leicester after their last minute loss to Crystal Palace. Potter followed him hours later with the Chelsea statement saying: "Chelsea would like to thank Graham for all his efforts and contribution and wish him well for the future."
