Going into the World Cup break, it was all doom and gloom around Chelsea.
The Blues had just lost their third Premier League game in a row against Newcastle United after another disjointed performance. Graham Potter, despite only being at the club a matter of months, was already having plenty of questions asked about him. Stamford Bridge wasn't a nice place to be. The atmosphere was a strange one.
However, as Chelsea returned to action on Tuesday evening against Bournemouth there was a sense of optimism. The supporters had missed club football after watching the dramatic World Cup exploits for the past month or so and Chelsea did not disappoint.
