Ruben Loftus-Cheek reveals the Chelsea impact Graham Potter had when replacing Thomas Tuchel

Ruben Loftus-Cheek has revealed that Graham Potter has brought freshness to Chelsea since arriving in September, and the midfielder believes his teammates have benefitted from individual chats with his head coach.

Loftus-Cheek has started five of Potter's eight matches in charge so far and only missed out on making an appearance once this season, in Thomas Tuchel's final match against Dinamo Zagreb. The Cobham academy product has maintained a consistent presence in Chelsea's side across the two coaches and could be considered the Blues' standout central midfielder this season.

The 27-year-old believes he is starting to get a greater understanding of how to play with Jorginho and Mateo Kovacic as a result and has appreciated the role of conversations with Potter to help him kick on.
