The wife of Chelsea defender Thiago Silva has liked a tweet which calls Graham Potter a “deadbeat” manager who “doesn’t know what he is doing”.
Potter is under huge pressure at Chelsea following their embarrassing 1-0 defeat by managerless Southampton on Saturday. Saints are bottom of the Premier League and had just one win from their previous 11 league games, but still came away from Stamford Bridge with three points thanks to James Ward-Prowse’s free-kick.
Chelsea have lost nine of their last 15 games in all competitions and sit 10th in the Premier League, 11 points adrift of the top four. Potter has won just nine of his 25 matches in charge since succeeding Thomas Tuchel in September and was booed by the Blues fans on Saturday.
