Todd Boehly has been warned that the appointment of Graham Potter could cost Chelsea qualification to the UEFA Champions League. The 47-year-old replaced Thomas Tuchel at the helm of Stamford Bridge just days after the summer transfer window slammed shut following two games without a win.
Potter will be eager to pick up the first win of his Blues tenure as Crystal Palace host the west Londoners at Selhurst Park on Saturday. Chelsea currently sit seventh in the Premier League on 10 points and remain some way from top-four, let alone rivals Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal who sit in third and first respectively.
The international break will have given the former Brighton boss some time to plot a route into Champions League qualification places for Chelsea. But, former Blues defender Robert Huth believes that the race could already be over with Potter incapable of competing with Mikel Arteta, Antonio Conte, Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp.
