Chelsea have been told that they must allow Graham Potter time to fulfil his vision at Chelsea despite their current terrible run of form in the Premier League.
That's according to former Chelsea and Arsenal midfielder Emmanuel Petit, who says that the Blues must follow the example of the trust shown in Mikel Arteta by Arsenal owner Stan Kroenke. The Spaniard endured a tough start to life ion north London, failing to qualify for the Champions League in his first three seasons before leading the title race this term.
Potter has been brought in by Todd Boehly to implement his long-term vision at the club, but recent results have been less than inspiring and could lead to a change of approach. Sunday's 2-0 defeat to Tottenham extended Chelsea's winless run in the Premier League to six matches, with three successive defeats in that time.
