Graham Potter's future at Chelsea continues to be the dominating topic from west London after calls for him to be sacked increased over the weekend. The Blues suffered a shock defeat at the hands of Southampton and in the following days, multiple managerial requests were made by Chelsea fans about the options who could replace Potter, but it looks as though he will be given more time at the helm.
Although Potter has managed just one win in 2023, football.london understands Todd Boehly and Behdad Eghbali – for now – remain supportive of him and his job isn't under immediate threat. With clashes against Tottenham and Borussia Dortmund on the horizon, Potter faces a crucial few weeks to get the supporters back on his side after loud boos emanated from Stamford Bridge at the full time whistle of the weekend defeat.
A number of new managers have been brought forward as possible replacements, with former Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino the early favourite. Following his dismissal from Paris-Saint Germain in the summer of 2022, Pochettino has not returned to management and the Chelsea job does not look likely to tempt him back into the fold, according to a new report.
