Chelsea are having the worst season they’ve had in a long time. They cannot seem to string together a consistent run of wins, despite being the highest spenders in Europe by a country mile. After their 1-0 loss to bottom of the table Southampton, Chelsea are 10th in the league.
They wouldn’t even be 10th if their London rivals Arsenal, who are top of the league, didn’t beat Aston Villa. Those are the levels that Chelsea fans are witnessing right now – being thankful that their main rivals won so they didn’t slip into the bottom half of the table.
And although they have a team full of individuals who won’t gel together, fans seem to think the manager is entirely to blame. So much so, that the hashtag #PotterOut is trending on Twitter. In all honesty, I’m surprised Chelsea haven’t sacked Potter already. If they were still under Abramovich, he would have been sacked after the first goal conceded.
It shows how time changes, and Chelsea is seen as a business nowadays as opposed to a football club who strives for success. It’s sad to see, the fans deserve much better than this. Surely now it’s only a matter of time before Potter is sacked.
Let’s see what the fans have to say on Twitter…
#PotterOut trends on Twitter – Chelsea fans want Graham Potter sacked
Get potter out now. I agree with backing managers but this guy is a joke. Getting humiliated every game and I don't see nothing from him which makes me think we'll win games

It looks unlikely that Chelsea will change their performances under Graham Potter.
We're being outplayed by the bottom of the league at Stamford Bridge! And there are people who still believe that this guy can get us to another level because we played one good game, a game we didn't even win! And Boehly still thinks he'll turn into Pep! #PotterOut pic.twitter.com/qn3kFrRKsi

I haven’t seen a reasonable argument why Potter should stay.
