Interesting take. I had some similar observation during that dreadful first half. It looks quite 4-4-2 to my eye, and there was an absence of refinement in their tactical approach, almost going man for man all over the pitch, and hoping to overturn Southampton by the sheer quality Chelsea players have over their counterpart. It might have worked the other day, but the state of Chelsea was so fragile, and they were on the backfoot from Minute-one.

He's shown that he can coach players that are much worse in terms of ability. It's not as if there's no plan, sometimes players just don't respond to it and that's a cultural issue. Honestly, he needs a core group of leaders. Any good team has that but at Chelsea you'd be hard pressed to find it.

He’s clearly a great coach, but not an elite one. That for me is the simple difference. As a Chelsea fan, I’m used to seeing elite mangers come and go. I’d LOVE to see a homegrown coach succeed here. And I also know, having an elite coach doesn’t always work out. There’s no guarantee of success… but my word, there’s a much bigger chance, right? With Potter, it feels he’ll fall into the category of a “nearly world class” manager. The ones like Moyes, Rodgers, Martinez, Redknapp (just a few off top of my head) who we all respect, acknowledge they’ve done a great job wherever they go but seem to lack whatever is needed at the very, very top. Chelsea is an elite club. It needs an elite coach. Especially now with all these new players in, the level of talent is incredible rn. He lacks an aura that I’d associate with a Chelsea coach.

Moyes got Everton and West Ham into Europe. Rodgers got Leicester into Europe and won the FA Cup. He finished 2nd with Liverpool and was in the title race. Martinez won the FA Cup with Wigan. Redknapp was top 4 with Spurs. The best Potter has achieved is one of the lowest points totals for 9th in recent years and is struggling to better that with Chelsea.

It's surreal to think Chelsea just spent more than several national competitions on players who I've no idea will be any good.

short answer: yes long answer: HELL YES DUDE!

So let me get this straight.You're saying he's changed his system and approach because it wasn't working. He then gets loads of players bought in for huge money and then tries to rely on those players' quality to win the ball back and progress the ball forward,rather than having a clear identity of what he wants his players to do in those stages of play. So if he's the coach..what exactly is he coaching? Sounds to me like he's been given all these players but didn't really ask for them,and is fumbling desperately to find a way to get the best out of them in any way he can,rather than have a clear identity and have the players fit that system. So now he's throwing his principles and system out the window and relying on their quality to carry him out. That's not going to work.

Yup he's been changing the starting lineup way too much. He should've been upfront with the players that they are going to have to fight for their position in the squad as there is obviously way too many of them in excess.

With Potter inheriting the poor existing attackers that got even Tuchel sacked, the onslaught of first team arrivals to bed in midseason, and the massive amounts of injuries to key players. I'd evaluate at the end of the season and go from there. Top 4 is already out of reach, relegation is not realistic, sacking him any earlier helps nobody, and tbh is not a true reflection of his ability or the situation at the club.

Totally agree. I’m willing to lose a few more games and let him work it out. He inherited a disjointed team of players that even Tuchel was struggling with towards the end of his tenure. Ppl seem to forget that there were already fans asking for Tuchel to go towards the end. Because of the sanctions that were imposed we couldnt buy early in summer and eventually made knee jerk buys like cucurella, Koulibaly Aubameyang. We then had a series of injuries to chillwell, James, Forfana, Sterling, Pulasic, and RLC. Who let’s face it not all have returned to their full fitness. James doesn’t look like he’s playing back to 100% yet. Potters now been given a load of new players who have just come from different leagues, countries, personalities and playing systems. And we’re all expected for all these new players to hit the ground running…. Get real ppl. It ain’t going to happen for some time. Most managers need a whole close season plus half a season just to get a team playing to his way…. It happened at Forrest with Steve Cooper. Too many players at once and he’d struggled but he’s slowing turning it around. As much as Abramovich gave us huge silverware the constant hiring and firing of managers has caught up with us and we still have players who played under Di Matteo. That was 8 managers ago… crazy! And even if they sack Potter. Who’ll will replace him…. Some ppl are saying Tuchel? The same guy who back in September I was reading plenty of fans saying he’s ‘gotta go’. I wish real fans would back their team through thick and thin and show support for any manager.

At some point, no Expected whatever can hide the fact that a manager/team isn't performing as they should be and something needs to be done.

When Potter took over at Brighton we were a relatively small club that had won promotion to the Premier League for the first time in decades and had barely staved off relegation for two seasons under Hughton. He inherited a poor squad flirting with relegation, so it's to be expected that his win percentage at Brighton was poor, especially in his first 2 seasons. He, the backroom staff and Tony Bloom transformed us from a boring relegation candidate into a mid-table club in 3 years, despite playing a riskier and more exciting brand of football. Potter might not have done well at Chelsea so far, but he defnitely did well at Brighton.

He hasn't given Chelsea fans any reason to think he is the man for the future even if they are bad atm. Small things like how he speaks to the media or about referee decisions are put more onto the spotlight when they lose. He's giving me Moyes at United vibes.

Unluckiness?? We should have been 2-0 down in that first half..we were absolutely rubbish, the only reason why xG is high is cos we were desperate and went end to end in second half to score a goal not cos we played well

There's something fundamentally weak about Potterball at the moment no doubt. But Potter does have the potential to firm up this team to a system of football that works or at leasts gives his successor a leg up

Wow, that info graphic with the injuries is absolutely stunning!

Sometimes good managers just aren't cut out to make the step up to a big club. At United we saw that with Moyes, and for me, it looks like that with Potter at Chelsea. But if I were a Chelsea fan; I'd be far more worried about Boehly having become their own Woodward... that should terrify them.

Any coach coming into Chelsea had the worst possible job to come into. Hes been at the club for 5 months. Realistically his time with the majority of players is significantly less than that though. The ripple effect from the sanctions has been huge with no club structure for half a season and limited time to really work with players because of an international break before the world cup, massive fixture congestion, then the world cup, then the worst injury crisis the clubs faced yet. For the last few months theres been very limited tactical flexibility because of the injuries. He was moving things around but not because be had a choice to move things in ways that would be optimal for results. He just had to bend the team around what was available and was having to pull players out of the academy clearly before they were really ready for 1st team football. Now there are options but the cohesion needs far more time than hes had to develop. Half the squad has been injured for half the time hes been at the club. You have a player like Wesley Fofana coming back that has as many games played for Chelsea as the January signings. Then half the available squad was bought in January. Thats 7 players hes only had since January to really work with on the pitch. Then you've still got a load of other injured players gradually making their way back that hes not had the chance to work with much or at all in the case of Kante. Some of these players under Potter will be lucky to have had a months worth of his coaching in the 5 months Potter has been in.

Surely then the last argument about using a more basic tactical structure to let the newer signings flourish is down to the better quality of the newer players and nothing to do with the tactical adjustment?

Also, the xg and xga graph 'getting better' does not include the difficulty of the opponent which has clearly had an impact on the numbers

Really nice video 👍

One thing adjacent to one of your point here: the reason potter plays in a more traditional set up, without the early flexibility, could be that he has tons of new players and wants them to gel before trying to get them playing with more fluidity. However it is sort of difficult to do when you have 31 players in your squad.

Then the new one should be one of these, Urs Fischer Union Berlin, Christian Streich Freiburg, Oliver Glasner Eintracht Frankfurt. Or if they do not accept then Louis Enrique. But a modern german manager would bring in control and discipline with human understanding too. Glasner would be my favourite.

Y'all are trying so hard man, it doesn't matter how you win or how you lose if you keep losing the same way then there's a problem

I think part of the question is whether a manager is responsible not just for tactics but also "getting the best out of the players." The question then becomes whether the performance in comparison to the XG is also a reflection on the manager!

When accounts like 'tifo football' 'Football Daily' recommend you players and managers for your clubs, be very very afraid. Just because his teams were decent at keeping the ball at a mid table team does not mean he is suitable for a big club.

Yep. You need a big personality to manage a big club.

The "really basic 4231" is not how it played out though, Madueke was deep enough to be starting from a RWB position, Mount never dropped back into midfield and DD.Fofana was roaming all over the pitch, not sitting as a 9. There's way more going on there but unfortunately nobody watches the game without looking at the scoreline so it's a futile argument to say that there's been improvements recently

Nottingham Forest are 6 points behind Chelsea after signing what seems like 30 players this season. They were a championship club. Using an excuse that it takes time for players too acclimatise to a managers style of play is nonsense, Potter just isn’t tactically good enough to manage a club with the expectations of Chelsea. They never should have sacked Tuchel

Why the re-upload?

When the underlying numbers were so bad compared to the previous two managers, any modest improvement is an upward trajectory. The sad reality though is the more simple the tactic Potter uses, the less coaching influence he has on the game and the more he has to rely on player talent to carry him because he’s not a fiery motivator. He’s not an Ancelotti or Mourinho who can rely on talented players to carry out a simple vision. Nor does he have the gravitas to carry a culture change at Chelsea. Every one pointing at Arteta as an example of sticking with needs to remember 1) Arteta won the FA Cup his first season, 2) came from a team who won the EPL, 3) has a clear vision of wanting to develop monsters and a history of doing that. Potter has a history of middling performances, no trophies of note, and developing underperformance. If his tactical nous was so crucial for Brighton’s success under him, why are they doing better after he left? Why are their players so sought after by other clubs? Were we all wrong and he was actually holding back a good side? Maybe. Everyday he’s there he looks more like Niko Kovic at Bayern than Julian Nagglesmann.

The xG barely looks like it’s improved at all, 1 game definitely isn’t a trend and it looks like a mess on the pitch

i am a chelsea fan. and having seen chelsea was absolutely destroyed by brighton under de zerbi, i think people already spotted that potter's flexibilty philosophy has so many weaknesses. to be honest i think he and the management staff should've already seen this happening by the abysmal form before the world cup. i don't know if potter already knew that his flexibilty didn't work or not, but in my optimism (or delusional) view, he knew but he can't solve the tactical problem and weaknesses due to injury. so when the winter transfer window is closed and many quality players are brought in, potter change his philosphy to be more standard one it takes time for this fundamental change to work but he is running out of time. both fans and boehly should expect some improvements in form sooner

Mourinho said it best. All these fancy stats are bullshit - look at his win rate and attitude. That’s what counts, not xG. He is finished at Chelsea.

Yes he’s out of his depth. No he won’t get sack because TB needs a docile employee. TB knows GP needs Chelsea, Chelsea doesn’t need GP; GP has no leverage. TB is not about creating a winning team. It’s about pumping valuations until he can flip the club for a massive profit, or leverage the club’s name to take out loans. Look at United, they’ve hardly won anything but yet remain one of the most commercially lucrative clubs. TB knows that winning trophies is just a nice to have. Especially so because it’s an expensive endeavour. Folks in the money game aren’t going to hinge upon how many trophies are there when valuating the club. It’s just not a significant determinant. It’s not a monetary asset because you can’t sell your trophies. What you can sell is players. You can see where TB has put his attention by looking at the money. The squad put together by TT is well strong enough. Surely it’s a stretch to think GP’s standards are so far beyond TT and what he can work with. There was no need for a “rebuild”. The spending spree is not about a squad rebuilds as much as it’s packing in hype (just look at who they’ve gone for). If trophies did matter, why would FP and co push for a non competitive ESL? If it were about testing one’s mantle, you won’t be fearful of entering the ring with the best. These folks just want more money. As long as there are players willing to sign to TB’s CFC for a fat pay cheque, it will keep TB’s plan going towards a fat exit. Trophies, wins are irrelevant. If it happens, great. TB could care less what comes of CFC once he gets his fat ROI.

any idea where they buy their retro jerseys from?

That kit goes HARD John. 🔥👍🏼 I think Potter is suited for this Chelsea role. These points support my opinion. It’s his first year y’know. Nobody in the prem has come in and done what they wanted. It takes time.

Completely agree! Build first. These guys did a video of that Japanese winger at Brighton and his decisions were always about building! And it worked!

Too much tinkering didn't go well for a former Chelsea manager. Statistics are fine on paper, but you need confidence to be successful, and that confidence comes from a manager that makes the players and fans believe that they are going to win, not one that accepts defeat philosophically. However, I could be more philosophical about defeats if I was paid the fortune that Potter is getting.

i think potter will return to his flexible tactical setup soon enough, but he’s new there and so are about half the squad, it’s just too much change at once to implement his tactics, needs to be a gradual change from something more basic

The problem is the Chelsea fans... after 2 decades of Roman they don't know how to be patient... judge him next season when the squad is closer to his choice and they have a proper striker/finisher.

All that talk to miss the main point. Potter is not the man for the job. Watching Chelsea under his management compared to under Tuchel’s it’s day and night. TT had a tactical knowledge and passion. You could see players improving and the way they were playing was attractive because of the team as a whole. Unfortunately, he was the one that got plagued with injuries and no reinforcements whatsoever. Potter comes in, does really Bad, and then gets a Mercato with Mudryk, Felix, Fernandez,Madueke, Gusto and so on. Still manages to do bad, the only difference? The quality of the players is seen. The football gets attractive because of the individual brilliance of some of these players and not because of the team effort. I can’t even begin to imagine what TT would have done with these reinforcements…

Newcastle'a doing it right

John Terry tweeted in August and said how good football Brighton are showing. Don't worry Chelsea fans.... Are you not playing good football now? Don't worry next season you will play better "good" football... Until you are tired.... Then you will look for a winning coach to help you with trophies.

I would like the same video about Nagelmann who's been looked at similary as Potter

The English has no top coach.... Don't expect Potter to be one. Potter is a midtable coach.... Jumping from Brighton to Chelsea is a big ask, similar to Lampard jumping from Derby to Chelsea... Chelsea is not a small club, don't get a small coach to lead them. There are elite coaches....there are midtable coaches.. Don't force Potter to become elite. To be a top and elite coach is much more than playing good football which is what Potter has done in Swansea and Brighton.... At Brighton, here and there, he got wins against Arsenal, City, Liverpool, Tottenham... But you have to check these matches to know the situations around it.... Even at Brighton he went about 8 games winless run several times, but no one cared because it's Brighton....

Poor from you not to include all injuries. Injuries to Kovacic for example haven't been included. There are others too.

Maybe we will see

It's awfully simplistic -- Chelsea have a lot of talented players but zero productive players. They have no game changers who can score or create a goal out of nowhere.

Chelsea being a basket case of a club, has something to do with it as well

Using stats to confuse people. The reality is what is the most important. Graham Potter is not that guy for Chelsea. Simple.

Chelsea seems more fit playing in a 4222 or 433 (either with a no10 or false-9) based on available players.

Mate, how many kits do you own?

I am not a chelsea fan but their transfer window was very weird, when you don't have a manager with a philosophy and a strategy to integrate the new signings the money looks like it was just burnt, It felt like a kid playing FIFA and buying players, I am not saying the signings were bad (Badiashile is great) it just that if they had a proper manager (tuchel maybe) they could have benefited way more of the money they spent, what they need is a manager that would be able to make the most out of the players they signed, and integrate them into the team, and It should be soon before players start loosing confidence and thus effect their performance and progress.

I really don't see him as being out of his depth, he's shown a lot of the qualities you want in a great manager. But for me he needs time. Chelsea have pretty much bought another team since he came in, so that's more players that he needs to understand and get to gel, that's not easy and everyone thought Forest would be done for (at the start of the season) due to similar reasons. But given how the Chelsea fans can be and how the owners seem to want an instant result, I'm not sure he's got that much time to left

Boehly / Clearlake Cap have brought a private equity operating style to the Premier League. This means Boehly / Clearlake need to deliver ~20% ROI (I made up the number, but it’s a large number to attract investors no matter what) annually to investors. The typical PE investment period is 4 - 6 years with year 1 being the re-organization year, with mediocre returns. Year 2 and beyond are when superior results are expected. Private equity firms will challenge orthodoxy when they sees an opportunity. Thus the long contracts with young stars - in - the - making. Potter has a history of developing players, too. Potter has had to rebuild essentially from scratch mid - season and with players who likely won’t be around next year (e.g. Ziyech, Pulisic, Jorginho). I agree with Tifo’s analysis. It indicates that Boehly’s / Clearlake’s strategy is working. They are building for the future, and will earn substantial royalties once the team achieves pre - eminence again.

I tried to be patient with Potter but if you look at Ten Hag and Eddie Howe and even the guy that replaced him at Brighton, how they transformed their teams in such a short period of time you have to question Potter what is he doing?

The same way I watched ziyech at Ajax and even with all the applause he got there.... I never wanted him at chelsea. Cos I saw he was not good enough... The same as Leao at AC Milan.

I did the statistics check and I realized the time it would take graham potter would be way more than 3 years

Yes he is. He needs to realise he's at one of the biggest teams in England & stop trying to make everyone happy

The thing about them underperforming their xpts is that that was exactly how it was for most of his time at Brighton until the end of last season and the beginning of this one

massively, potter is one of those managers i didn’t know much about before his fame at chelsea. if you actually look at his career stats you’ll see why he’s tanking. 90% of his managerial career was spent in the allsvenskan and at a club that no longer exists. up until 2019 he had never managed a side in a top 5 european league 😭 this man is so far out of his depth it’s staggering to look at.

Love that jersey 😉

Our passing and moving is just too slow, physically moving the ball along the ground. Every time we came close to the Southampton penalty area or goal, there were a team of players in the way, no-one got a clean shot off, we're not generating high value shooting chances and our players confidence is so shattered that they miss chances they should take.

As a rival fan I'm loving the state that Chelsea are in right now. But I know that if Chelsea write off this season and focus on developing, by this time next year they will be so much better. I also think Potter needs to go back to go forward. Stick with simple tactics and get results till the summer. Then Chelsea need to show discipline with their credit card and think about 1 or 2 out goings. Suck it up Chelsea fans, there's no short cut to victory.
