We have TEN men!! THAT is NOT Potters fault!

It’s all on Potter! When there’s no style, no pattern of play, no tactics, no game control you go a goal down because of it, the players become rash and desperate. That’s exactly what happened.

SO glad I missed this game

Exactly, yet top 4 and a trophy seemed to be the minimum expectation of Tuchel from some fans, who are now completely fine with finishing mid table under Potter.

'some fans' are real fans and not gloryhunting fanboys!!  Some of us might know about the saga's of the 1970's when managers were being fired left right and centre the team ended up 4th from bottom of the 2nd Division before Bates finally backed the manager and done something about the players instead!! Guess what happened when we DIDN'T sack John Neal?

Felix won’t play in the PL until 11th February. Crazy

That one hope we had got redcarded on his first match. 

People say sacking Potter would send the message that player power wins, I raise you the idea of sacking Potter and bringing back Tuchel as the ultimate "Player Power doesn't win"

There's still time for a Tuchel mid-season Champions League charge.

Boehly should be happy this is what he wanted

2-1 defeats to midtable sides while Brighton had more shots are exactly the results Potter got praised for last season.

Who would do a better job? Genuinely curious. 

We do have better overall players than most of the teams, but its seems that Potter is not capable to get his team selection and tactics right in any games.

A Tuchel master stroke 

Wouldn't be surpised if Boehly had Potter in mind making that transfer, Tuchel wasn't exactly screaming for a LB

RUBBISH! You think ANY other manager would beat Fulham away with only 10 players and THIS team!!!?

I don't see the owners doing that but I agree it would be a fascinating twist.

If Potter is booted tomorrow. Would that make Chelsea the first team to have 3 managers in one season?

This forum doesn't have enough bandwidth to list all the better managers than Potter in the game today

Even we had thirteen players on the pitch, we would still be sh*t - just in a slightly bigger amount.

Yes some players need recycling but this is all on Potter.

I suppose the club could try and appeal the red card but its unlikely

No. pretty sure Watford managed at least 3 although they still went down.

None of these hasbeens would play for either manager.

Tuchel lost 0-3 to Leeds while having his first 11 AND 10 men playing!!

It was pretty deserved to be fair

It feels like Moyes' reign at United. How can players have respect for a manager who has won less than them, and has a 'small club' mentality to approach and tactics?

Who are you? Potter’s son?

Maybe, maybe  not given the issue with injuries. We wouldn't be as offensive that's for sure. Maybe we would have had a few extra points, but the way he started the season I'm not so confident. But he's gone,  so who else?

Alonso Was Going, Azpi Was Going, Chilwell Injured Last Season, Needed Another LB So Was A Big Need

It generally always comes down to the manager. They set the tone, create the atmosphere and the expectations.
