Do we just keep having polls until he is sacked?!!

 

Still think it's too early and the way our luck went tonight he must have run over a few black cats recently but I must admit, right now, a battle to avoid relegation looks a real possibility. To go from Champions League winners to relegated in the space of two seasons takes some doing but if anyone can do it, Chelsea can.............!!

Until we can get polls where we can change our original choice then yes.

I've changed from yes to no.

I dont see anyone else fixing things in the short term with the players we have available. 

I think we have to hope we can get a right back asap so Azpi doesnt play anymore, and we desperately need a midfielder with Zakaria being the latest. 

Hopefully the next 3/4 weeks see James, Fofana, Chilwell, Sterling, new rb, new cm, then potter will have no excuses.

The players coming back from injury will give us our respectability back. I'm not saying we will be tearing trees up, but if you look at where we were in May /June last year, with the possibility of there being no Chelsea fc at all, then it puts today's situation Into perspective. Don't get me wrong, I'm far from happy with our league position, but, this sense of entitlement that we should be top 6 every year is crazy. Suck it up for now and look forward to the great Chelsea comeback. It will happen! 

He literally has at any given point a squad that is much better than Fulham. And Fulham doesn't have their best striker. And yet Potter still loses the match.

I don't think he's as bad as the results are at this point but he's clearly not capable of staying in the PL while being here.

No, I'd argue any manager would struggle with the class of players we have out with injuries, and the class of players we have signed.

Not saying he is the answer, but don't see any better option out there immediately.

Cant believe our fans think he is the main problem. The bang average squad is the biggest problem.

Unfortunately he has them performing like relegation candidates. No one would be calling for his head if they were performing average.

True Simon, but it is hard to argue against everything he said. And it summed up the way I feel about it too.

This is on the owners for me. Sacking Tuchel was suicide with this squad and I said at the time that if people thought things were bad under Tuchel, just wait until we see what happens with an inferior coach.

He shouldn't have got the job in the first place, he should be sacked, but he can't be sacked because his contract is so ridiculous and long that it would cost us an absolute fortune to get rid of him. The new owners have f**ked us and trapped us in a position we will just have to suffer through, and it's going to be really brutal. How bad will things get? I'm not ruling anything out, even the absolute worst.

Money can take a club to incredible heights, but in the wrong hands, it can ruin a club. I fear this could happen under this ownership. 

There's no point. The squad (which already isn't perfect) is so riddled with injuries that even top managers like Pep would struggle. Best to ride out the season with Potter and consider this an unlucky write-off season.

TT in 2022 was taking us backwards. He had transfer windows to fix problems and he never did. No singed no DM, no creator no backup RB and had us winning less home games than Leicester. Dont forget the boring football and constantly playing players out of position. Man profiled Gallagher as a like for like for Kante.

Potter has had loads of injuries, no pre season, average squad and a world cup. He just signed his 2nd first team player and he was our best player tonight. Give him time. Hiring and firing managers is one of the reasons we are in this mess.

He has many injuries, just signed his second first team player and he was our best player before sending off.
