Sky Sports are previewing Chelsea’s game against Arsenal tomorrow, and the subject of Graham Potter came up. One of the pundits was sure he would be sacked if he didn’t reach the top 4, but others disagreed given there’s new ownership with new plans in place. We just don’t know what their MO is just yet.
We’d certainly hope he’d be given longer than that. Sacking Thomas Tuchel was a pretty wild decision, and can only be justified if we give his successor the time to succeed.
You can see the pundits debate the point in the clip embedded here:
🗣 "If they're not in the top 4 he ain't getting two transfer windows." ❌
