summer signing Carney Chukwuemeka unused on his bench.

Chelsea’s owners contrasted the first 50 matches of Tuchel’s tenure with the second 50 and found only negative trends, with the defence suffering an alarming dip and the attack continuing to lack fluidity, imagination and ruthlessness.

Tuchel has no desire to take time away from football, and he is eager to continue his coaching career elsewhere as soon as possible.

Clear Message from Potters Appointment

Player power -a thing of the past:

Nobody employs any rookie and hands him a 5year contract with a heft pay than even what Tuchel himself was on with the aim of Shooting him at the Scruff. The earlier the fans get into their head the easier the ride is going to be. Not so long in the future, it will be the managers way or the highway for disagreeing players. Pott shares the owners reasoning and ideas. That will matter.

Transfers:

Dont expect the "I want that or that". Infact the time for the manager to moan is long gone. If the board decide its Adebayor Akifenwa, them its him that will come in. Potters role is drawn in the sand in the managements welcoming note. His work will be to coach and develop player.

Transfers based on purely stats as the owners have always said. By choice or by force, the coach will accent.

When losses come, Cry and Adapt:

Ofcourse Potter takes losses to the chin and finds his way back. For the fans, 😄 it will not matter how long it takes before the results turn around. People must learn now to adapt and move on even when losses come. Pott identifies himself mostly with one formation. A time for experiments with new formations will come when teams adapt to his style of play. People should have their panadols. Pott is a long term project.

More Academy graduates:
For people like Gilmour and Odoi, This will be their man. A man who develops ,motivates and organises average and young players through team foundation. But especially those new transfers in the academy, more of them will certainly find their way into the first team.

Revival is here:

From the current players, it is hard to see a player that will not fit with Potts. But there are some who will be more revatalised than others. Odoi, Pulisic will have looked at how Potts used wingers instead of wingbacks at Brighton and licked their lips. Kovacic, Zakaria people who love close dribbling will certainly love their midfield work. We may even see the Havertz who used to shoot at Leverkusen. Remeber the Ziyech shots at Ajax? If he can work on his defensive positioning he may save his face. Otherwise he may end up the first casuality of Potts era.

Revived Brotherhood:
The guy is a physycologist. Brighton were united to each other by sweat. Dying for each other. If the guy will never be tempted by the Tuchel ego and be players guy like Klopp, be sure of a united fighting team in the next five years and beyond.

Now , we wait to see how Potts can tactically adjust his thinking and player conviction when shit hits the fan.

According to TGG, Potter's recruitment expert Kyle Macaulay thinks how Graham thinks and knows exactly what Potter wants in terms of player profiles because of all their time together, and also looking at individual players. Kyle has a very analytical mind and is a good operator.

Exclusive : Todd Boehly is keen to copy City football group by setting up a network of feeder clubs and from there Chelsea will cherry pick the best young talent from abroad or the academy and send them off to their subsidiary to put their skills to the test.
