Graham Potter is still under pressure at #Chelsea. One win over Leeds is not enough to ease the tension, especially if he follows that with an early Champions League exit.

#HalfTime

That was some half😁. It has had it's problems .. but probably the best half have seen of Potter era. We've become lazy and casual after the goal though so we may need to check on that. Havertz should be credited for holding the ball brilliantly for that goal. Almost everyone has been brilliant in the first half. Kouly, Cucu and FoF look like they have played together for a while, the front three so industrious, Enzo and Kovacic marshalled the mid brilliantly, sterling has been a work horse, James and Chilwel briliant in the wingbacks... Basically everyone has been fantastic. I hope we close down Dortmund better though in our final third and restrict their half movements

Our spacing feels a lot more natural in an on-ball 3-4-3. Easier passing angles and players closer. Will improve when/if Koulibaly manages to establish a clearer link to Enzo too.

We're pressing in a 4-4-2 and that helps hide Felix as well. A good showing by Potter so far.

Potter ran one specific "outline" very frequently at Brighton:

3 CBs in the first line, a midfielder flanked by 2 WBs in build up, the second central midfielder forming a "diamond" with 3 attackers.

Saw signs of that today for the first time in Potter's time at Chelsea.

2ND HALF

Mudryk is a better dribbler and better in linking up play than sterling. I have my doubts on his role as a support striker, but we can never rule him out completely unless he is afforded the minutes... The game is too open... He should be tried later... But we should never change the shape

Potter Di Mateo has nine lives

Cucurella receives his MOTM award

Replicate this in the Premier League please 🙏.
