Potter takes ‘responsibility’ as Chelsea slip into bottom half FMTNews FMTSports
LONDON: Under-pressure Chelsea manager Graham Potter said he took responsibility after a 2-0 loss at home to Aston Villa today sent the Blues into the bottom half of the Premier League tables.
Defeat saw Villa leapfrog the hosts into ninth place, with the result leaving Chelsea, for so long used to being title-contenders, in 11th – below local rivals Fulham – and five points off any European spot.As for the jeers of the fans, the former Brighton boss added: “We can feel the pain of the supporters … I understand when you lose at home, the emotion of the game is such that people are going to be disappointed and frustrated and angry.
Watkins has been a central figure in that run, scoring 10 goals this season and looking a revitalised player since Emery replaced Steven Gerrard.“We’re trying to help him to use his characteristics and his skill in our shape. He is very demanding every day to try to practice. We think he can improve.”
