It’s a massive weekend for Chelsea and Graham Potter as they travel away to the club’s biggest rivals, Tottenham Hotspur.
The Blues make the trip across London sat 10th in the table and with just two wins from their last 12 league matches.
The pressure is now really mounting on Potter and whilst the club still back their manager, there is a key factor that could force them to change that stance…

Chelsea are wary of the growing unrest from supporters over Graham Potter, according to ESPN.
The fans booed Potter’s team off the pitch following their 1-0 defeat to Southampton last Saturday.
He is now under serious pressure from the fans to turn things around quickly.
They are understanding of the situation given his limited time at the club to implement his methods and the need to move players on.
However, if things continue to get worse, this stance could very quickly change, with tensions amongst supporters already running high.
Chelsea are 10th, 11 points off the top four, and 23 points off top spot.
A reporter told Graham Potter that @ChelseaFC fans were calling him ‘the worst manager in the club’s history’ 😳
