Supporters of Premier League giants Chelsea have flooded to social media on Saturday evening, to make their feelings regarding the position of head coach Graham Potter crystal clear.
The Blues, of course, marked their return to action a short time ago.
Fresh off a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Borussia Dortmund, Potter and co. welcomed relegation-battling Southampton to Stamford Bridge, aware that nothing but a return to winning ways would suffice amid a nightmare stretch of form.
When all was said and done, however, once more, Chelsea’s efforts fell flat.
This came as a solitary moment of brilliance on the part of James Ward-Prowse proved enough to guide visitors Southampton to a shock three points in west London.
Of course a James Ward-Prowse free kick is the reason Southampton are beating Chelsea 🎯

And, as alluded to above, the Chelsea faithful have since pointed the finger of blame squarely in the direction of one man – Graham Potter.
In turn, the patience of even the most reasonable of Blues fans appears to have worn out, with just some of the social media backlash stemming from Saturday’s defeat showcased below:
Graham Potter has to go tonight.

Get Potter gone. Every player is getting worse under him and as a team we’ve only gotten worse, not better. He just ain’t the guy

Potter has to go. 2 wins in 15, you can’t lose at home to Southampton with the talent we’ve signed, unacceptable.

If Graham Potter is still Chelsea manager for our next game, it is absolutely unacceptable.
Potter isn’t good enough, time for the ownership to admit their mistake and move on.

Graham Potter you are an absolute disgrace. Todd Boehly if you don’t sack him you are spineless. Get over your ego.
