Thomas Tuchel Sends Graham Potter A Warning Following Chelsea’s Recent Poor Performances

Thomas Tuchel, a former Chelsea coach, has warned Graham Potter, his replacement, that if he cannot turn things around after suffering back-to-back losses, “nobody” at the club will “trust the process.”

In his first few months on the job, Potter has already come under increased scrutiny and criticism after losing to Arsenal in the league and then losing to Manchester City in the Carabao Cup.

The ex-boss of Brighton made some controversial post-game remarks in which he acknowledged that Arsenal were “better” and claimed that Chelsea displayed “courage” in taking on a “top team” like Man City.

Tuchel, speaking on the Ayurvedic Healing & Beyond Podcast, said, “My experience in Chelsea, Paris, Dortmund and Mainz, it is about the results.

“You can overcome one loss, a short period… but it cannot be too long otherwise nobody trusts the process no more.”

The German, who is currently jobless after being fired by new co-owner Todd Boehly earlier this season, was candid about how he handled the egos in the Chelsea locker room and why he felt it was important to set the bar high every day.

“To worship the process on a daily process this is the most important,” he said.

“I try to be really strict and disciplined with the players, be on time, be friendly, be respectful, be ready, give your very best.”

Chelsea has now lost three of its last four games, falling to Brighton and Arsenal in consecutive league games, then Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium in the cup match.
