Chelsea manager Graham Potter has said he “understands the supporters’ frustration” after the away end at Etihad Stadium broke out into chants directed at Thomas Tuchel and Roman Abramovich. While Potter delivered updates on Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, Christian Pulisic and Raheem Sterling after the duo were subbed of with injuries against City earlier in the week, Aubameyang was absent from the matchday squad.
Graham Potter said: “Christian opened up his knee in the game the other day. We’re still sorting of analysing it but it’s going to be weeks I would say for him. Raheem had an action in the first minute of the game, a back heel that was a bit strange and felt something in his hamstring. Again we’re analysing that. Aubameyang had a tight back yesterday so was unable to travel.”
Potter was also asked about his thoughts on the chants from the away end aimed at his and Boehly’s predecessors, Tuchel and Abramovich.
Graham Potter said: “We can’t do anything apart from do our jobs better and work harder. We understand the supporters’ frustration, that is understandable and we’ll respect that. Our job is to do our jobs, to keep working, see the situation for what it is, and of course there are always other opinions, negativity and criticism because the results haven’t been positive. That’s part of the job and the challenge.”
Chelsea next face Fulham in a London derby in the Premier League on Thursday, January 12 with Potter searching for his first win in three.
