Supposedly, if Graham Potter is fired, Chelsea would consider recruiting Roberto de Zerbi as their next manager.
According to the Independent, despite being the successor to the club’s current manager at Brighton, he would be one of the candidates the club would consider.
The pressure on the manager at Stamford Bridge has reached a ridiculous level, since the club’s results have not improved to a satisfactory level.
Before last weekend, the Blues had not won in 17 games, and many feared that a loss on Saturday would have ended Potter’s coaching career.
Possibly armed with this knowledge, the manager chose to play a back-three formation, and his decision paid off as they defeated Leeds United 1-0.
It seems conceivable that the Englishman will bring this method to Chelsea Bridge tonight against Borussia Dortmund, when the stakes are at their highest.
De Zerbi may replace Potter
Failing to qualify for the next round of the Champions League would be the final straw for a support that is already growing tired with the current leader.
Recent speculation has focused on who would replace Potter if he were to be relieved of his duties before to the conclusion of the season.
Recently, it was verified that there is no way back for Thomas Tuchel, but it is now believed that the answer may be closer to home.
The Independent said that they would consider De Zerbi, who is now continuing Potter’s excellent work at the Amex.
The former Shakhtar coach has previously worked with Mykhailo Mudryk, although he is currently viewed as an outsider for the position.
Mason Mount amazed by £50m Chelsea player’s display vs Borussia Dortmund
Mason Mount believes that his Chelsea colleague Ben Chilwell was excellent in yesterday night’s historic victory against Borussia Dortmund.
Mount, 24 years old, was suspended for yesterday’s home Champions League match against Dortmund, which they trailed 1-0 from the first leg.
But, Graham Potter’s squad reserved its best for a 2-0 victory over Bayern Munich at Stamford Bridge to advance to the quarterfinals of this season’s Champions League campaign.
With the game’s first goal, Raheem Sterling returned to the scoresheet. In addition, Kai Havertz scored a penalty kick on a historic night in Europe beneath the lights.
Chelsea has advanced to the quarterfinals of Europe’s premier club competition, but Rio Ferdinand does not regard our chances of winning the tournament as very good.
Potter reverted to a 3-4-2-1 formation for the last two games, including the victory over Dortmund.
Yesterday, Chilwell was so influential from the left wing-back position that he is definitely one of the biggest beneficiaries of the formation adjustment.
The fifty мillion Ԁollar defense helped Sterling’s first goal. In reality, he was one of the team’s most creative and Ԁangerous players, including a number of excellent corners into the box.
He exhibited tenacity and vitality on the entire left flank for 90 minutes.
Chilwell played in front of Marc Cucurella, who excelled as a three-man central defender, to create a beautiful balance on Chelsea’s left side.
Chilwell commemorated Chelsea’s victory on Tuesday night with an Instagram photo on his official account.
He wrote, “The Chelsea method!”
Mount replied by lavishing his teammate with praise: “Such a performance, cool dog!”
