Chelsea: Potter without magic, gone after 207 days, with no connection to Chelsea fans

Harry Potter has to be the most famous Potter in the world. He is the main character in the award-winning films based on J.K Rowling's novels. Throughout the franchise, Potter's success has relied on magic to propel him forward.

Graham Potter's Chelsea dream quickly turned into a nightmare after just 207 days after his side suffered yet another defeat at home to Aston Villa on Saturday. As a fan, the only words that come to mind are 'fire him' after a 10th league loss (not all under Potter). I didn't conclude this by accident, as I deliberately tried to think rationally about Chelsea's situation.

The reality of the fan is false. They don't want to admit that in sport and in life, losing and winning are two sides of the same coin, especially after 19 years of winning. You will lose some and gain some, but how you lose is also important.

Chelsea fans at Stamford Bridge communicated with their feet as well as their voices. Loud half-time and full-time boos gave the owners - Todd Boehly and Behdad Eghbali - enough leverage to make a decision on behalf of the majority of Chelsea fans.

During Roman Abramovich's 19 years of ownership, he hired 13 full-time managers and fired 12. In less than a year, Boehly fired two managers: Thomas Tuchel, whom he met, and Potter, whom he hired.

Chelsea fans didn't boo the team when they were beaten by bottom-placed Southampton. They voted with their feet at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Apathy and lack of interest in Potter and his team. There was no reason to devote more emotions to Potter. In their minds, he no longer existed!

Boehly hired Potter to renovate the building, but the results destroyed the entire structure. Was it possible for Potter to make amends? It was almost impossible. The main reason for this is that Potter lacks the knowledge base required to work with high level players. Wherever the England manager has worked, he has had to cajole, cajole and push average players to above-average feats.

At Chelsea, he met and was passed on by other world-class players, and he appeared dazzled. He made more than 100 changes to his team in the Premier League, while league leaders Arsenal made less than 30. He can point to the wave of injuries that hit his team, but in the end he didn't has not played the cards that were dealt. to him wisely.

Speaking as a pundit on Sky Sports, former Chelsea striker Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink reiterated why Chelsea's records, especially under Roman Abramovich, have become a millstone around their necks of Potter. "Chelsea fans over the last 20 years have been spoiled with lots of wins. Lots of trophies and playing at the top of the league all the time.”

Now they are 11th, with one minus in the goal difference column. They have scored three times since the New Year, which resulted in six defeats, three draws and just one win.

Another scathing aspect of Potter's tenure as Chelsea manager was his lack of outward appearance as an elite football manager. Choose your poison: scruffy facial hair, lack of emotion on the sidelines, or an inability to inspire fans with his words.

Listen to it after the Tottenham defeat. “I know the responsibility. It's not enough for this club. I take full responsibility for these results. It's not enough for Chelsea. I know the personalities and the quality of the team. A difficult time.”

The main reason for this is that Potter lacks the knowledge base required to work with top players and then refused to make up his mind on his top 15 players.

Cutting and changing the starting 11 didn't trust players or fans. His replacement, Bruno Saltor, at his first press conference, spoke the right words, which were simply absent during Potter's reign.

"[We] see this as an opportunity for the players. It's about winning and helping with the preparation," the interim manager revealed.
