Graham Potter has WORST record of any Chelsea manager in Premier League era after dismal derby defeat to Tottenham
GRAHAM POTTER has the WORST record of any Chelsea manager in the Premier League.
And it could soon get worse for the under-pressure gaffer as he prepares for a tough run of games.
Potter’s Blues slumped to a dismal defeat against Tottenham on Sunday – his seventh league loss in 18 games.
Of those matches, just five have been wins.
And Potter has only managed to pick up two victories in his last 15 league outings.
Harry Kane and Oliver Skipp were the men who scored for Spurs, heaping more misery on Potter.
The away loss to Tottenham leaves Potter with a shocking win percentage of just 27.8 per cent – lower than any other manager during Chelsea’s time in the Prem.
Even misfits like Rafa Benitez, Luiz Felipe Scolari and Andre-Villas Boas recorded better win percentages during their spells at the helm.
All three were swiftly given the chop by ex-owner Roman Abramovich.
And Potter also finds himself behind Chelsea’s calamitous British trio of David Webb, Glenn Hoddle and Ian Porterfield.

The ex-Brighton boss now finds himself in a tough position after being roundly booed by those in attendance at Stamford Bridge last Saturday for the 1-0 loss to Southampton.
Potter is trying to find the right balance in a bloated 33-man squad.
And Todd Boehly’s lavish £326million January spending spree indicates he is not going anywhere for the time being.
But until results improve, Potter may face more jeers from his own supporters.
Potter’s men face Leeds next in the Prem, and a Champions League round of 16 second leg against Borussia Dortmund follows that.
And Potter knows he needs to find the right formula to deliver a victory fans can be proud of.
Prem games against Leicester and Everton will see out the month of March.
