Graham Potter: Chelsea boss retains support of the club's board

Despite the FA Cup defeat, Graham Potter still has the support of the board.

A run of six losses in nine games has put the former Seagulls boss under pressure.

Fans sang the name of the man who was fired in September.

Potter is seen as a long term appointment by the club.

The club's form has not been helped by a long list of injuries.

The club wants to follow a different path than that of RomanAbramovich, who had high turnover of managers. During the loss at Manchester City, the Russian's name was sung by the crowd.

Potter said after the game that the club is suffering as a football club.

After the club's takeover by chairman Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital in May, they spent more than $250 million on players and are now 10 points behind fourth-place Manchester United.

After going out to Manchester City in the first round of the domestic cup competition, they now face a run of games over the next five weeks in order to improve their results.

They will play Crystal Palace on Sunday and then travel to west London rivals, who are above them in the table, the next day. After they play West Ham, they play another team in the bottom half of the league.

There are currently no injured players for the Blues.
