Guardiola sends message to Chelsea on sacking Potter

Man City manager Pep Guardiola has sent a message to Chelsea as he urged the club to give Graham Potter more time.

This comes after Man City kicked Chelsea out of the Carabao Cup tournament as Guardiola described Potter as one of the best managers in the Premier League at the moment.

“If Chelsea accept my humble advice, give him time and he will do well,” Guardiola stated during a press conference.

“They got good results but the way they play, when I saw the game against Brighton that they lost, I saw many things I remember from his period in Brighton. But he needs time, everybody needs time.

“No one has succeeded from day one or two, I have a lot of admiration for his work.

“What he did at Brighton was beyond exceptional and I’m pretty sure with time he will do a good job, I don’t have any doubts.

“He is one of the best managers from my point of view, we have in this league.”

The recent loss to Man City come after Chelsea suffered a defeat to Arsenal in the EPL.
