More pressure on Potter as Chelsea suffer 2-1 defeat to Fulham

Chelsea continue with their poor run on Thursday after they suffered another defeat to Fulham, which has now mounted more pressure on coach Graham Potter.

The match also witnessed the Blues’ new forward Joao Felix being handed a red and sent off on his debut.

Chelsea have now suffered seven defeats in their last 10 games in all competitions after the poor game.

The match against Fulham saw Chelsea fall behind to a goal from their former winger Willian in the first half at Craven Cottage on Thursday.

Kalidou Koulibaly, however, scored an equaliser during the second half while Felix was sent off the pitch for a reckless studs-up lunge on Kenny Tete.

Fulham towards the end of the match scored a goal thanks to Carlos Vinicius after a mistake by Chelsea keeper Kepa.

Chelsea remain seated at the 10 spot on the Premier League table, however, the embarrassing defeat has increased the pressure calling for the sack of Potter who arrived at Stamford Bridge as Thomas Tuchel’s replacement.
