"Chelsea FC has announced that Graham Potter has departed the club.

Chelsea are used to big personalities and winners as manager. Graham Potter never had the persona to succeed Thomas Tuchel at Stamford Bridge.

The fault lies with Boehly and his advisers in hiring a coach who was wholly unprepared and ill-equipped for the job. They demand a coach of a similar status to themselves -- a status earned either by achievements as a player or as a coach. But he was also more likely to embrace the approach favoured by Boehly of a coach focusing on the team and little else. None of them had won anything of note as coaches: assistant manager Billy Reid was a lower league player in Scotland whose management career peaked with eight years in charge of Hamilton Academical, while goalkeeper coach Ben Roberts was best known to Chelsea fans for conceding the then-fastest goal in an FA Cup final while playing for Middlesbrough against Chelsea in 1997. He was rightly regarded as a rising star in coaching following his work at Ostersund in Sweden, Swansea and then Brighton, but his credentials were also possibly overstated by virtue of him being an English coach in the Premier League -- a rarity in recent years. He guided Brighton to finishes of 15th, 16th and 9th in his three full Premier League seasons at the Amex Stadium, but his efforts already look set to be eclipsed by his successor, Roberto De Zerbi.

Interim coach Bruno Saltor has said that Chelsea will need to keep the process going after sacking Graham Potter. "I'm here right now, trying to keep the process going. I'm just here to help the club in the best way I can," Saltor told reporters. Chelsea suffered a 2-0 loss to Aston Villa at home on Saturday and that proved to be the final nail in the coffin for the English manager.

Graham Potter is out as Chelsea following a disappointing tenure that has seen the club slip to 11th place in the Premier League.

"Along with our incredible fans, we will all be getting behind Bruno and the team as we focus on the rest of the season. That includes breaking the British transfer record to sign midfielder He has always conducted himself with professionalism and integrity and we are all disappointed in this outcome. Potter was told of the news in face-to-face talks at the club's Cobham training base on Sunday and sources have said that a compromise was reached over his payoff, meaning he will receive less than the full value of his contract in severance terms. We have 10 Premier League games remaining and a Champions League quarter-final ahead. "We have the highest degree of respect for Graham as a coach and as a person.
