Chelsea boss Graham Potter has praised Chelsea fans for the support to the team during Chelsea’s 1-0 defeat to Manchester City at Stamford Bridge on Thursday night.

“You have to take responsibility when we’re not playing well but at the same time you hope people look at the whole context in terms of what we’ve had to deal with,” said Potter.

“Emotions are high. We’ll try to ride out the storm and I think the crowd appreciated the performance and were behind the team tonight.

“Our supporters were fantastic and got behind the team in a great way.”
