4 major issues Graham Potter would need to address as new Chelsea head coach
By David Nlemadim Modified 08 Sep 2022 Follow Us Comment Share Brighton & Hove Albion v Chelsea FC - Premier League English tactician Graham Potter has officially been named as Chelsea's new manager following the dismissal of Thomas Tuchel. Todd Boehly recently parted ways with Tuchel on Wednesday (September 7) morning, after taking charge of his 100th game as the club's manager. The decision to sack Tuchel after just seven games into the season was one that has been greeted with a mix of reactions from fans and pundits. However, the results on display for the Blues this season haven't been impressive enough. Also, the defeat to Dinamo Zagreb could possibly have been the final nail in the coffin for the German tactician. Moving forward, the west London club have now found Tuchel's replacement aarrivedessor. According to SkySports, Potter arrived at the club's training facility earlier in the day to seal his contract. The manager will now be taking a huge step into his managerial career, after previously working with Ostersund, Swansea City and Brighton & Hove Albion. However, the job at Stamford Bridge comes with a whole lot of pressure and expectations. It's left to be seen as to whether Potter will be able to handle it as fast as they come. A couple of issues will also need to be addressed at Chelsea now that he has been appointed. As such, this article will look at four specific issues.#4 Tactics
Potter deployed a 3-4-3 tactics at Brighton One issue the English tactician will definitely have to address as Chelsea's new head coach will be how he sets up his Blues team. The west London club have been drilled and modeled into a 3-4-3 formation by former manager Tuchel during his time at the club. Chelsea's transfer activities this summer indicated that they may be keen to work with the back-three system as they signed a couple of defenders. Interestingly, Potter is also a huge fan of the 3-4-3 formation as he deployed it most of the time at Brighton. He could either continue in the same set-up at Chelsea as his predecessor or reinvent his own ideas.

#3 Defensive crisis
Chelsea FC v West Ham United - Premier League One key area Tuchel was able to address when he took over at Chelsea was the club's defensive irregularities. The German instantly switched to a back-three set-up to give the Blues more stability in defense. However, the tactical switch was majorly successful during his first 50 games in charge of the Blues. His team was able to keep 37 clean sheets and conceded just 24 goals in Tuchel's first 50 games.

This season, the Blues have already let in 10 goals in all competitions, keeping just one clean sheet. Chelsea also haven't been decent in regards to set pieces this season. They have been caught out by teams on a couple of occasions, notably against Tottenham Hotspur, Leeds United and West Ham United. Potter will need to find immediate answers to the Blues' current defensive crisis in a bid to steady the ship at Stamford Bridge.#2 Dip-in-form of key players
Leeds United v Chelsea FC - Premier League Another issue that Potter will need to address after securing the Chelsea job will be the sudden dip-in-form of key players. There has been a drastic drop in performances from most first-team players at the club, which has affected the teams' results in games. The likes of Mason Mount, Hakim Ziyech, Jorginho, Kai Havertz and Edouard Mendy, but to mention a few, haven't been at their best this season. Mendy has just one clean sheet this season while Mount is without a goal or assist in seven games. Ziyech has looked far from his best among several other underperforming players at Stamford Bridge.
