Graham Potter earned his first victory as Chelsea manager against Crystal Palace in the Premier League last weekend. The London giants went on to beat AC Milan 3-0 in the UEFA Champions League during the week. The Blues will now be looking to build on their momentum when they face Wolves at Stamford Bridge today (October 8). With less than an hour to go until kick-off, Potter has named his starting XI for the match. Potter has notably left James, Aubameyang and Sterling on the bench for his team's game against Wolves. The decision has come as a surprise to many, especially considering James and Aubameyang scored against AC Milan. A section of Chelsea fans have thus slammed the English tactician for his decisions on social media: Chelsea FC@ChelseaFCYour Chelsea team news! @ParimatchGlobal #CheWol174852987Your Chelsea team news! @ParimatchGlobal #CheWol https://t.co/NzsVImhVDf Nick@CFCNick3@ChelseaFC @ParimatchGlobal No Reece James3862@ChelseaFC @ParimatchGlobal No Reece James https://t.co/OHMd316VAs qSting@adamstiing@ChelseaFC @ParimatchGlobal WTFF??? james sterling auba all benched???@ChelseaFC @ParimatchGlobal WTFF??? james sterling auba all benched??? yves saint lauren@Henrym3n3z@ChelseaFC @ParimatchGlobal Wait where is James???

Kovacic on the bench too like wtfff we need to pray. twitter.com/chelseafc/stat… It now remains to be seen if Potter's decision to drop James, Aubameyang and Sterling for the Blues' clash against Wolves will come back to haunt him. How have James Aubameyang and Sterling fared for Chelsea James has started in all but one of Chelsea's 10 matches across all competitions this season. He has scored and assisted two goals each in those matches, while also helping the team keep two clean sheets. Aubameyang joined the Blues from La Liga giants Barcelona on a two-year deal in the summer. He has since amassed 266 minutes of playing time for the London giants, netting two goals in the process. The Stamford Bridge outfit acquired Sterling's services from Premier League rivals Manchester City for a deal worth £47.5 million in the summer. The Englishman has since started in each of their 10 matches, leading the line for the team on most occasions. Sterling has found the back of the net four times for Chelsea so far this season, while also registering two assists. He is the club's top scorer in all competitions as things stand, with James and Aubameyang placed second. It is worth noting that the Blues have had an underwhelming start to their 2022-23 season. It saw the club, who sit fifth in the table with 13 points from seven league matches, replace Thomas Tuchel with Potter last month.
