Graham Potter claims Chelsea will use FIFA World Cup break to recover

The 47-year-old's time in charge of Chelsea started in excellent fashion following his move from Brighton & Hove Albion, but momentum has stalled in recent weeks. Potter has claimed that his squad will use the imminent break to recover, while also having discussions with the club's owner. Potter told a press conference (as per ): "I'm a human being as well. I've come from Brighton, where everything was pretty much organized over a three-year period. Pretty quickly you're into the washing machine in terms of the games and the turnaround. "You have to deal with all that's going on and the amount of matches you play, and then you need a bit of time to reflect - if there is that time. There is because of the World Cup break and it would be stupid of me not to use that time to rejuvenate, to recover, to reflect and to improve." On his relationship with owner Todd Boehly, Potter further added: "We have regular dialogue, so that's part of an ongoing process. Sometimes you need to reflect, you need to think and you need to analyze and if you have the space to do it, it's better."Absolutely, we need to think about what's happened and we need to think about what we need to do to improve."We're set for St James' Park.
