After losing to Spurs, the Blues found themselves in a situation that might only be resolved by firing their manager as the Tottenham fans were seen singing Chelsea get battered everywhere they go in viral videos
Chelsea lost yet again.
Graham Potter, the manager of Chelsea, is under increasing pressure following his team’s poor 2-0 loss away to Tottenham on Sunday, which extended their winless streak to six games. Oliver Skipp and Harry Kane’s goals in the second half gave Tottenham the victory as Chelsea’s performance was once again atrocious.

The defeat puts them 14 points behind Tottenham in the battle for a top-four finish, and regardless of whether Potter keeps his job or not, even qualifying for Europe next season now appears to be a difficult task.
How do the Chelsea players compare at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium?
Goalkeeper
Kepa Arrizabalaga (5/10): It was necessary for Kepa to perform better in the lead-up to Skipp’s opening.
Defence
Reece James (6/10): Although he was a right full-back who looked adequate but, Chelsea missed his offensive prowess.
Thiago Silva (6/10): The veteran was forced to leave after suffering a knee injury after 20 minutes.
Kalidou Koulibaly (5/10): Neither looked good nor showed confidence.
Midfield
Hakim Ziyech (4/10): He was deployed as a wing-back but had trouble contributing. Before being replaced 15 minutes after halftime, the player was fortunate to escape a first-half red card.
Enzo Fernandez (6/10): Classy in the middle but will regret the hasty clearance that allowed Skipp to score the game’s first goal.
Ruben Loftus-Cheek (5/10): Kept the ball moving but lacked motivation to challenge a tackle or so.
Ben Chilwell (6/10): Not awful, but also not fantastic. appeared to care at least.
Attack
Joao Felix (6/10): He gave the Spurs some trouble in the beginning, but they should have done more to prevent Skipp from tying the game.
Raheem Sterling (6/10): Late in the first half, he put Forster to the test, but his influence disappeared after the break.
Kai Havertz (4/10): Nice touches here and there, but no killing instinct.
Substitutes
Wesley Fofana (6/10): Made several effective defensive substitutions early on after stepping in for Thiago Silva.
Denis Zakaria (6/10): Had a minimal influence after being active throughout the final 30 minutes.
Mason Mount (5/10): From the moment he got on, he appeared irritated. Booked.
Mykhailo Mudryk (N/A): Came on for the final 10 minutes and missed one shot.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang (N/A): Even coming inside from the cold, there wasn’t enough time to really influence the game.
Manager
Graham Potter (4/10): Matching Tottenham’s structure worked well for the first 20 minutes, but it is obvious that it hasn’t given his players any confidence. He may have been spending his final time at the club.
