Chelsea boss Potter rejects claims job under threat

Chelsea boss Graham Potter has rejected claims his job is already in doubt after their humbling at Brighton.

Potter knocked back suggestions he is under pressure following the 4-1 drubbing at the hands of old side Brighton.

The Blues are currently on a three game winless run in the league.

But Potter said: "Pressure? From one game, you mean? In my job, or where I'm sat, you've got to be careful what you listen to.

"People can talk and say whatever. It's just part of life.

"You understand at a club like this that you're only 90 minutes away from a crisis, and you have to put things into perspective."

He added: "Whatever people say from the outside - there's always opinions, there's always people that don't like you, there's always people that will have a different view of how the situation is.

"You can't control that. All I can do is focus on how I think, what I think and how I act and let the noise carry on."
