Chelsea boss Potter: We must not underestimate this achievement

Chelsea boss Graham Potter insists progress to the Champions League round of 16 cannot be underestimated.

Chelsea sign off for the group stage with tonight's clash with Dinamo Zagreb.

Potter has managed to earn Chelsea's passage through to the knockout stages in positive fashion, and that is where his attention lies.

Speaking to the club's social media before the game, Potter said: "It's important not to underestimate the achievement of qualification, especially when you consider where we were after the first couple of games, so all the credit to the players.

"Everybody involved at the club, it's taken a massive effort, you only have to see from teams that haven't qualified how difficult it is."
