Chelsea boss Graham Potter was delighted after victory over Leeds.

Chelsea bounced back from consecutive defeats in the Premier League with a deserved win over Leeds, Wesley Fofana's header just after half-time being enough for victory.

"We're delighted with the win, that's for sure, because we've had a tough period," said Potter. "I'm delighted for the players, delighted for the supporters, because they've had to suffer, so it was pleasing to get the win.

"We started the game well and created some opportunities. Playing against Leeds is always tough, they've got a high intensity. When we got the goal it was a pleasing moment for us all and then the second half was probably a little bit about that we had something to lose, which is where you'd expect us to be given the run we had.

"At the end it's really good for the players to keep a clean sheet, get a win and to have that feeling. It's nice.

"I'm delighted for the players and I'm delighted for the supporters, because they're the most important people at the football club. If you don't' get results then it's my responsibility and I accept that.

"It's been a tough period for us all but it's nice to go home with the win and now we need to prepare for a really exciting game on Tuesday night, which I'm sure will be a fantastic atmosphere and occasion and we want to try and win it.

"It's a nice three points, an important three points. It's good for confidence, good for morale. The boys have been suffering because they care and our supporters have been suffering as well. It's been a tough period for us. The win gives us the chance to recover, to prepare for a massive game on Tuesday night and that's what we have to focus on."
