Chelsea boss Potter eager to put brakes on Mudryk

Chelsea boss Graham Potter is determined not to demand too much too soon from Mykhaylo Mudryk.

Mudryk is viewed differently from other members of the Chelsea squad due to his "unique" mentality.

CBS Sports' Ben Jacobs told GiveMeSport: "What Potter has done very well is appreciate that Mudryk is a different breed of footballer to others at the club and he's played into his personality, which is ultimately very focused and unique.

"Mudryk is the type of player who wants to arrive early and leave late, he wants to do a lot of gym work, he wants to make instant impacts and sometimes run before he can walk.

"Potter is a great man-manager and has made sure he's taken one-on-one time with Mudryk to explain what the transition to the Premier League is like and to justify times why he's been left on the bench or out of the squad."
