He’s The Main Threat” Graham Potter Named Chelsea Man That Caused Problem For Westham
On Monday night, Chelsea staged an impressive comeback at Stamford Bridge, overturning a 1-0 deficit to claim a hard-fought 2-1 victory against West Ham. While it wasn’t the most dazzling performance from the Blues this season, the result is all that matters, and supporters will undoubtedly be pleased with the win.
The match marked the return of former Chelsea manager Graham Potter, who was back at Stamford Bridge for the first time since his dismissal in 2023. Despite West Ham taking an early lead and holding onto it until halftime, Potter’s side could not maintain their advantage and ultimately succumbed to defeat.
During a post-match interview with Footyvalid, Potter highlighted Enzo Fernandez as Chelsea’s most challenging player to contend with on the pitch. The English coach expressed admiration for the Argentine World Cup winner’s ability to dictate play from midfield, saying, “He’s the biggest threat, and he has the midfield locked in his favor… He’s a great player and yet to unleash his potential.”
Fernandez played a pivotal role in Chelsea’s first-half efforts, where the home side struggled to gain control of the game. His influence only grew stronger as the Blues dominated proceedings after the break, contributing significantly to their comeback victory.
This season, Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has relied heavily on the midfield partnership of Fernandez and Moises Caicedo. However, the duo will soon receive reinforcements with the expected arrival of 19-year-old Mathis Amougou from Saint-Etienne. The young talent’s move is anticipated to provide additional strength and depth to Chelsea’s midfield lineup.
