LONDON (Reuters) - Chelsea coach Graham Potter said he understood why fans were asking how much longer he would stay in the job after a latest loss on Sunday, but he said the contrasting fortunes of other top club bosses showed how quickly things could turn around.
Speaking after a 2-0 defeat at the home of arch-rivals Tottenham Hotspur - the 13th time in 15 games in all competitions that Chelsea have failed to win - Potter said he was frustrated and disappointed by the latest setback.
He pointed to the way Arsenal coach Mikel Arteta had led his side to the top of the Premier League this season after coming under fierce criticism from Gunners' fans in previous years when they struggled. "That's just the nature of football and obviously I haven't done enough for this club to have too much good faith," said the former Brighton & Hove Albion coach - who arrived at Stamford Bridge last September.
Potter also faced questions from reporters about his side's inability to score, having found the net only once in their last five league games.
