LONDON (Reuters) - Graham Potter insists he still has the backing of Chelsea's owners but admits responsibility for the club's awful run of results rests squarely on his shoulders.
The Chelsea manager has come under enormous pressure after a run of two wins in 15 Premier League games which has left his side languishing in 10th place in the table.
"If results aren't good you have to accept the criticism and all the noise. My job is to stay with the team and stay focussed and prepare the team as best as I can and win the game." "I don't think at any point it's a positive for us to not be in Europe. A club with ambition and desire to compete. At the moment, we're not , and that's what we have to work on," Potter said.
