John Terry has Already told Chelsea why They Should Appoint Graham Potter Amid £16m Decision – Graham Potter already has John Terry’s support if he wants to succeed Thomas Tuchel as Chelsea’s head coach. The question was when the Blues, led by Todd Boehly at the top, would decide to part ways with Tuchel.
The new Chelsea ownership structure believed it was the perfect time to act after a disastrous night in Europe that saw the west Londoners lose their opening Group E game against Dinamo Zagreb. A statement from the Club reads: “Chelsea Football Club has today parted company with head coach Thomas Tuchel.”
After helping Chelsea win the Champions League, Super Cup, and Club World Cup during his tenure there, Thomas will rightfully have a place in Chelsea’s history. The new owners believe that now is the ideal moment to implement this change as they have now owned the Club for 100 days and have continued to work hard to move the Club forward.

Boehly is attempting to move on swiftly because life in the world of football requires it. However, his decision has been met with varied reactions. Although it is believed that Graham Potter and Mauricio Pochettino are the two early front-runners to succeed the German, Anthony Barry will be hired to fill in temporarily until the managerial hiring process is complete.
Potter vs. Pochettino has already divided the fanbase, with several groups of supporters and even certain media pundits identifying advantages and disadvantages of the two aforementioned candidates. Terry would support the current Premier League manager if it were only him making the decision.
