After Mason Mount capitalized on Tryone Mings’ mistake, the Blues led by one goal at the interval.
Chelsea was under a lot of pressure, and Kepa Arrizabalaga made a number of excellent saves.
Prior to the second half, Potter made a decision to make a change. He replaced Marc Cucurella and Kai Havertz with Kalidou Koulibaly and Cesar Azpilicueta, switching to a flat back five.
Potter responded to a question about the adjustments by saying to ChelseaTV: “It was more tactical.
“We just had to tweak it,” said the coach, “because I believed we definitely needed to be a back five, more so, and be a little stronger in the midfield region.
Changes might work in your favor or against you. The players deserve praise because they are all prepared to battle and support the group.
