Potter reacts as Chelsea lost to Brighton
Chelsea failed to continue their impressive form under Graham Potter as they lost 4-1 to Brighton Hove Albion at the AMEX stadium on Saturday afternoon. Goals from Leandro Trossard, Pascal Gross and two own goals from Trevoh Chalobah and Ruben Loftus-Cheek gave the home team the deserved win over the Blues.
Chelsea manager Graham Potter reveals why his team lost to his former team after the game.
Chelsea manager Graham Potter, speaking to Sky Sports: “They played well, the atmosphere was really intense here. We didn’t necessarily match that level of intensity.
“We had some opportunities to test the keeper, but it was too open and Brighton were dangerous. We were pushing and pushing and throwing players on, but Brighton deserved it. You have to say congratulations to them.
“Brighton were better at what they did, so we have to take that as a lesson – even though that’s a painful one for us.
“You have to congratulate Brighton. The intensity was there and we suffered a little bit. The players are an honest bunch – we win and lose together – so we have to take stock and move forward.”
