Graham Potter Says Losing Chelsea Job Was the Best Thing for His Career
West Ham manager Graham Potter has opened up about his time at Chelsea, admitting that getting sacked might have been a blessing in disguise.
Speaking ahead of West Ham’s Premier League clash with Chelsea on Monday, Potter reflected on his brief and turbulent spell at Stamford Bridge.
Looking back, the 49-year-old sees it as a valuable learning experience rather than a setback.
“In football, there are always ups and downs,” Potter said. “I didn’t want to lose my job, but now, when I reflect on it, maybe it was the best thing that could have happened to me.
Maybe the next 10 to 20 years will be even better because of what I went through. I’ve learned a lot from that time.”
Despite the disappointment, Potter insists he holds no grudges against Chelsea and still maintains strong relationships with many people at the club.

“It’s a tough one because winning AFCON is like… It’s a great legacy, it’s a great thing to have in your career, a memorable moment. But then at the same time, because I’ve been to the World Cup already, a lot of the players haven’t been.”
