Inclined to agree. Poch is a proven success story (I don't consider losing the UEFA Champions League final a failure - I genuinely believe that he was one of the best coaches to manage Spurs in a long time). I think it is some jump for Potter to move from a 4th tier Swedish side via Swansea City and Brighton (where all the necessary ingredients were set up for him - supportive ownership and a highly experienced technical director amongst other things; all of which are notably lacking with Chelsea after recruitment/technical staff summarily 'dismissed'). If I were Chelsea supporter I'd be concerned. There's barely any time for new coach to assimilate himself with the squad and staff and this league is in serious danger of become THE farmer's league - even with LFC in their current state.
