  • Graham Potter is currently staring at an uncertain future as Chelsea boss
  • The Englishman has endured a frustrating run of form that has seen them win just two EPL games from their last 15
  • A section of fans are already demanding for the sacking of Potter, who took charge of the club in September

Graham Potter has reportedly been 'given' two games to save his job at Stamford Bridge.

The Chelsea boss has endured a frustrating start to life at the west London club since his arrival back in September.

Potter was appointed to the role after the sacking of Thomas Tuchel but has been unable to steady the ship at the club.

How Potter can save Chelsea job

Reports now suggest that the former Brighton boss faces two 'make-or-break' games to save his job at Stamford Bridge.

The Telegraph reports that the Blues' next fixtures against Leeds United and Borussia Dortmund could decide the English man's future at the club.

The West Londoners are scheduled to take on Leeds on Saturday, March 4, at Stamford Bridge before hosting Dortmund next Tuesday, March 7, for the return leg of their Champion League knockout clash.

Chelsea suffered a 1-0 loss in the reverse fixture played at Signal Iduna Park.

Chelsea fans petition to sack Potter

Chelsea fans have been going through the motions with different strategies to get Graham Potter out of their club, even though the power is not in their hands.

As Sports Brief earlier reported, a Twitter user started a petition on change.org, which has garnered nearly 40,000 signatures calling for the English manager to be shown the exit door.

Reports in the English media suggest he has the two games against Leeds United in the league and second leg round of 16 tie against Borussia Dortmund to turn things around.
