Potter analyses tough time at City and gives injury update

08 JAN 2023


Graham Potter admitted Chelsea are going through a bad moment after the latest defeat but called on everyone to stick together as he looked ahead to the challenges to come.

波特承認俱樂部在最近的失敗後正在經歷一個糟糕的時刻,但他呼籲每個人都團結起來,展望了未來的挑戰。

Our head coach had seen his side go down 4-0 at Manchester City. Conceding twice in the first half-hour made a tough FA Cup third-round tie much more difficult and it was 3-0 by the break, with Riyad Mahrez scoring his second goal of the game, a second penalty for City, close to the end to complete the scoring.

我們的主教練目睹了球隊 0-4 輸給曼城。藍軍在前半小時連丟兩球,使得足總盃第三輪的比賽變得更加艱難,半場結束時比分是 3-0。馬赫雷斯在比賽接近結束時打進了個人本場比賽的第二個進球,這是曼城的第二個點球。

Potter acknowledged that the way the game went early on left it hard for his players to give a good account of themselves against the league champions.

波特承認,比賽開局進行的方式,讓球員很難在對陣聯賽冠軍曼城的比賽中表現良好。

‘We were second best to a very, very good side,’ he said. ‘Obviously, we're not in a great moment ourselves and even though it was a cagey first 20 minutes, we couldn't attack the back line well enough. Man City do really well in terms of stopping you doing that and at the same time we struggled.

“我們對陣的是一支非常、非常好的球隊。” 他說, “很明顯,我們自己的狀態並不好,儘管前 20 分鐘我們很謹慎,但無法很好的向對手防線發起攻擊,曼城在阻止進攻方面做得很好,同時我們也很掙扎。”

‘It was a fantastic first goal in terms of the free-kick strike, then a strange penalty, and then you are caught in a position where it is 2-0 and you have to chase the ball against Manchester City. You’re caught between trying to commit more men and not get opened up.

“第一個進球是很漂亮的自由球,然後是一個奇怪的點球,我們在 0-2 落後的局面下,必須對曼城爭奪球權,我們陷入了兩難的境地,既想要在進攻中投入更多人力,又不想踢得太開放。”


‘So the first half was painful and it was tough for us all. Second half, we had to respond and there were some positives there in terms of the young players, they gave everything and showed their quality, but in the end we're disappointed because we've gone out the competition.’

“因此上半場很痛苦,對我們所有人來說都很艱難。下半場我們不得不做出回應,年輕球員有一些積極的表現,他們付出了一切,展示了他們的實力,但最終我們很失望,因為我們出局了。”

Potter noted that the results in the recent period are not positive, even if some have been against the strongest teams, and he added:

波特指出,最近一段時間的比賽結果並不理想,即使有些對手是最強的球隊,他補充道:

‘You can make excuses and look for reasons or you can say it isn't good enough, and both of those answers are correct. So we have to keep improving, stick together because clearly we're suffering as a football club and it's not nice at all. But that's where we are at the moment.

“我們可以找藉口、找理由,也可以說自己做得不夠好,而這些答案都是正確的。因此我們必須不斷改進,團結在一起,很明顯我們俱樂部正在遭受痛苦,這一點都不好。但這就是我們現在的處境。”

‘We can't do anything apart from do our jobs better and work harder and you understand the supporters’ frustration, that's understandable and we respect that.’

“我們除了把工作做得更好、更努力,什麼都做不了,我們能理解球迷的沮喪,這是可以理解的,我們尊重他們的感受。”

Potter rejected suggestions that in addition to being hampered by a long injury list, there is a problem with the application of some players he is able to field.

波特否認了除了長期傷病的問題之外,他能派上場的一些球員也存在問題。

‘Man City is probably the worst opponent you can play when things aren't going very well because they can make you look like you're not running or you're not trying because their positional structure is brilliant,’ he explained. 'They use the full width of the pitch and they keep the ball and that makes it difficult to put any pressure on them.

“曼城可能是在我們不太順利的情況下能遇到的最糟糕對手,因為他們會讓我們看起來沒有跑動或沒有努力,因為他們的陣型結構非常出色。” 他解釋說, “他們利用了球場的全部寬度,控制住了球,這使得他們很難受到任何壓迫。”


‘I'm working with the players and I don't get any sense of any people with poor attitudes. Everyone wants to try and do better and there is support in the dressing room.’

“我和球員們一起工作,不覺得有任何人態度不好。每個人都想嘗試做得更好,更衣室也相互支持。”

The coach finished with an update on three players not fit for this game, Christian Pulisic, Raheem Sterling and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.

主教練最後談到了三名無法參加這場比賽的球員的最新情況,分別是普利西克、拉辛.斯特林和奧巴梅揚。

‘Christian just opened up his knee in the game the other day so we're still analysing it. It's going to be weeks I would say. Raheem just had an action in the first minute that game, a back heel that was a bit strange and he felt something in his hamstring. So again we are analysing that. Aubameyang had a tight back yesterday so was unable to travel.’

“普利西克在前幾天的比賽中膝蓋受傷了,所以我們還在分析他的情況,我會說要等個幾週。斯特林在比賽的第一分鐘就受傷了,他的後腳跟有點奇怪,他覺得腿筋有狀況,我們也正在分析。奧巴梅揚昨天背部緊繃,因此無法前來客場。”

Every word Graham Potter said on Tuchel chants, Chelsea form, Pulisic, Sterling, Aubameyang

By Adam Newson, Chelsea correspondent - UPDATED19:35, 8 JAN 2023


.You spoke pre-match about needing time and Pep Guardiola has just said the same thing, how much time do you think it will take?

"Well, the results in terms of the Premier League, I think we’ve lost four matches. Newcastle away before the World Cup when we had nine players out, we lost 1-0 to Arsenal, we lost on a bad day at Brighton, and I think we lost to Man City. Those are the teams we’ve lost to and we’ve drawn against Manchester United and Brentford, so the results in a small space of time aren’t positive.

"Like I’ve said, you can make excuses and look for reasons or you can say it’s not good enough. Both of those answers are correct so we have to keep improving and stick together because clearly we’re suffering as a football club and it’s not nice at all. That’s where we’re at at the moment."

.In the away end, there were chants for Thomas Tuchel and Roman Abramovich, how hard is it to turn things around when you’ve got this atmosphere around you?

"We can’t do anything apart from do our jobs better and work harder. We understand the supporters’ frustration, that is understandable and we’ll respect that. Our job is to do our jobs, to keep working, see the situation for what it is, and of course there are always other opinions, negativity and criticism because the results haven’t been positive. That’s part of the job and the challenge."

.Is there an idea on timescale for Sterling?

"No, not at the moment."

.What’s needed to bring those fans back who are losing faith and how confident are you that you can turn the situation around?

"It’s always challenging in the Premier League and it’s always challenging here. I understand their frustration and I understand when you look at results and the team performance today that it is far away from Manchester City. That’s clear. We have to focus on the next day, the next match.

"We play on Thursday and it’s an important game for us. We need to stay together as group, support each other, and I’m sure we will get the support of the supporters when we see good performances and results."
