Potter cites reasons which led to home defeat to Aston Villa
01 APR 23
Graham Potter believes a lack of concentration in crucial and defining moments proved costly in today’s home defeat to Aston Villa.
波特認為關鍵時刻的注意力不集中導致了今天我們主場輸給阿斯頓維拉。
The Blues were defeated at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League for a fourth time this season, with Unai Emery’s side claiming all three points courtesy of goals in each half from Ollie Watkins and John McGinn.
藍軍本賽季第四次在斯坦福橋被擊敗，埃梅里的球隊憑藉沃特金斯和麥金在上半場的進球全取三分。
Despite having 27 shots at goal compared to Aston Villa’s five, Chelsea could not get on the scoresheet after going behind to our visitors from the Midlands and Potter felt our lack of quality in both boxes was our undoing today.
卻爾西有 27 次射門，而阿斯頓維拉只有 5 次，但落後之後卻爾西無法取得進球，波特認為我們在兩個禁區內缺乏好的表現導致了今天的失利。
‘In both boxes we were second best,’ Potter explained after the game. ‘The first goal for them is disappointing and we need to do better. There were a lot of good things in the game, a lot of attacking play, entries and a lot of shots. If you look at the stats, it was positive.
“在兩個禁區裡，我們都不如對方表現好，” 波特賽後解釋道， “他們的第一個進球令人失望，我們需要做得更好。比賽中有很多積極之處，有很多進攻、嘗試和很多射門。如果看看數據，我們的表現是積極的。”
‘The boys gave everything in the game. Their intentions were there, they showed personality and tried. Ultimately, you need to defend better than we did. I am responsible for that, and we will look at it and do better.
“球員們在比賽中付出了一切。他們的意圖很明顯，他們展現了性格，並付出了努力。但最終我們需要更好的防守，這是我的責任，我們會關注這方面並做得更好。”
‘We started well in the second half, but then one action sees the ball back up our end and then it is a great strike from McGinn. Ultimately, the most important stat is the defeat. We have to accept it and work hard to put things right.’
“我們在下半場開局不錯，但隨後一個丟球讓壓力回到了我們這邊，麥金的射門很厲害。最終，最重要的數據就是輸了，我們必須接受現實，並努力糾正錯誤。”
Potter was pressed on the two substitutions he made immediately after Villa’s second goal…
有人追問波特在阿斯頓維拉攻進第二個球後立即換下的兩個球員...
‘Ruben was getting space and we wanted a winger on there. N’Golo is a big player for us and we thought he could run in behind. I thought he did well when he came on.
“洛夫圖斯奇克得到了空間，我們想要派上一個邊鋒。坎特是我們的重要球員，我們認為他可以在對手防線後跑動，我認為他上場後表現得很好。”
‘We need to manage moments better and the scoreline tells the story. We have to respond now, and we have a fantastic game on Tuesday night [against Liverpool] to put it right.’
“我們需要更好地把握時機，比分說明了一切。現在我們必須做出回應，我們需要在週二晚上對陣利物浦時奉獻一場精彩的比賽來糾正錯誤。”
The head coach was asked about Ben Chilwell’s impressive display…
主教練被問及奇爾維爾令人印象深刻的表現...
‘I thought Ben did really well and he gave us absolutely everything down that left side. He was unlucky not to score today, he attacked the backline really well. There were certainly positives for us but obviously it doesn't feel that way because we lost the game.’
“我認為奇爾維爾做得非常好，他在左路為我們奉獻了一切。他今天沒進球很不走運，他進攻對手的防線非常好。對我們來說肯定有積極的因素，但顯然感覺不是這樣，因為我們輸掉了比賽。”
The head coach was also asked about the frustrations of the crowd at full-time...
主教練也被問到了全場觀眾的沮喪情緒...
‘I understand when you lose at home that people will be frustrated, disappointed and angry. No one is happy with where we are in the league table and we have to work hard to improve that.
“我理解，當球隊在主場輸球時，人們會感到沮喪、失望和憤怒。沒有人對我們在積分榜上的位置感到滿意，我們必須努力工作來改善情況。”
'It’s an emotional game and I can certainly understand the frustrations after a home defeat.’
“這是一場情緒化的比賽，我當然能理解主場失利後球迷的沮喪情緒。”

Every word Graham Potter said on Cucurella, Koulibaly, Mount and boos after Aston Villa defeat
By Scott Trotter, Chelsea writer - UPDATED 21:53, 1 APR 2023
．Since you've arrived, you've changed formation and players a few times. What is the biggest factor why Chelsea haven't been consistent this season?
The formation has been the same for the last few weeks. It's not for me to talk through the story of the season now. We came in in September. There's a lot of games, a lot of injuries, it's difficult to have the consistency you want because you're playing a lot of matches. Today is a setback, of course it is because we're disappointed to lose and at home we can feel the pain of the supporters. We have to dust ourselves down and go again on Tuesday.
．Why did you start with two fullbacks and why did Mason Mount not come on?
Well, we wanted to attack, we wanted to use Marc and Reece as two laterals, that's where the space would be and they can construct attacks well. I thought we got some good opportunities from an attacking perspective, won the ball back, high as well. I think we had a 1v1 with Mischa a couple of times. It's an error for the first goal and whenever there's an error there's always something you can do better.
With Mason, I just felt we were there in the game. We made some attacking subs and wanted to see how it all landed. Mason is coming back and only had a couple of days training.
．Quick turnaround for Liverpool, is that important?
Well, we've got no time to feel sorry for ourselves. We have to respond and prepare for another big game. It's as simple as that.
．Were Mendy, Aubameyang, Zakaria, Ziyech and David Fofana?
All but Mendy were fit.
．It was the tenth goal this season conceded from a corner, what is going wrong?
The one today is a strike from the edge of the box. If you look at the xG of the goal, it's probably not that big a chance. It's a great strike, second phase, edge of the box, these things can sometimes happen. In general we've made some improvement from the turn of the year. Clearly we need to improve, you only have to look at the league table to see that.
．How worried are you about the defence?
That's the thing we need to look at I think. Even though we had some opportunities ourselves and attacked well ourselves, we gave up too many opportunities. The one with Watkins is the one that sticks to mind. Apart from that, not too much. At the same time, that is too big a chance for us, we need to do better there and that's on me and I have to take that responsibility.
．What would you give for a striker like Didier Drogba or Diego Costa?
There's nothing for me to say. I've got the players I have. They gave everything today, as much as we're all disappointed with the result they did. The intent of the team was there, the attack was there but the scoreline is painful for us so there's not too much I can say that seems positive.
．Is the negativity from the fans transmitting to the players?
They're professional footballers, they play for Chelsea, they understand the demand, they understand what it is, where we are, they're not stupid. They accept the responsibility, they're honest, they want to do better. We're there fighting for each other and fighting together so there's no complaints for how the supporters respond.
．Some debate about which player was at fault for first goal. A mix-up between Kalidou Koulibaly and Marc Cucurella?
It's football, it's one action, it can happen. A bit of a miscommunication I think. That's something for me to take to responsibility for, for me to look at and do better with.
