Having lost 1-0 to managerless Southampton last weekend, Chelsea‘s disappointing seasonreached a new low, putting Graham Potter under intense pressure.Yet, thanks to a free-kick goalfrom James Ward-Prowse, the Saints were able to steal a victory at Stamford Bridge despite sitting last in the Premier League and having won just one of their previous 11 league games.

As a result, Chelsea arenow 10th in the league table, 11 points behind the top four teams. They have lost nine of their past 15 games in all competitions. To make matters worse,on Saturday, Blues supporters booed the team’s managerfor thedismal record of only nine wins in 25 games under his leadership since he replaced Thomas Tuchel in September.

While Boehly and co-owner Behdad Eghbali have shown no signs of wavering in their support for the former Brighton manager, they are also not looking to replace him. And apparently, Thiago Silva’s wife Isabelle Silva disagrees with such a viewpoint.
