NEW CHELSEA COACH POTTER FACES TOUGH FIRST TEST: Graham Potter will take charge of Chelsea for the first time tomorrow night as his new team face Red Bull Salzburg in match day two of the Champions League. The Group E clash will be the first time the former Brighton coach gets a taste of his new life in the Blues dugout and it will be a tough test in such an important and high profile tie. Chelsea lost their first match against Dinamo Zagreb which resulted in the shock sacking of coach Thomas Tuchel who had been in charge for just over 19 months and now the pressure will be on 47-year-old Potter to deliver the goods with immediate effect. But with very little management experience at the highest level, it could be a difficult start for him. All eyes will be on Stamford Bridge tomorrow night to see how he and his new team get on.

Even though it is often quoted as the greatest TV show ever made, it has never won an Emmy. (By Jennifer Barretto, Assistant Editor – Features)
