‘Most useless victory ever’ – Fans troll Chelsea despite win over Leeds United
Chelsea returned to winning ways with a 1-0 win over Leeds United in Saturday’s Premier League encounter at Stamford Bridge.
The Blues last won a competitive game against Crystal Palace in the league on January 15, which remained their only win in 2023 until the returning Wesley Fofana’s 53rd minute header. The goal was also Chelsea’s first in four matches.
The victory relieves a bit of pressure under manager Graham Potter but Chelsea fans have mixed feelings about the result as a lot still needs to be done to improve the team, especially in scoring goals. Furthermore, the score line did not stop rival fans from trolling the six-time Premier League winners, as many termed the victory as “useless”.

If the opening 20 minutes of game today is the template of what to expect from Chelsea in 70 out of 90 minutes of every game next season.
Would you give Potter a chance or go for another manager? pic.twitter.com/gsJlMVyjiO

Since November 6, Chelsea had only scored six goals in their last 16 games in all comps and they hadn't scored since February 11.

That win is dedicated to all the Chelsea โfansโ that wanted us to lose today ๐

I've been supporting Chelsea for 19 years, so if you think I will ever want them to lose a match just to get a bad coach sacked, then you're absolutely right. Get Graham Potter out of this beautiful club!! ๐ญ

Chelsea is very weird right now. Potter has been poor. Club in a place theyโve never been before. Huge squad. Loads of new players. No excuses from me. Itโs an unprecedented situation and needs to improve fast, all at the club know this. A win is a win; big improvements needed.

Our last three losses have been against the three worst sides I can remember us facing this year.
How can the gameplan we used against City and Chelsea be the same one we play against Leicester and Wolves?
ยฃ15m a season.
It's insane. #thfc

If Chelsea want any chance of beating Dortmund, Graham Potter should be sacked regardless of today's result. He's got us playing like a relegation side against 17th place Leeds. There's been no progress since September. Act before it's too late.

I wish Chelsea play their matches in Nigeria, Oshodi to be precise.
So the fans can tell Havertz how good he is.๐๐ผ

So clear Havertz was a major issue last season. One goal every 10 games simply not good enough for role given in this team. Not major improvement since arriving either. With Nkunku coming, should #CFC cash in?

Should we be concerned over the lack of game time for Mykhailo Mudryk, or is it a case of Graham Potter realising he needs to ease him into the team slowly? pic.twitter.com/yW727eqKl6
