LONDON (Reuters) - Chelsea manager Graham Potter and his family have received anonymous death threats following the Premier League club's poor run of results, he told reporters on Friday.
Chelsea are 10th in the table with two wins in their last 14 games and have only scored once at home this year.
"The challenge for me is, 'OK, how do I conduct myself?' That's what I always turn round to. The higher you go, the more pressure you have on how you are as a person." "I want to succeed here. There is this nonsense that I don't care. Where does that come from? Where's your evidence on that?," he added, ahead of Sunday's trip to Tottenham Hotspur."You can answer it two ways. I could say I don't care, but you know I'm lying. Everyone cares what people think, because we're hardwired to be socially connected."
Asked if it had rocked him, he said:"Not really. It's just a throwaway line, I think. I don't give it any more weight than that.
