management is as powerful as tactics. Porter is the chosen one in the position of Blues?
If Chelsea really wants to push it to reconstruction, then Porter is really a suitable coach.
Premier League After the first 6 rounds, Brighton scored 3 more points than Chelsea, ranking 2 places higher. The former's resources and investment are obviously not as good as those of the powerful men such as the Blues.
Don't worry about the small competition sample size. Porter's achievements in Brighton have been tested by time. He implemented his philosophy. The Seagulls played pass-by football, and his abilities were not only reflected in the tactical level.
In the view of Burley, who is in charge of the Blue Bridge for 100 days, the 47-year-old Porter is more suitable to coach Chelsea than Tuhell , who led the team to win the Champions League championship 15 months ago.
But this decision has also attracted a lot of doubts. After all, Porter only won 15th and 16th place in the Premier League in his first two seasons of coaching Brighton.
It is indeed a bit unkind to fire Tuchel, but if Burley wanted to find a coach who could better cooperate with him to achieve his long-term plan (he expressed this view in private), it would be wise to change the coach this time.
Potter's coaching career began in Ostsund, and he brought the bottom team from the 4th level of Sweden to the European stage. "If you can do a good job in signing, create a good atmosphere, and set the style, the team's confidence and momentum will naturally rise." Porter once told Sky Sports.
In recent years, Brighton has become one of the most cohesive teams in the Premier League, with a net profit of £30 million. Porter made an indelible contribution.
Houton era, Brighton was a long-term pass team, and after Porter took charge of the Seal, the Seagulls' legion was flexible in tactics and skillful in passing control. During Tuchel's coaching period, Chelsea's tactical style seemed to be not very clear (even when the results were the best).

What exactly can Porter, who seamlessly succeeded Bantuhull, bring to Chelsea?
Trosard and Porter joined Brighton in the same summer window. In recent seasons, the winger has played in the No. 10 position, pseudo-9 , midfielder and even fullback, and has performed brilliantly in every position.
Except Porter, who else would transform the nearly 2-meter-high central defender Bourne into a left-back? There are countless similar examples. Gross, Alzart, Feltman and McAllister are all competent in multiple positions. In terms of players' versatility, Brighton is considered unique in the Premier League.
This reflects the super plasticity of this group of players, and it also proves that Coach Porter knows people and uses them well and can turn stones into gold.
Tuheer once helped Rudiger realize his potential and grew into one of the strongest central defenders in the Premier League, but recently he has used his tricks to pull Chelsea's best cross and wingback James to the right central defender.
" (Potter's biggest advantage is that he has done a good pre-match plan and will explain all the requirements to us," McAllister told Sky Sports this week,
"He has a very powerful tactics, his coaching staff is also very good, and he always tries his way to help us in all aspects. He is really important to us, and I am very happy to play football under him." Outside the game, Porter also helped Brighton make real money. Kukurelia transfers to Chelsea, and the Seagulls make a net profit of £40 million. Bisuma was also bought by Tottenham this summer, and Kesedo is rumored to be the winter window target of Liverpool . These players have all increased their goals under Porter.
Potter's confidant and recruiting analyst Kyle Macaulay will follow him to change the camp, which should be good news for the Blues.It is reported that the reason why Brighton signed players such as Cucurella and Kesedo was behind it that Macaulay was giving advice to Porter.
has nothing to do with the new boss and team members. One of the reasons why Tuchel was dismissed. Porter, who has a calm personality, should not have any trouble in this regard.
When Porter was a coach in Sweden, he regarded leading the team as much as managing training. He held a "culture academy" in Ostersonde, helped the players get out of their small circle, arranged them to organize art exhibitions, and took them to watch the ballet " Swan Lake ".
"We must keep an open attitude towards new things, eliminate barriers and various hierarchies in the team, and guide players to be ordinary people." Porter said in an interview with Sky Sports.
"He is a coach with our players," former Swansea winger Nathan Dell told Sky Sports, "He is the problem-solving person. Tactical he is ridiculously strong, and everyone knows what they should do when they come on the court. This is what he will bring to Chelsea."
"He is a very stable person. He gave you instructions. If the final result is not good, he will take responsibility. He never uses others as a shield."

Potter also has a problem: he has never coached a wealthy family. Previously, he had only been in Ostersund, Swansea and Brighton. In the future, can he manage the big names of Chelsea?
However, there is no need to worry too much about this. Brighton has Larana and other old players in Welbeck, and Porter is doing well with them.
The giants are more proactive than weak teams and pay more attention to transmission and control. This is not difficult for Porter, because Brighton has always been a strong team playing style - in some key data, they are comparable to Big6.
"From my experience working with him, Porter is a very profound thinker," Larana earlier this year. "He and the coaching staff worked 12 hours a day. If you want to do your best, you have to do it and you can't miss any opportunity."
"You should pay attention to all aspects of the team. There are 25 players, each of them is in different stages of their careers and life, and they have their own different problems, but Porter and his team really take care of all aspects, no matter how big or small."
There is no "certain" in the football world, not to mention that Burley bets this time was a coach of a wealthy junior brother. But if anyone is ready to make some results at Chelsea now, this person must be Porter. Now, all he needs is enough time.
