Chelsea boss Graham Potter is pleased to be off the mark with victory at Crystal Palace.

It was a first win since his appointment.

Potter said, “On a personal level, it's nice to get the first win under the belt. I'm really pleased for the players because the pattern has been starting well away from home and then conceding and not getting the three points or any points.

"So they could've felt sorry for themselves but they didn't. They kept going and pushing in the game. It was a tight game, could've gone either way in fairness but we've edged it. That's how difficult it is here at Crystal Palace.

"Pressure and expectation are increased because of Chelsea's standing in the football hierarchy. That's what it is. But that's why I took the challenge and why I am here. Regardless of what you guys ask me and the narrative that comes from you, I tend to focus on the job I have, which is working with the players, helping them improve and helping them win. Thankfully, I've got off to a decent start but I know there is a long way ahead."
