Chelsea boss Graham Potter says he has no problem with the jeers from fans during defeat at home to Aston Villa.

The Blues were booed as Villa won 2-0 on Saturday night.

Potter said: "They're professional footballers, they play for Chelsea, they understand the demand, they understand what it is, where we are, they're not stupid. They accept the responsibility, they're honest, they want to do better. We're there fighting for each other and fighting together so there's no complaints for how the supporters respond."

Potter was also asked why Mason Mount was left on the bench.

"With Mason, I just felt we were there in the game. We made some attacking subs and wanted to see how it all landed. Mason is coming back and only had a couple of days training."
