Graham Potter explains why Chelsea didn't try to sign an established centre-forward

Graham Potter addressed the lack of centre-forward options at Chelsea even after the January transfer window. The Blues did sign Datro Fofana but he isn't an established top division player yet.

"We’ve tried to address the goalscoring problem in terms of helping the team attack better," Potter explained.

"You can zoom into one position but teams in the past four or five years have won the Premier League without a recognised centre-forward, arguably.

"It’s better for the team to attack better, to play better, to create more chances, to be more dangerous in attack. That’s the best way to solve the problem of not scoring enough goals."

Potter is right to point out that teams have relied more on goalscoring wingers and midfielders rather than traditional centre-forwards over the last four or five seasons. Hopefully Chelsea's newest wingers can do the achieve similar levels.
