Graham Potter says his positive personal transformation after taking over as Chelsea manager was the result of a haircut which cost him far more than expected after he went to the same hairdresser as his players. Potter’s brilliance became a hot topic on social media after he replaced Thomas Tuchel last month, with the 47-year-old former Brighton & Hove Albion manager sporting a shorter, fuller beard.
“Someone told me the other day that I had a glow. I have no idea what it was. My face is growing like a fine wine,” Potter said before Premier’s trip League on Sunday at Aston Villa. “I got a cut from someone who cuts boys’ hair, so that probably made a difference. It cost a lot more than I thought.”
Potter’s edgier style on the touchline thanks to a black turtleneck jumper also attracted attention, with some users on social media comparing him to, among other things, James Bond. “I would like discussions about me to be a little more intellectual than about my sweater or my haircut,” Potter added. “But you have to fill it (24-hour news) with something so it might as well be my sweater.
“I don’t like seeing myself on TV, my hands are sweaty and I prefer to go to the dentist.”
