Chelsea boss Graham Potter passionately responds when reporter asks: ‘What makes you angry?’

Graham Potter hit back with a passionate response after a reporter suggested the under-fire manager “doesn’t get angry enough”.

He added that people who think he got to his position at Chelsea by being “nice” don’t know “anything about anything”.
