Graham Potter's Chelsea can't even compete against a Man City without star players, and fans are fed up

MANCHESTER, England -- Manchester City sent Chelsea crashing to a fifth defeat in seven games and out of the FA Cup as goals from Riyad Mahrez, Julian Alvarez and Phil Foden sealed an easy win at the Etihad Stadium.

The third-round defeat means Chelsea's only hope of silverware this season is in the Champions League -- they face Borussia Dortmund in the Round of 16 -- but on this evidence, Chelsea won't be lifting the European Cup in Istanbul in June.
