BREAKING: #Chelsea Make Final Decision On When To Sack Mauricio Pochettino—According to reports, Chelsea will wait until the end of the season to assess Mauricio Pochettino’s future as manager of the club.
The Chelsea manager has been under increasing pressure following a poor run of results this season, with two wins in their last six matches in all competitions, and back-to-back games where the Blues have conceded four goals.
The atmosphere turned poisonous following the 4-2 home defeat to Wolves in the Premier League, with supporters booing Blues players at half-time and full-time, as well as individually during substitutions.
Pochettino, when speaking after the game, admitted that he and the players are “not good enough” at the moment. He said: “I think we are all not. At the moment, that is the reality. Myself, also, to be the first responsible for this situation.
“What we were showing today, that we are not good enough. I agree with you 100%. We didn’t manage the situation properly and no-one can be safe. I don’t want to come here and say I am the best. We are all responsible.
“Even the players. The players need to take some responsibility like I am taking the responsibility, also. I agree with you, at the moment, we are not matching the history of the club. That is true, we have to accept and we need to be critical and not give up. We need to keep working to try and change, maybe take a decision, try to find things in a different way.”
However, despite the pressure surrounding Pochettino’s place as manager, Neewsmen understands that the club will continue to back the boss until the end of the season, when his position will be considered.
The Blues are back in action on Wednesday evening against Aston Villa in a replay of their FA Cup fourth-round tie, with Pochettino’s side under huge pressure to produce a result.
The FA Cup is one of two remaining opportunities for Chelsea to pick up meaningful success this season, with Pochettino’s side facing Liverpool in the Carabao Cup final but lying 11th in the Premier League table with 15 games remaining – 15 points behind Villa in fourth.
