Mauricio Pochettino and Todd Boehly

Mauricio Pochettino ‘set to miss out’ on board targets made in the summer

Mauricio Pochettino is now set to miss out on targets set by the Chelsea board in the summer when he was appointed, according to a report this morning.

This could also lead to more severe consequences for the Blues boss, who is now under real pressure to get results in the next few games.

Pochettino saw his side lose to Liverpool in The League Cup Final on Sunday afternoon and whilst losing to such a good team is not a bad thing, it was the nature in which they lost that seemingly disappointed and angered an entire fan base again and also the club’s ownership.

But according to journalist Simon Phillips writing on his Substack site today, Pochettino was tasked to reach 5th/6th place in the Premier League this season, and that now looks like a super tough and unlikely task at this stage of the season.

Phillips also says that the club at least wanted Europa League football and that also, the pressure is once again firmly on the Blues manager.

  1. Good morning to All Chelsea fans please The couch does not have football patterns he doesn’t know how to do changes he makes mistakes on changes issues and where to fix each players I’m not happy about it because I’m a Chelsea fan from Nigerian My name is blessing Saturday Marcus thanks

  2. I recommend a piece put out by The Athletic that gives a far more balanced assessment of Poch’s resolve in the face of Neville’s and others’ criticism. It’s a way a better read than anything I’ve seen posted to Chelsea News since the match Sunday.
