Honestly, if Mauricio Pochettino as being paid to annoy Chelsea fans, he couldn’t have done a better job than he did today.
The list of bizarre decisions is endless, so how about we stick to those which have directly affected the outcome, rather than lamenting once again the overall aimlessness and lack of attacking and defensive organisation in the the team.
First he picked our second string goalkeeper, for no real season. Robert Sanchez has been nervy and has made the whole defence look shaky.
Then he gave out one of his usual half time sedative team talks. He should have been hauling off the players playing badly, instead he sent them all back out and made no changes.
To cap it all off, after Raheem Sterling infuriated the fans with missed chances and bad decisions for 80 minutes, the coach elected to leave the winger on and take off the far more dangerous Mykhailo Mudryk instead.
The fans at Stamford Bridge responded to that change by signing “you don’t know what you’re doing,” and they may have a point.
