One Chelsea legend has criticised manager Mauricio Pochettino’s in-game management decisions as The Blues fail to beat bottom of the table Sheffield United, twice throwing away a lead.
It’s been pretty typical from a weak Chelsea under Pochettino, a soft Chelsea who concede goals for fun and throw away leads for fun.
EXCLUSIVE! Chelsea add new striker name to summer shortlist and still hold Dusan Vlahovic interest!
Legend Frank Leboeuf has called out Pochettino’s substitutions, or a lack of them, in his words in the aftermath of the game, and to be perfectly honest, he’s absolutely spot on here.
The former Chelsea centre back has questioned why Pochettino tried to save the 2-1 rather than put attackers on and try and score more.
Frank Leboeuf: "When you are #Chelsea, you have to put attackers [on]. Try to score the third goal, don't just try to save the 2-1. What do you expect from a club that has to put [on] defenders to save a lead against the bottom of the league? That says a lot for me."

Chelsea were playing a team who has been leaking goals and are rock bottom of the league, if we don’t go there, attack, and play on the front foot, then where will we go and play like that at? They actually had more attempts and shots on goal than Chelsea did!
