Mauricio Pochettino was involved in a heated exchange with a journalist after Monday night’s win over Everton at Stamford Bridge.
It was a brilliant performance from Chelsea as they ran out 6-0 winners to record their biggest win under the Argentine.
It should have been an evening of celebration but a farcical argument between Noni Madueke and Nicolas Jackson over who should take the penalty took the gloss off the night.
Clearly furious the 52-year-old addressed the situation after the game and showed leadership and authority when asked about the incident and revealed that Cole Palmer was the designated penalty taker.
Pochettino also warned it would be the last time that type of behaviour happens and it would be punished if it happened again.
Apparently the Argentine stopped the press conference early because he was unhappy at constantly being asked about the penalty incident rather than the rest of the match.
One journalist took exception to this and got embroiled in a heated exchange with the Chelsea manager.
