Chelsea coach Mauricio Pochettino made a sad observation about his team.
Chelsea continues its path of the cross. After the defeat against Wolverhampton (2-4) in the Premier League on Sunday, the tenth this season, the noose is tightening on Mauricio Pochettino. Arriving at Stamford Bridge this summer to succeed interim Frank Lampard, the Argentinian is struggling to find the right formula.
With the Blues, eleventh in the standings, the 51-year-old coach has only won 15 of the 31 matches played, conceding 5 draws and 11 defeats. A record which worsens with the new home defeat against Wolves. Present before the media after the match, he gave an honest assessment of his team.
“We do not live up to the history of the club”
“I think we’re not all good enough, that’s the reality. Me too, as the first person responsible, said Pochettino to Sky Sportss. We showed we weren’t good enough. I agree 100%. We didn’t handle the situation properly, and I don’t want to come here and say I’m the best and the players are the worst, but the players have to take responsibility like I do. We do not live up to the history of the club. We have to accept it and be critical, but we cannot give up.”
And the former Parisian added: “We must continue to work, strive to change, make decisions to try to find different solutions if things do not work this way. »
