The Chelsea manager appeared very marked this Friday at a press conference.
A fan of polite speeches bordering on wooden language, Mauricio Pochettino departed from his habits for his appearance in front of the press this Friday. While Chelsea remains on a big setback against Newcastle (1-4), the Argentine technician used very strong terms to call on his men to react.
“ You know very well what my state of mind was after the match against Newcastlethundered Pochettino. I’m not here to act. I’m not going to show a face that isn’t mine. When I’m happy, I’m happy, and when I’m not happy, I’m not happy. And with the players, it’s the same thing. We let our club down because what happened on Saturday was we weren’t a team. I don’t want us to think that“.
“Maybe my approach wasn’t the right one”
“ There are not players on one side and coaches on the other, continued the former PSG coach. Everyone works together. I think it’s always important to put the situation in context, and I think it’s important that players talk to coaches in a natural way, when we’re angry and when we’re happy. We have been tough in our analysis, but to be tough is to tell the truth, to show the things that we have not done. But we don’t blame them, we blame everyone, me first, because maybe my approach wasn’t the right one. »
A powerful speech before another important match against Brighton, this Sunday (3 p.m.).
