What Chelsea’s head coach has to say about why Mudryk was benched
Mauricio Pochettino speaks with Chelsea’s official app about his decision to start Raheem Sterling rather than Mykhailo Mudryk.
Even though Sterling just recovered from a sickness, the coach indicated he is prepared to play. The former Liverpool star fared well early in the season and should be really motivated to regain his spot.
As the Chelsea manager put it, “Raheem comes in after getting over a virus, and we know what he can offer us from the start.”
We merely need to replace one good player with another; we don’t need to adjust our plan.
Despite the fact that both players are talented, Pochettino maintains that the approach that was successful on Monday doesn’t need to be altered.
We fully comprehend everything. Mudryk has performed admirably in his most recent starts, but a player who depends on speed and explosion is always willing to be replaced. Young but seasoned player Sterling has the potential to come in and cause significant harm.
While Mudryk sits on the bench, he is prepared to assist the team in the second half if necessary.
