- Chelsea supporters are vehemently calling for Mauricio Pochettino’s dismissal following the team’s disappointing 2-1 loss to Wolves in the Premier League. The defeat at Molineux on Christmas Eve has exacerbated the mounting pressure on the former PSG coach.
Despite significant summer signings, Chelsea’s inconsistency in the Premier League persists, with only six wins in their first 18 games. Goals from Mario Lemina and Matt Doherty in the second half secured Wolves’ victory, marking Chelsea’s eighth loss of the season. Christopher Nkunku’s late header provided a glimmer of hope, but it wasn’t enough to salvage the match.
Frustrated Chelsea fans have taken to social media with the trending hashtag #PochettinoOut to voice their grievances. Criticisms range from tactical decisions to player selections, with many questioning Pochettino’s managerial abilities and the team’s overall performance.
Pochettino, on the other hand, defended Chelsea’s efforts, insisting they should have capitalized on their chances. Looking ahead, both the manager and supporters are eager for redemption as Chelsea faces Crystal Palace at Stamford Bridge.
The calls for Pochettino’s dismissal underscore the intense scrutiny and high expectations surrounding one of football’s most prestigious clubs, as both fans and management demand immediate improvement and results.
