During Saturday’s 2-2 match between Chelsea and Brentford, Mauricio Pochettino faced jeers from Chelsea supporters. Nick Jackson netted Chelsea’s initial goal at the Gtech Community Stadium, connecting with Malo Gusto’s precise cross and directing a header past Mark Flekken. Brentford equalized early in the second half when Mads Roerslev capitalized on Chelsea’s defensive lapse, scoring from close range.
In the 69th minute, Yoane Wissa’s superb one-touch finish put Chelsea in a precarious position, triggering a chorus of “f*** off, Mauricio” from disgruntled Chelsea fans, who also chanted the names of Roman Abramovich and Jose Mourinho, exacerbating Pochettino’s predicament.
Despite Axel Disasi salvaging a draw for Chelsea with an 88th-minute header from Cole Palmer’s delivery, the result leaves Chelsea languishing in 11th place in the Premier League standings. Consequently, Pochettino finds himself once again under scrutiny regarding his tenure at Stamford Bridge.
