Mauricio Pochettino, the manager of Chelsea, has announced that two more players will be unavailable for the upcoming Premier League match against Tottenham due to injuries. Thiago Silva and Axel Disasi will join the list of absentees, which already includes Ben Chilwell, Raheem Sterling, Reece James, and Enzo Fernandez. Pochettino stated during his pre-match press conference that there is “no good news” regarding injuries and that the team will have to adapt without these key players.
When asked about the severity of Chelsea’s injury problems this season, Pochettino attributed it to a “different method” and acknowledged that there are areas for improvement. However, he emphasized that the team has excellent medical professionals and will strive to do better next season.
The match against Tottenham, Pochettino’s former team, will be an emotional encounter. Tottenham is currently fifth in the Premier League and is still vying for a Champions League spot. However, they will be without Ben Davies and Timo Werner, who are out for the rest of the season. Despite this, Pochettino is looking forward to the challenge, stating that it will be an “amazing” game.
Chelsea and Tottenham have a history of intense matches, and this one promises to be no exception. With both teams eager to secure a win, it will be a thrilling encounter. Pochettino is aware of the emotional aspect of facing his former team, but he is focused on securing a victory for Chelsea. The match will be a testament to the team’s resilience and determination in the face of adversity.
