Mauricio Pochettino is determined to maintain his position as Chelsea manager despite facing a challenging situation after seven months in charge.
Under Argentine leadership, Chelsea has struggled to make progress, remaining in mid-table after 26 Premier League games this season, a stark contrast to last year’s 12th-place finish.
The Blues’ recent match with Brentford resulted in a 2-2 draw, with Axel Disasi’s late equaliser salvaged the game after a nearly lost first-half lead.
Pochettino’s pressure has increased significantly due to the West Londoners’ 1-0 loss to Liverpool in the Carabao Cup final on February 25.
Chelsea’s performance against Brentford resulted in boos and chants of ‘f*** off’, indicating a loss of patience from fans towards manager Pochettino.
The Standard reports that the former Tottenham coach is determined to remain and fight to regain the support of his fans.
Blues face Newcastle United next Monday, potentially worsening Pochettino’s situation. Former Bayern bosses Hansi Flick and Julian Nagelsmann are potential replacements if he is sacked.
The question is whether Mauricio Pochettino should continue as Chelsea manager next season.
