Blues boss Mauricio Pochettino admits that he is feeling the Chelsea fan pressure and the responsibility to be winning more games at the club as head coach.
Chelsea fans have been on the back of the manager this season with his team sitting in 11th place in the Premier League as we head towards the middle of March. It’s far from good enough regardless of the circumstances, injury list, and the fact we keep being told that Chelsea are in a long transitional project. 11th in the league will never been good enough, and rightly so.
Chelsea fans need to see more progression and more improvements to buy into it, and everyone has been feeling the pressure from them whether it’s the manager, the players, or the owners.
Pochettino has taken a bit of accountability in his latest comments, and says that he has a responsibility to win as Chelsea manager and provide good feelings to the fans.
In words cited by The Evening Standard, Pochettino said: “The responsibility is to win and provide good feelings to the fans. You feel the responsibility when things are not so good.”
