In general, throughout the 2023/24 campaign, the Blues have performed well below par, and Poch has had to carry the can. Just as with Thomas Tuchel and Graham Potter before him, Pochettino has had to put up with the constant meddling of Chelsea’s owner, Todd Boehly, too. Pochettino needs to walk out of Chelsea Results have needed to b ..read more

However, a 6-0 home defeat by Arsenal which saw thousands of Hammers supporters walk out at half-time, has reversed the narrative, and ever since then, with perhaps the second leg against Bayer Leverkusen in the Europa League aside, the Irons have ta ..read more
