Despite a section of the Chelsea faithful expressing their dissatisfaction, Pochettino asserts that he still feels the love at Stamford Bridge.
Emphasizing the uniqueness of the current project at Chelsea, Pochettino urged people to understand the evolving nature of the club. “It’s a different Chelsea.

Never.” The speculations regarding Mourinho’s return to Chelsea, especially after his departure from AS Roma, have been rife.

Unfazed by the ongoing discussions, Mauricio Pochettino exuded confidence in his players, emphasizing their commitment and intelligence. As Chelsea gears up for a crucial Premier League clash against Newcastle United on Monday, Pochettino remains resolute, aiming for a positive result that could propel his team up the table.
