The pressure was really on Mauricio Pochettino after Chelsea’s last game. The draw with Brentford saw the away fans really turn on him, and ever since then he’s been barraged with questions about that.
Tonight he gets to hold his head high after a win, and he addressed the “relationship” with the supporters that he said he and his players need to “build.”
The only way to do that, of course, is to keep winning. And they have the perfect chance to do that with another 3 games at Stamford Bridge to come this month.
You can see the Chelsea coach speaking in the clip embedded here:
“We need to build this relationship with the fans… they were behind us” 💪
