I’d understand if Pochettino does decide to quit Chelsea – Talk Chelsea

There’s been some rumours around today suggesting that Mauricio Pochettino could quit his role as Chelsea head coach this week.

As you will know, there are some reviews and meetings taking place this week, with Pochettino’s future unclear. Chelsea could pull the plug, but Pochettino could also walk apparently. And to be honest, I’d completely understand if he did.

And he wants a new striker. Proven Premier League players is a regular theme as to what Pochettino wants in new players coming in.

Personally I think if you are a head coach of a team and you feel you need a certain profile or a player to make your setup work or to replace a certain profile that you already had in your team, then you have every right to ask for it. I also think that if the club you work for are planning to sell key players who you have pretty much picked in your team at every…
