Chelsea fans are demanding Mauricio Pochettino’s removal following the team’s 2-1 loss to Wolves in the Premier League, adding to the mounting pressure on the former PSG coach. Despite substantial summer signings, Chelsea has struggled in the league, securing only six wins in their initial 18 games. Wolves’ goals from Mario Lemina and Matt Doherty in the second half marked Chelsea’s eighth loss of the year.
Christopher Nkunku’s late header on his Premier League debut reduced the deficit for Pochettino’s team. Frustration among Chelsea fans surfaced on social media with the hashtag #PochettinoOut trending. Criticism targeted Pochettino’s tactical decisions, player selections, and perceived underperformance from starting strikers. Fans expressed disappointment with the team’s setup, tactics, and the lack of substantial improvement despite significant investments.
Pochettino defended Chelsea’s performance, arguing that they should have gained more from the match, highlighting numerous chances created in the first half that went unconverted. As Chelsea prepares to face Crystal Palace at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday, both the team and supporters are anticipating an immediate response.
