Mauricio Pochettino And Emma Hayes Extend Heartfelt Christmas Wishes To Chelsea Fans Worldwide

In a heartwarming festive address, Mauricio Pochettino and Emma Hayes, Chelsea’s esteemed men’s and women’s head coaches, share their heartfelt messages and reflections on the holiday season, resonating with the joy and significance of family during this special time.

Emma Hayes begins by underlining the profound value of family, expressing her delight in having loved ones close during the holiday season.

“Family is everything,” she emphasizes. It is those treasured moments; drinking together, laughing, or engaging in board game play. It’s the magic of being surrounded by family, close friends, and loved ones. Christmas is solely about family, and I cherish that.”

Pochettino echoes Emma’s sentiments, drawing from his childhood in Argentina, revealing the stark contrast in Christmas experiences due to the climate disparity.

“We had a farm, so Christmas meant playful moments on the farm, diving into the swimming pool, followed by a grand lunch with our extended family – a gathering of 24 or 25 of us. It was a day of festive celebration!”

Reflecting on childhood nostalgia, Emma fondly recalls the exhilaration of Christmas mornings and how perspectives evolve with age.

“As a child, Christmas mornings were sheer delight,” she fondly recalls.

“The anticipation of unwrapping a pile of presents left by Father Christmas was thrilling. But as we grow older, the focus shifts. It’s about relishing a delightful Christmas feast, enjoying turkey and all the fixings, and then indulging in family games.”

Concluding their messages, both coaches extend warm wishes to the Chelsea faithful. Pochettino emphasizes the significance of unity and shared experiences during this time. It’s a unique period, and we aim to reward you with victories on the field, making this Christmas special through our performances.

Emma, in her parting words, urges fans to spread cheer beyond their circles, advocating for empathy and compassion. It’s vital to spread kindness during this season of giving.

In their heartfelt messages, Pochettino and Hayes encapsulate the spirit of Christmas, emphasizing the importance of family, togetherness, and extending goodwill to all.
