Mauricio Pochettino’s reaction to Chelsea’s recent loss against Manchester United might seem surprising to some after his visible frustration following the defeat to Newcastle a while back.

However, in his post-match conference after the game against Manchester United, Pochettino’s demeanour was noticeably different.

Addressing queries about disappointment and comparisons to the previous defeat, Pochettino redirected the conversation.

He emphasized the challenges faced, citing player absences and fatigue as key factors impacting the team’s performance. With a roster nearly identical to the one against Brighton and a day less for preparation against Manchester United, Pochettino highlighted the strain on the squad.

“I’m not disappointed because the team gave their all,” he stated.

“However, there was a discrepancy in energy levels; they seemed a bit more aggressive. We were competitive, created chances, possibly enough to level the game. But when the score remains 2-1, receiving no points draws more criticism. We must stay composed, continue our efforts, support the players, and gear up for Sunday.”

Observers might interpret Pochettino’s remarks as an attempt to alleviate pressure from the team amid a challenging period. With the team’s performance under scrutiny and concerns mounting, Pochettino appears focused on preserving morale and maintaining composure.

There’s a sense of urgency in Pochettino’s words, acknowledging the risk of losing fan support if improvements don’t manifest soon. His efforts seem directed at alleviating stress from the players, who, according to him, are currently falling short of expectations.
