Chelsea star Cole Palmer sends clear message to Todd Boehly after Brighton win
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Chelsea’s Cole Palmer has opened up about the sentiments within the team regarding their manager, Mauricio Pochettino.
Under Pochettino’s guidance, Chelsea clinched another victory, defeating Brighton & Hove Albion 2-1 at the Amex Stadium. This win marks their fourth consecutive triumph in the Premier League.
In the wake of Newcastle United’s 3-2 loss to Manchester United, Chelsea has ascended to sixth place in the standings.
Securing a single point against Bournemouth on Sunday will ensure their position and a spot in the Europa League.
However, a potential drop to the Europa Conference League looms if they finish sixth and Manchester United triumphs over Manchester City in the FA Cup final. At the Amex, Palmer netted his 22nd Premier League goal of the season, matching Frank Lampard’s record from the 2009/10 season.
Cole Palmer on Mauricio Pochettino
Despite Pochettino’s recent success at Chelsea, his position isn’t entirely secure.
Journalist Simon Phillips reports an end-of-season review meeting on Monday, where the club will evaluate everything. Palmer, however, has voiced strong support for Pochettino.
Speaking to BBC Sport after the Brighton match, the 22-year-old remarked, “Chelsea is a big club and everyone wants to finish higher than sixth, but you have to consider where we started this season. Returning to European competition is a step in the right direction.
“All credit to the manager. The players adore him and are willing to fight for him.”
Mauricio Pochettino’s Accomplishments Post-Brighton Victory
Pochettino’s efforts merit recognition following the team’s success at the Amex. The squad’s performance has notably improved, with attackers showing great form.
Palmer’s goal, his 22nd in the Premier League, was complemented by a score from Christopher Nkunku.
It’s clear why Chelsea’s players are fond of their manager. However, it’s the club’s owners that Pochettino must ultimately impress.
