In the aftermath of Chelsea’s draw against Aston Villa, the disapproving murmurs of the fanbase have coalesced into a resounding chorus, imploring manager Mauricio Pochettino to reconsider his deployment of Cole Palmer as a false nine.

The déjà vu of Palmer’s stint in this unconventional role, reminiscent of the Middlesbrough clash at the Riverside, became a disconcerting refrain. A litany of missed scoring opportunities, evoking a sense of deja vu, unfolded once again, leaving the Stamford Bridge faithful grappling with a palpable sense of frustration.

The dismayed echoes from the fanbase now serve as a vocal plea to Pochettino, beseeching him to desist from subjecting Cole Palmer to the rigors of the striker position. The sentiment is unanimous among Chelsea supporters – a collective plea urging the Blues boss to preserve the player’s potential and not let his capabilities be marred by the burden of an ill-fitted role.

As the aftermath of the Villa encounter reverberates through the digital realm, Chelsea aficionados, with a tinge of exasperation, implore Pochettino to heed their collective plea: “Don’t ruin him in that position.” The resonance of this entreaty lingers in the air, a fervent hope that the tactical misstep does not become a recurrent motif in Palmer’s burgeoning career.

Mauricio Pochettino: "We are going to try with Cole Palmer and Gallagher to find some more options. Sometimes Palmer will be a striker or sometimes it will be Gallagher. We will try and move a little bit and not give too much to Aston Villa."
