Under-fire Pochettino reveals ‘good text’ from Chelsea owners

Mauricio Pochettino said on Tuesday he had received a “very good text” from Chelsea’s owners as the pressure mounts on the Argentine manager following back-to-back Premier League defeats.

The Stamford Bridge club dropped to 11th in the table after Sunday’s chastening 4-2 home defeat by Wolves, which followed a heavy 4-1 loss at Liverpool.

Chelsea have spent more than £1 billion ($1.25 billion) on transfers since Todd Boehly’s takeover in May 2022 but have little to show for their vast outlay.

Last season the club ended up 12th in the Premier League – their lowest finish since 1994 – and they have mustered just nine league wins in the current campaign, Pochettino’s first in charge.
