Report: What Mauricio Pochettino actually thinks about his Chelsea players when they face weaker opposition
Reports have now shared what Mauricio Pochettino believes about his Chelsea players in certain games.
According to the Evening Standard, the Argentine has an opinion on what happens when his side take on weaker opposition.
Pochettino is now under pressure in his role as Chelsea manager, with results and consistency not picking up at all since his arrival.
Pochettino under pressure
The latest example of this was not being able to follow up the thrilling victory against Manchester United when they faced Sheffield United at the weekend.
The Blues conceded in added time to drop two points, leaving any chance at qualifying for European football up in the air.
It has been the story of the season at Stamford Bridge so far, with them unable to make any game look straightforward.
Pochettino believes Chelsea have a mentality problem
It looks as if the manager believes this is more of a mentality problem, rather than their actual ability.
Many Chelsea fans could not bare to think about where they would be in the league this season without the brilliance of Cole Palmer.
In his first real season playing first team football, he currently sits on a combined 25 goals and assists in the Premier League.
This is a tally that has not been reached for Chelsea since Eden Hazard was at the club, with the Belgian known for putting the side on his back at times.
Finding results against teams in disarray is a conundrum they will look to be solving quickly, considering the fact that they will be taking on Everton in their next game.
The Toffees were recently handed another points deduction, putting them in deep trouble, as far as relegation from the Premier League is concerned.
The Blues have a score to settle too, with them falling to a 2-0 defeat to the same opponents when they met late last year.
