Pochettino said about support from Chelsea's owners following the defeat in the Carabao final

Chelsea is enduring a particularly dismal season under the guidance of Mauricio Pochettino.

On February 25th, the aristocrats succumbed to Liverpool (0:1) in the final of the Carabao Cup. This defeat came despite the fact that the Merseysiders fielded a youthful lineup due to personnel issues.

Nevertheless, the manager himself once again affirmed the full backing from the leadership of the London club.

“The owners showed support to me after the final. Todd Boehly also sent me a nice message. After the final, during the night, I met Behdad and we were talking. We were sharing our opinions of the game and the opportunity we missed”. said Pochettino

Earlier reports suggested that the Chelsea hierarchy might relieve the Argentine of his duties if he fails to rectify the situation in the near future. Media outlets have even disclosed the name of Pochettino's potential successor.
