When the project started Pochettino at the command of Chelsea It was thought that the face of the ‘blue’ team could change overnight. The investment in recent times has been high and the pressure around the club has been high. However, building a winning team overnight requires a longer process than desired. All this in a world where patience is conspicuously absent. Facing this Tuesday against the match Arsenal (9 p.m.) ‘Poche’ defends Jackson and discusses Palmer, possible defeat.
Over the weeks and this Saturday’s defeat in the semi-finals of the FA CUP against Manchester City (1-0), it was confirmed that Chelsea will not win any title this season and their main goal is to enter the Europa League or the Conference . something really complicated. However, in the last month and a half, green shoots have been seen that give hope for the future.
Indeed, as has been the case in many other matches this season for Chelsea, the problem has been the lack of success in the final meters. They were better than City, they deserved to win by two or three goals, but they lost. Nico Jackson was selected after missing some clear scoring chances and many wondered if he was the number 9 a club chasing important titles needed. In 37 games in England he scored 12 goals and distributed 5 assists.
His words about Nico Jackson:
”Jackson is doing a great job and I will always support him. He does an incredible job for the team: running, scoring, giving assists. The first season was not easy. Nicolás is fighting for the club and next season he will be better, no doubt. “He is 22 years old.”
He also confirmed that Palmer is doubtful after not practicing in the morning, although he wanted to play down his possible absence. ”It’s not about individuals, but about teams. We can win or lose with him, even though he is an important piece”.
