Football enthusiasts, especially those of Chelsea Football Club, are likely familiar with the ‘yelling’ Chelsea supporter. Once an internet sensation with his intense tirade against the club, he resurfaced after Chelsea’s defeat to Wolves on the weekend. In a viral video, the exasperated supporter criticizes the club and the manager for their poor performance against Wolves on Sunday.
Chelsea were convincingly defeated by their opponents at Stamford Bridge, resulting in the club’s embarrassing eleventh place in the standings. The ‘angry’ supporter did not hold back in criticizing the new signing, emphatically highlighting his lack of effort on the field.
In his furious rant, he stated,
Pochettino was his primary target, as he criticized the manager for centering the team around the injured player. Despite being included in the starting lineup, the Frenchman was unable to contribute to his team’s goal-scoring endeavors. Consequently, he was substituted by Carney Chukwuemeka in the 72nd minute.

His video has gained significant attention on social media, with many fans finding amusement in the struggles of the north London club. “Pochettino get out!” shouted the supporter as he concluded his furious tirade.
Mauricio Pochettino was appointed with high expectations to lead the club into a new era. However, after 7 months under his ‘regime’ at the club, there is not much to show for it. The club is closer to the relegation zone than to a top-four finish, and it is unlikely that they will qualify for any European competition next season. The club’s only hope of securing silverware rests on the EFL Cup final on the 25th of this month.
Reports suggest that the manager’s future is currently secure, considering the club’s history of sacking managers midway through the season. His two-year contract at the club means that an evaluation is on the horizon as he approaches the end of his first season in charge. However, Pochettino cannot be solely blamed, considering the club’s unfortunate encounter with injuries.

‘Main man’ Christopher Nkunku missed a significant portion of the first half of the season, while captain Reece James has also been sidelined with a ligament tear. If Pochettino is to retain his position, the club desperately needs a change in fortune. With upcoming matches against Manchester City, Tottenham Hotspur, and Liverpool in their next 5 games, his chances of achieving this remain uncertain.
