First-team players at Chelsea felt that Mauricio Pochettino’s training sessions were too short, and the former Blues manager was reportedly chastised for selecting a player for a Premier League match who had never played in that position before.

The Chelsea club shockingly announced on Tuesday that the Argentinean has resigned as manager, saying that all parties had “mutually agreed” to end their association.

In addition, he has been connected to take over as manager of England after Gareth Southgate and maybe replace Erik ten Hag at Manchester United.Players who worked under Pochettino were shocked by his departure from Stamford Bridge, but it has now been revealed that some of them were unimpressed with his teaching sessions, according to The Athletic.

One prominent issue arose when Pochettino began an unidentified star for a Premier League match in a role that he had never practiced in or played before, and the star wasn’t informed until hours before kickoff.Pochettino, meantime, didn’t believe that Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo could play both creative and defensive positions by themselves, so he used them as a midfield combination.

In private, Pochettino wasn’t sure that Fernandez, who signed a £107 million contract in January 2023, had what it took to be a box-to-box midfield player in the Premier League.Concerns were also raised about Caicedo’s ability to maintain positional discipline and develop into a stand-alone defensive midfielder who would guard Chelsea’s defense.

Pochettino believed that the two’s unconventional collaboration was unable to compete with other elite midfields in the English premier league.Practices were also viewed as restricted by several members of Chelsea’s dressing room due to issues at the Cobham training field. They felt that the instructions they were given lacked specific results.

Prior to the 52-year-old’s contract being terminated, an internal review was conducted, headed by sporting directors Laurence Stewart and Paul Winstanley and co-controlling owner Behdad Eghbali.

Chelsea finally failed tо secure the Champiоns League fооtball that the оwners had yearned fоr in exchange fоr their billiоn-pоund investment, even thоugh they were able tо cоnfirm a sixth-place Premier League finish that will get them intо Eurоpe the fоllоwing seasоn.

Under the new administration, the Blues are currently looking for their fourth full-time manager after Graham Potter and Thomas Tuchel left before Pochettino took over.
