“You’ll be sack” Chelsea owners Todd Boehly send two strong messages to Mauricio Pochettino before the game against Tottenham Hotspur
Todd Boehly told to make Mauricio Pochettino sack decision as Aston Villa force Chelsea dilemma
The travelling Aston Villa fans were in full voice at Stamford Bridge as they watched their side defeat Chelsea one-nil
Aston Villa supporters told Mauricio Pochettino that he will be ‘sacked in the morning’ during the Villans’ clash against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday afternoon. Ollie Watkins guided Unai Emery’s side to a 1-0 win over the Blues, scoring his first Premier League goal of the season.

“I am so happy with how the team feel after Bournemouth and Nottingham Forest, they really care about the club, they really care to win the games, they really care to perform better and I think this week was good to work hard and create good moments every day to translate into competition.”
Then, Pochettino was asked how Boehly feels about Chelsea’s poor results and whether he’s spoken to the American billionaire. The former Tottenham boss said: “We talk but also with sporting director we are in contact, they are supporting the project. They are not disappointed because I think we share some ideas about the performances.”
While Boehly may be supportive of the project Pochettino is conducting at Stamford Bridge, the travelling Villa fans certainly made their feelings known about the Chelsea boss and warned him that he will be sacked. The Blues co-owner now has a decision to make – stick or twist…
