Chelsea Star has been hit by another devastating injury blow and will be out for Months following yesterday Match
Another tragic injury to a key player for Chelsea. After acknowledging that one of his Chelsea players might be aggravating his injury problems, Mauricio Pochettino stated that he might be one of the sport’s unluckiest managers right now.
Even though Chelsea defeated Brighton and Hove Albion in their Carabao Cup match, the loss of another key first-team player isn’t helping the Blues’ cause.
Four London derbies and a match against Man City are among the six Premier League games they have left, so Pochettino really needs all of his top players to be healthy and on point.
Ben Chilwell’s condition is unknown at this time, but the manager was concerned about him immediately following Brighton’s victory.
He was cited as telling reporters, “Yes, we need to assess tomorrow, but I think it’s [his] hamstring,” via Football365.
Pochettino need not be concerned as long as Todd Boehly realizes and comprehends that there are other factors contributing to Chelsea’s current dismal run, one of which is their injury crisis.
The only problem would arise if the American started expecting a rapid reversal without considering the mitigating factors.
Not to be overlooked is the fact that Chelsea under Graham Potter were performing admirably at the time his services were terminated.
If the owner treats the Argentinian with the respect he deserves, only time will tell.
