Heartbreaking Reece James News has been announced by Chelsea Manager Mauricio Pochettino this Afternoon In a press conference concerning why he was taken off the pitch yesterday
Mauricio Pochettino hopes that Reece James’ latest setback won’t be too bad. The captain of Chelsea hurt his hamstring again in their 2-0 loss to Everton.
Pochettino also said that the Blues need to add even more players in January, even though they spent more than £435 million on players over the summer. Chelsea is currently 12th in the Premier League and has only won one of their last five games. Pochettino thinks they need more players to score goals.
“We need to check after the first half of the season,” he said after the loss to Everton. “That’s the truth. If we’re not getting enough, we might need to move around. We’ll look at that with the athletic coaches to see if we can change things and do better in the second half of the season.
“We need to act stronger. After that, there will be a full evaluation, and we will see what we can do when the move window opens. It’s not clear to me whether I will ask for more or fewer people. To see if what people think matches what is really happening. We’re not seeing something.”
Pochettino’s problems got worse when goalkeeper Robert Sanchez and left back Marc Cucurella had to leave the game during it. “Robert Sanchez suffered a problem at Manchester United, it was an issue with his knee,” he said.
“He asked for a change because he felt something in the second half.” We need to pray that it’s not a big deal. For Marc Cucurella, who hurt his hip, it’s the same thing. Things like these should not be too big of a deal.
“These are the circumstances we have been dealing with since the start and it is too much for a young team that needs to have all the elements together if we want to build something solid.”
