Mauricio Pochettino delights Chelsea fans with Blues claim

New Chelsea head coach Mauricio Pochettino has delighted Blue fans with a bold claim about the west London outfit. Meanwhile fresh signing Nicolas Jackson’s rise is detailed.

If Chelsea fans were already excited to see the arrival of Pochettino at Cobham Training Ground, they are really stirred now. That is due to a comment made by the former Southampton and Tottenham Hotspur manager during his first interview as CFC boss. Todd Boehly and Behdad Eghbali hailed the 51-year-old’s ‘outstanding track record‘ upon appointment, and the man from Argentina has now revealed why joining the team was a simple choice.

‘Poch’ essentially proclaimed the Blues the greatest Premier League side over the previous 10 to 15 years. In a further promising statement from the onetime Paris Saint-Germain gaffer, he vowed to restore the west Londoners to their usual winning selves. The decision to move was easy for him to make, he says, as Chelsea are ‘one of the greatest clubs in the world.’

Chelsea signing Nicolas Jackson’s rise detailed

In The Guardian piece ‘Street football to Premier League: Nicolas Jackson’s road to Chelsea’, the latest addition’s way to Stamford Bridge is spoken of. It begins by outlining how Jackson’s approximate £21.4million switch from Villarreal to Bournemouth had failed.

Coach of the Spanish team, Quique Setién, said that they’d help the athlete cope, improve and that he’d be worth double come the summer. That was a fairly astute prediction from Setién because the star later transferred to CFC for a £35m fee. Jackson became the most prolific goalscorer in Europe’s preeminent five divisions from April onwards; He actually managed to outscore Chels’ as a whole during that stint.

A rise at Villarreal is then talked through, combining family and life stories not to mention the pandemic period. Jackson’s mentality and playing style are also covered. The article is well worth a read for Blues fans.
