Pochettino has announced VERY SAD News for Chelsea Defender Malo Gusto this evening after Thier match with Burnley this evening
Chelsea and Burnley played to a 2-2 draw on Saturday, but Malo Gusto had to leave the game because he thought he hurt his leg.
After being held back twice by Burnley at Stamford Bridge, it was another bad day for Chelsea.
Cole Palmer scored the first goal from the penalty spot right before halftime. Lorenz Assignon had been sent off for a foul in the box on Mykhailo Mudryk.
Josh Cullen shockingly tied the game just minutes after the break. Palmer then scored what looked like the game-winning goal late in the game, but Dara O’Shea scored in the 81st minute.
Burnley is almost certain to be relegated because they have only won four games this season. A home draw is a terrible result for the Blues, who are now 11th in the table.
In the 87th minute, Gusto limped off the game with what looked like a hamstring injury, making things even worse for Mauricio Pochettino. Alfie Gilchrist came on in his place.
One of Chelsea’s best players this season has been the right back, who has stepped up when captain Reece James has been hurt and has missed most of the season.
The Blues have had a lot of injury problems this season. Ten more players are currently in the treatment room, and Romeo Lavia and Wesley Fofana will be out for the rest of the season.
Pochettino has been criticised a lot by Chelsea fans, and this latest bad game and result will only make things worse.
The manager also said, “When we go forward, we create too many chances but don’t score all of them.”
“We didn’t have the skills, energy, hunger, or even the bare necessities to compete in the Premier League.” That is why I am so angry and let down. It’s more in your heart and head than in your legs.
