Despite having a year left on his contract, Pochettino was dismissed on Tuesday after Chelsea finished sixth in the Premier League.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although Pochettino guided the Blues to European qualification with a strong end to the campaign, it was a challenging year for the former Tottenham and Paris Saint-Germain manager. His team faced boos from fans after several poor performances, lost the League Cup final to a young Liverpool side, and were defeated in the FA Cup semi-final by <a href=\"https:\/\/news.24hscore.com\/football\/club\/manchester-city\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Manchester City<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/news.24hscore.com\/football\/club\/chelsea\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Chelsea <\/a>chairman Todd Boehly, who has spent over \u00a31 billion on new signings during his two-year tenure, expected better results. Pochettino is the third manager to be sacked by Boehly&#8217;s consortium, following Thomas Tuchel and Graham Potter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Get real-time <a href=\"https:\/\/24hscore.net\/football\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">football scores<\/a> here!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"it\" dir=\"ltr\">Club statement: Mauricio Pochettino<\/p>&mdash; Chelsea FC (@ChelseaFC) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ChelseaFC\/status\/1792983320931791353?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">May 21, 2024<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, Pochettino was well-liked by Chelsea&#8217;s players, who valued his public support during tough times. Many took to social media to praise him after his dismissal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chelsea captain Reece James, who had an injury-riddled season, posted on Instagram: &#8220;Thank you for everything boss. We had an amazing relationship from the moment we met. I never played as much as I would have hoped under you, which I am sorry for but also something I couldn&#8217;t control. You believed in me and gave me a huge responsibility when many others doubted me.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chelsea&#8217;s top scorer Cole Palmer, who scored 22 league goals and provided 11 assists after joining from Manchester City in September, wrote on Instagram: &#8220;Gaffer, thank you for everything you have done for me &amp; making my dreams come true. All the best.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Senegal striker Nicolas Jackson, who struggled through a disappointing first season, posted: &#8220;Good luck coach, wish we could stay more together but may God continue to bless you and your family. Thanks for your support and advice and making me a better player and person. Wish you all the best.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Midfielder Moises Caicedo, who faced challenges living up to his \u00a3115 million price tag, posted: &#8220;Mister! It was a pleasure. I wish you all the best for the future! What a person and what a coach.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Young winger Noni Madueke, who emerged towards the end of the season, wrote: &#8220;You taught me invaluable lessons both on and off the pitch. I will always be grateful. I wish you the best in the next chapter of your life.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pochettino recently remarked that it wouldn&#8217;t be the end of the world if he were sacked. His departure now leaves Chelsea in search of yet another manager in the turbulent Boehly era.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Chelsea, who haven&#8217;t won a domestic trophy since the 2018 FA Cup, have been linked with several potential candidates, including Ipswich boss Kieran McKenna, Stuttgart manager Sebastian Hoeness, Girona chief Michel, Burnley&#8217;s Vincent Kompany, and former Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chelsea&#8217;s players expressed their appreciation for Mauricio Pochettino on Wednesday following his abrupt sacking after just one season in charge.
