Nicolas Jackson unhappy with Chelsea board over Pochettino exit

Nicolas Jackson has expressed his frustration with Chelsea’s hierarchy after Mauricio Pochettino’s departure.

Chelsea officially confirmed that Pochettino has left Stamford Bridge by mutual consent.

Despite guiding the team to a sixth-placed finish in the Premier League and reaching the Carabao Cup final (where they were beaten by Liverpool).

It appears that Pochettino’s tenure was not deemed satisfactory by Chelsea’s board. They have decided to terminate his contract after an end-of-season review.

Several Chelsea players, including Cole Palmer, Mykhailo Mudryk, and Noni Madueke, have already expressed their gratitude towards Pochettino following the news of his exit.

Nicolas Jackson also posted a message of thanks to Pochettino but took the opportunity to criticize Chelsea’s hierarchy.

In an Instagram story, Jackson shared a picture of himself with Pochettino, accompanied by two facepalm emojis. Clearly, emotions are running high among fans and players alike as they react to this managerial change at Chelsea.

Jackson added another photo of himself with Pochettino with the words: ‘Love you coach, wish we could stay together more.

‘But may God continue to bless you and your family. Thanks for the advice and support. ‘You’re a true lion and fighter, wish you all the best.’

In an interview last week, Palmer also made it clear that the Chelsea squad were behind Pochettino.

‘Chelsea are a big club, everyone wants to finish higher than sixth but you have to look at where we were at the start of the season, throughout the season, we’ve been 13th, 12th. Last season obviously was the same.

‘So to get back into Europe is a step in the right direction.

‘Big credit to the manager because all the players love the manager and they want to fight for him. We’re just gelling now and everyone can see that.’
