Pochettino hints at Chelsea job security as future plans take shape

Mauricio Pochettino says Chelsea will fulfil their plan of reaching European competition .

Mauricio Pochettino confirms he is already planning pre-season tour with the Chelsea board

Mauricio Pochettino has revealed he is already planning a pre-season tour with the Chelsea board ahead of the summer amid the uncertain future at the club. The Argentine manager has been under huge pressure and this could indicate that his job is secure atleast for another season.

Chelsea’s performances this season have been inconsistent, especially considering the significant investment made in new players last summer. Pochettino has faced criticism for the team’s form, but recent results suggest he may have found solutions.

The commanding 5-0 victory over West Ham United has certainly alleviated some pressure, and there’s a growing sense among fans that Pochettino could be the right manager to lead the club forward next season.

He is now planning a pre-season tour with the board, as the Blues have only three games left to play, which will determine their faith in a European spot. Speaking to the media ahead of the match vs Nottingham Forest, he said via Fabrizio Romano on X:

“We are already planning the pre-season tour together. We have had some meetings, and we are working with the responsibility to organise the next season and, of course, work in the future.”.

It’s essential that Pochettino has all the players integrated into his system before the start of the new campaign to ensure a cohesive and effective team. The board should prioritize signings that strengthen the squad in areas of need, focusing on quality and experience rather than solely on young players.

Preseason can often give a glimpse of a team’s potential, but the true test comes during the season itself. Pochettino’s challenge was to translate that potential into consistent performance on the field, which proved to be a process requiring time and adaptation.

It’s not uncommon for managers to experiment with different formations and tactics during preseason to find the right balance and system that maximizes the strengths of their players. Pochettino’s ability to identify the optimal setup for each player over time demonstrates his flexibility and commitment to finding the best approach for success.

Planning and strategic recruitment before the season kick-off will provide Pochettino with the necessary time to integrate new players into his system effectively. The board’s decisions in the transfer market will play a crucial role in shaping the team’s competitiveness and ability to challenge for trophies.

Todd Boehly recently expressed his admiration at Chelsea’s recent brand of football. It would appear Pochettino could yet be the man to turn our fortunes around.
