We go again with Cucurella
Pochettino’s intense solution for Chelsea’s yellow and red card wоes
Chelsea has received two red cards in their last two games and an incredible 47 yellow cards this season. Mauricio Pochettino has addressed the issue head-on with some quite drastic measures.
During the section of his press conference that was subject to embargo, Pochettino disclosed that he has been having his players review some of the warnings they have received this season in an effort to reduce this negаtive behavior.
“We were discussing Nicolas Jackson, who received a yellow card for complaining to the referee.” Despite the opponent’s foul, they were not given a yellow card. However, you gripe about “Why wasn’t that a yellow card?” “Oh, yellow card for you,” is what it says. This is how we get it. We must be resourceful and advance in this field. According to remarks gathered by the Daily Telegraph, Pochettino stated, “We cannot be foolish enough to repeat, repeat, repeat the same mistakes.”
All things considered, this seems like a good approach. We just need to accept the reality of the football authorities’ very legitimate demand that players not harass officials.
Although we would think that the players wouldn’t require this kind of in-depth instruction, they haven’t demonstrated much growth, which is understandable given Pochettino’s motivation for using these somewhat unconventional techniques. Hopefully, Conor Gallagher’s red outfit from last night will be the only one we see for a while.
