Mauricio Pochettino reveals that the Chelsea project has been a huge disappointment for him
Chelsea Football Club has been working on a project since new owners took control from Roman Abramovich in 2022, following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The Chelsea project has been a total failure and a disappointment for Mauricio Pochettino up until now.
Chelsea’s manager, Mauricio Pochettino, has called for patience from fans, stating that the team is constantly seeking to win football matches and that it’s a frustrating feeling when they don’t.
Chelsea is now ninth in the Premier League rankings and has advanced to the FA Cup semi-finals, where they will meet Manchester City. However, fans of the club are optimistic that they can return to winning ways in the remaining games this season.
Boss’ frustration on the Chelsea project
Chelsea boss Pochettino realizes that the project is not at all going well and the club needs to come back to winning ways. According to a report by Fabrizio Romano, Mauricio said:
“It’s clear that we want to win. We came here because of the project, but we also know that Chelsea’s history is to win. When you don’t win, like at Chelsea, you feel really, really disappointed.”
It has not been the easiest of seasons for Chelsea. After significant summer spending, progress at Stamford Bridge has been slower than expected. If the Blues want to achieve positive results in the remaining games, they need to work on their issues quickly.
Despite navigating through a season riddled with inconsistency, Chelsea’s recent unbeaten streak in seven league games has offered a glimmer of hope. However, the current style of play is a cause for concern, as it lacks the potency needed to propel the team to greater heights.
For Pochettino, the task ahead is clear: to mold Chelsea into a formidable force capable of competing at the highest level. This journey is fraught with challenges and obstacles, but it’s also ripe with opportunity—a chance to redefine the club’s identity and reclaim its status among football’s elite.

Mauricio Pochettino grasps the gravity of the task at hand—a Chelsea project still in its formative stages, with much ground to cover. While the long-term vision remains crystal clear, the immediate focus must shift towards rectifying deficiencies and laying the groundwork for future triumphs.
