Mauricio Pochettino is currently facing intense pressure as the manager of Chelsea. According to Manchester United legend Rio Ferdinand, the team was completely demolished by Arsenal in their recent match, with a score of 5-0. Ferdinand described it as a clear case of "men against boys" as the young Chelsea players were no match for their more experienced rivals.
The match was a humiliating one for Pochettino's team, with Ben White scoring two goals and Leandro Trossard also finding the net for Arsenal. To add insult to injury, former Chelsea player Kai Havertz also scored twice for Arsenal. This defeat has led to doubts about Pochettino's future at the club, especially after their recent good form in the Premier League.
Ferdinand did not hold back in his criticism of Chelsea, stating that they were simply not good enough in the match. He noted that although the team had a young lineup, this does not always mean they will falter, as young players can often play with fearlessness. However, in this particular match, Chelsea were completely off their game and were no match for Arsenal. Ferdinand described it as a case of "men against boys" and emphasized that they were completely destroyed by their rivals.
The defeat has also affected Chelsea's position in the Premier League table, with the team now sitting in 9th place, only five points ahead of Bournemouth in 13th. Their next league game will be against Aston Villa, followed by a highly-anticipated match against their rivals, Tottenham Hotspur, at Stamford Bridge.
Looking ahead, it remains to be seen how Pochettino and his team will bounce back from this defeat. With pressure mounting, they will need to regroup and come back stronger in their upcoming matches.
