“He is the cause, we have been conceding many goals lately which is very bad, any more mistake from him will see him off the bench- Pochettino sends warning message to Chelsea Star who caused the second goal against Brighton

In response to Chelsea’s 3-2 triumph, Pochettino gave an explanation for why Chelsea has been giving up goals so often.
In response to Chelsea’s 3-2 triumph, Pochettino gave an explanation for why Chelsea has been giving up goals so often.

According to Mauricio Pochettino, giving up a lot of goals is occasionally a necessary component of playing offensive football.

The Argentine made the claim in response to Chelsea’s Sunday afternoon 3-2 Premier League victory over Brighton.

The visitors scored in the 92nd minute after Enzo Fernandez’s second-half penalty kick, but Facundo Buonanotte drew one back for the Blues after they had taken a 2-0 lead in the first half.

After just 14 games, Chelsea has already given up 22 goals in the league this season—two more than the team at the top of the table, Arsenal.

Nevertheless, Pochettino declared following the triumph at Stamford Bridge: “We needed the three points, and we got the three points. I am so tired, it was so emotional.” That’s football; that’s entertainment. People adore witnessing that. We’ve played in two excellent games in the past few games, which is why the Premier League is the greatest league in the world and why everyone wants to be here—it’s entertaining.

“Obviously, I want to score 10 goals and give up zero, but being an offensive team sometimes requires taking chances, which can result in goals being given up.” What matters is winning.
