Pochettino has announced VERY SAD News for Chelsea Defender Malo Gusto this evening after Thier match with Burnley this evening

Malo Gusto hobbled off during Chelsea’s 2-2 draw with 10-man Burnley on Saturday due to what appeared to be a hamstring injury.

Chelsea’s day ended with disappointment as they were twice pushed back by the Clarets at Stamford Bridge.

Just before halftime, Cole Palmer scored the first goal from the penalty spot after Lorenz Assignon was sent off for fouling Mykhailo Mudryk in the box.

Shortly after the half, Josh Cullen unexpectedly tied the score. Palmer then seemed to have secured the victory late on, but Dara O’Shea’s goal in the 81st minute changed everything.

With just four wins this season, Burnley’s relegation is all but certain, therefore a home draw would be a very bad outcome for the Blues, who would now sit 11th in the standings.

To exacerbate things for Mauricio Pochettino, in the 87th minute, Gusto hobbled off the pitch with what appeared to be a hamstring injury. Alfie Gilchrist replaced him.

One of Chelsea’s greatest players this year has been the right-back, filling in for captain Reece James, who has been sidelined for almost the whole season due to injury.

The Blues have been hampered by injuries all season long; ten more players, including Romeo Lavia and Wesley Fofana, are out for the remainder of the campaign.

The recent underwhelming performance and outcome will only put further strain on Pochettino, who has been severely criticised by Chelsea supporters.

The manager said, “We are a team that creates too many chances when we go forward but doesn’t score all of the chances we create.”

“We didn’t demonstrate the necessary skills, stamina, appetite, or ability to compete in the Premier League.” I am quite angry and dissatisfied because of this. There’s more of it in these places [he indicates to the head and heart] than in your legs.
