Chelsea boss Pochettino: If I was a fan I'd behave the same

Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino takes no issue with fans expressing their views.

The Argentine is aware that he is not popular among the club's supporters at present.

Pochettino was asked about chants calling for his sacking at recent Premier League games.

He stated: "It is nothing to complain, nothing to say, we understand the situation.

“We need to accept the criticism. We need to try to improve in the way we play and the result and try to change this feeling.

“Hope on Monday the fans will be right behind us and helping the team to win the game. But we need to accept that is football.

“Maybe if I was a fan, I would behave the same as them because it's Chelsea, we are not matching the expectation."
