The four goals and the win will be very important to Mauricio Pochettino’s future at Stamford Bridge as winning the FA Cup would seem to be the Argentinian’s only saving grace. The Blues’ current Premier League position of eleventh has cast doubt on the future of the former Tottenham Hotspur manager.

After the international break, Pochettino’s squad will face Burnley on March 30. Pochettino has plenty of time to assess the Leicester game and see where he went wrong.

After Chelsea’s FA Cup victory over Leicester City, Mauricio Pochettino addressed the controversy surrounding Cole Palmer’s decision to let Raheem Sterling take the penalty.

Marc Cucurella gave Chelsea the lead early at Stamford Bridge, and they had a penalty opportunity to extend it.

Having briefly exchanged passes with Sterling, Palmer threw the ball on to the England striker. Palmer has scored all five of his penalty goals since joining Chelsea from Manchester City last summer.

Unfortunately for Sterling, Leicester’s goalkeeper Jakub Stolarczyk saved his shot.

“I tҺink yоu knоw very well tҺаt is Cоle,” PоcҺettinо sаiԀ in respоnse tо а questiоn оver Pаlmer’s cҺоice tо аllоw Sterling tо tаke tҺe penаlty kick fоllоwing CҺelseа’s victоry.

I believe Cole and Raheem have a great relationship; the ball went from Cole to Raheem while they were both players for Manchester City.You might have seen the TV when Raheem requested for the ball so he could take the penalty; I believe Cole handed it to him.

But I don’t mind if Cole or Raheem miss; in my opinion, it’s their choice.

Without a doubt, I will unwaveringly back my players’ decisions while they’re playing.

“That is about to mature and grow; I’m always pleased when we make a decision.”In tҺe secоnԀ Һаlf, Sterling Ԁrew аnоtҺer bоо frоm CҺelseа fаns wҺen Һe tооk аnоtҺer clоse-rаnge free kick аfter pulling rаnk оn Pаlmer. Unfоrtunаtely, Һis errаnt effоrt flew ҺigҺ intо tҺe stаnԀ beҺinԀ tҺe gоаl.

We must rally around him because he is a phenomenal player. Sterling has been a Premier League player for over a decade, according to Pochettino, who spoke to BBC Sport after the game about him.

Without a doubt, I believe the donation was worthwhile. As a team, we must support one another, even though he was a bit unlucky on a few occasions when he should have scored.

People have the right to express themselves emotionally. We do our best to encourage our supporters not to be critical. They genuinely care about our team and its members, yet we’re in the middle of a project.

To truly believe and to have support is essential. Our goal is to construct something. The team is currently being assembled. When it comes to managing, I am an expert.

The goal of the supporters is to see their team win, and we accomplished just that. The goal of the fans is to play at Wembley, and we have accomplished that. They must have faith in my managerial abilities to steer the team in the direction I believe is best.

“Just as much as they should respect my decision, we should respect their opinion.”
