Chelsea head coach Mauricio Pochettino expressed his disappointment with the “impossible behavior” displayed by his players during their 6-0 victory over Everton at Stamford Bridge. Despite the resounding win, an incident surrounding the fourth goal caused controversy and marred an otherwise perfect evening for Chelsea.
The Penalty Argument
Cole Palmer, who became the joint-leading scorer in the Premier League this season, scored four goals to help Chelsea crush Everton. However, it was the lead-up to Palmer’s fourth goal, a penalty, that caused the controversy. Noni Madueke and Nicolas Jackson both attempted to claim the penalty, leading to pushing and shoving between the players. Thiago Silva and Conor Gallagher had to intervene to diffuse the situation.
Pochettino’s Disapproval
After the match, Pochettino expressed his frustration with the behavior of Madueke and Jackson, stating that he had made it clear that Palmer was the designated penalty taker. He deemed their actions unacceptable and emphasized that such behavior would not be tolerated in the future. Pochettino conveyed his disappointment to the fans and stressed the importance of respecting the team’s designated roles.
Palmer himself acknowledged the argument between the players, admitting that it may have been “over the top.” He highlighted the players’ desire to take responsibility but affirmed that he is the designated penalty taker.
Despite the incident, Chelsea’s victory provided them with a significant boost in their bid to qualify for European competitions, showing their potential as a formidable team under Pochettino’s leadership.
