Jamie O’Hara has now claimed that one figure at Chelsea has left him really disappointed this season.
He told Sky Sports News that he was expecting a lot more from Mauricio Pochettino during his time in charge of the club so far.
Pochettino led a side last night that were way off it in comparison to their opponents. They were defeated 4-1 by Liverpool at Anfield.
Only really the performances from Djordje Petrovic and Christopher Nkunku left anything to shout about for a side who will certainly have taken a confidence knock ahead of the EFL Cup final later this month.
O’Hara was particularly disappointed at what he had seen, saying there was one figure in particular who had let him down.

He said: “It’s been an absolute disgrace this season Chelsea football club. 10th in the table. Give me John Terry, give me Frank Lampard, Michael Ballack, Michael Essien, what I’m watching now from this Chelsea team, it’s not the Chelsea I know. I know it’s a new era but this is not the team I was expecting from Pochettino.”
Talk of the manager being under pressure is not rare at Chelsea, and the same fate has not escaped the Argentine up to now.
However, the fact that the Blues do have a domestic trophy to fight for still this season with a one game shootout at Wembley will likely keep his place in the hotseat safe for now.
