Fernández, Mudryk and Sterling all struggled ‘Now is a new start. They need to show their quality’
Mauricio Pochettino has backed Enzo Fernández, Mykhaylo Mudryk and Raheem Sterling to live up to their expensive price tags, but Chelsea’s new head coach warned his struggling stars that there will be no excuses to underperform next season.
Pochettino is keen to lift the mood at Stamford Bridge and he is aware the amount of change at Chelsea has made it difficult for new signings to settle. Fernández and Mudryk have been inconsistent since joining for huge fees in January, Sterling has not found his best form since his £47.5m move from Manchester City last summer and Marc Cucurella has also been disappointing since signing from Brighton for £62m.
