Blues 14th in Premier League and failed to score in three games ‘Players, when they are young, need to learn and make mistakes’
Mauricio Pochettino told Chelsea to grow up after his young side continued their miserable start to the season by losing Malo Gusto to a red card and falling to a 1-0 defeat to Aston Villa at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea, who lie 14th in the table despite spending £1bn on signings since last year’s takeover by Todd Boehly and Clearlake Capital, looked short of nous as they lost at home for the second consecutive game. Gusto’s red card was avoidable and Pochettino was unhappy with Nicolas Jackson, who picked up his fifth booking of the season after trying to stop Villa from taking a free-kick.
