Hence, they were close to kicking City out of the Cup and, instead, received a ‘little hand’ from Arsenal: “We are capable of incredible performance and three days later prove, you know, to be at the extremes. Our standard level doesn’t stand up to bad days. When we have bad days, we are very bad. And on good days, we are capable of anything. “That’s another thing we need to be aware of and improve for the future.”
Pochettino, after Arsenal’s 5-0: “We are very bad”
‘Poche’, as incredible as it may seem, apologized to his players. And Chelsea, for the seventh time this seasonpresented an eleven with an average age of less than 24 years. Only Leeds, in 1999-00, did it on more occasions.
“I’m not going to blame the footballers.. We can’t blame the young guys who came here and suffered the circumstances surrounding the team. It is difficult to come here and fight against a team that is fighting to win the Premier. We cannot be unfair to them. Careful!”, warned the former Espanyol, Southampton, Tottenham and PSG player.
