Pochettino packs his trunk and says goodbye to the Chelsea circus

When a manager and a football club part company by “mutual consent”, it invariably transpires that the consent in question was far more mutual on the part of the club’s owners than that of the manager who is wandering around the training ground with a cardboard box full of, where senior suits and Mauricio Pochettino emerged from their end-of-season appraisal having arrived at the conclusion it would be best if the Argentinian left after just a year in the job.

While assorted pundits and commentators have been clutching their pearls and self-righteously condemning the hierarchy on Pochettino’s behalf, it is important to remember that the man himself almost certainly couldn’t give two hoots, and may well be delighted to have packed his trunk and said goodbye to this particular circus. The same cannot be said of his players, many of whom have stampeded to social media disgraces in order to make it clear.
