How Mauricio Pochettino is looking to iron out Chelsea’s “scattergun” recruitment

There has been a lot said about Chelsea’s owners reign so far after a disastrous first season at least in terms of on the pitch.

Chelsea are set to have a poor league table position come the end of this season, and the owners have come under heavy criticism from pundits, former players, and even their own fans at times. Things have certainly not be the dream start that they would have loved.

Sources: Chelsea have big plans for current forward who they rate highly!

Mistakes have clearly been made, and there has been some teething problems in the ownership. Their recruitment strategy so far has often been referred to as a scattergun approach, with a lot of money spent but no clear visision.

Mauricio Pochettino coming in will be hoping to iron that out, and he has his own vision. According to Ben Jacobs, Pochettino wants to sign Premier League proven players this summer, describing it as significant because Chelsea’as approach has been scattergun.

Jacobs told GIVEMESPORT: “The other thing that Pochettino has emphasised is that Premier League proven quality is really important.

“I think that’s significant because if you look at Chelsea’s recruitment throughout the last two windows, it’s been a bit scattergun.

“We can expect that from the first summer because of the new ownership and Thomas Tuchel pushing for certain things.

“But then the January window, although there was a strategy, was very much youth based. They weren’t afraid to bring in players from all over the world.

“Malo Gusto came in from Lyon, Andre Santos the Brazilian, and Enzo Fernandez from Argentina. They signed Mudryk, who had played in the Champions League, but again had no Premier League experience.”
