Chelsea’s manager, Mauricio Pochettino, expressed the necessity of acquiring new players in the upcoming January transfer window. The statement came in the aftermath of Sunday’s 2-0 defeat against Everton, a setback that has left Chelsea in the 12th position on the league table.
Despite Chelsea having spent over £1 billion in the past three transfer windows, with many acquisitions predating Pochettino’s summer appointment, the team’s performance has not met expectations. Pochettino, looking to implement his own vision for Stamford Bridge, believes new additions are essential to spark a revival.
In an interview with MOTD, Pochettino lamented the lack of clinical finishing in front of goal during the Everton match, expressing deep disappointment at not securing the deserved points.

He remarked, “I think we were better, but we didn’t get what we wanted. This was a game to play and to win. It’s a problem we need to check. We need to analyze reality. We need to talk and try to improve in the next transfer market. We are dealing with this. After five months, or the first half of the season, we need to check, and that’s the reality. If we are not aggressive enough on the pitch, maybe we need to do something.”
