In the recent 4-3 victory over Manchester United at Stamford Bridge, celebrations erupted as Cole Palmer secured the win with a late deflected goal.
Reflecting on the moment, Pochettino commented, “For the first time, I began to feel a connection with the fans. This project marks a departure from the past 20 years. I’ve always maintained my desire to cultivate an authentic relationship, rather than resorting to ostentatious displays like kissing the badge or engaging in theatrics on the touchline to please the fans.”
