Cesc Fabregas and Jimmy Floyd-Hasselbaink have both admitted they would be happy to see Mauricio Pochettino become Chelsea's next manager. The former Tottenham boss is entering crucial talks with the Blues hierarchy as the final details for his appointment could be completed in the coming weeks.
A permanent appointment is desperately needed at Stamford Bridge with Chelsea suffering their sixth consecutive loss on Tuesday evening with defeat to Arsenal. After just 34 minutes, the Blues found themselves losing 3-0 with the Gunners running riot against their neighbours.
As was evidenced by the London derby drubbing, if he is brought in, Pochettino has numerous issues to solve, likely starting in attack. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was handed a start by interim boss Frank Lampard, but was withdrawn at half time having touched the ball just seven times, with four of those coming from kick offs.
