Florent Malouda has explained why Todd Boehly and give Mauricio Pochettino time to work his magic at Chelsea. The former Tottenham boss is expected to take the helm at Stamford Bridge this summer and, while the American billionaire will be keen to see an immediate improvement, the Blues have been encouraged to remain patient.
football.london understands that Pochettino has agreed a deal to become Blues manager at the end of the season. After weeks of positive talks, the two parties finally reached an agreement last week – just hours after the west Londoners' draw with Nottingham Forest.
The 51-year-old is expected to be in London this week to sign a three-year deal. Pochettino will be hoping to implement his exciting ideas as quickly as possible to get the supporters on side, though his fantastic work at Spurs didn't happen over night.
