Chelsea\u2019s owners remain firmly behind manager Mauricio Pochettino despite the Blues\u2019 ongoing struggles on the pitch,\u00a0<\/strong>90min<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0understands.<\/strong><\/p>\n Sunday\u2019s 2-0 defeat to Everton saw Chelsea drop to 12th in the Premier League, the same position the team finished under the guidance of interim boss Frank Lampard last year.<\/p>\n The arrival of Pochettino, coupled with further spending on the likes of Moises Caicedo, Romeo Lavia and Cole Palmer, was supposed to see\u00a0Chelsea\u00a0soar towards the top of the table this season but a run of just two wins from eight Premier League games has added to the immense pressure on Pochettino\u2019s shoulders.<\/p>\n While some fans have called for Pochettino to depart,\u00a090min<\/em>\u00a0understands those responsible for making such a decision remain firmly behind the Argentine.<\/p>\n Chelsea\u2019s owners are sympathetic to the current situation at Stamford Bridge and understand that Pochettino needs time to make an impact on a squad which has been ravaged by both injuries and immense transfer dealings.<\/p>\n Behind the scenes, it is understood that Pochettino was not happy with the make-up of Chelsea\u2019s squad when the summer transfer window closed. As\u00a090min<\/em>\u00a0has previously reported,\u00a0a new goalkeeper\u00a0is on Pochettino\u2019s wish list, as is a move for a pure striker \u2013 a demand which the Chelsea boss made public after Sunday\u2019s defeat.<\/p>\n Co-owner Todd Boehly is prepared to give Pochettino time \/ Alex Pantling\/GettyImages<\/p>\n \u201cIf we are not able to score today with all the chances we had\u2026 we have to score if we want to win the game,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n \u201cAfter the first half of the season, we need to check. That is the reality. If we are not receiving enough, maybe we need to do some movement. That is the thing to analyse with the sporting directors, to see if we can change this dynamic and improve in the second half of the season.<\/p>\n \u201cWe need to be more aggressive. Then it\u2019s a massive assessment and when the transfer window opens, we will see what we can do.\u201d<\/p>\n Chelsea are prepared to resolve both issues in the summer transfer window but would act in January if the right deal arises. Officials are\u00a0ready to try and convince Napoli to part ways with Victor Osimhen\u00a0this winter but appreciate a deal is far more likely at the end of the season.<\/p>\n
