theguardian.com · 2 weeks ago

Only time will tell if the former Leverkusen manager will become yet another victim of the constant churn at Stamford BridgeIf Xabi Alonso arrived at Chelsea under any illusions about the expectations awaiting him, they were staring out from picture frames hung around Stamford Bridge’s Drake Suite. During his unveiling as Chelsea’s new manager, on either side of the room hung large, gleeful photos of José Mourinho and Antonio Conte holding Premier League trophies.Chelsea’s last two managers, Enzo Maresca and Liam Rosenior, were not afforded the Drake Suite treatment previously reserved for Mauricio Pochettino and Frank Lampard before them.

theguardian.com · 3 weeks ago

After a fun World Cup with a dismal end, the US enters the 2030 cycle with numerous avenues to rebuild the squadAfter an exciting home World Cup run ended with a disappointing thud in the last 16, there are massive questions lingering around the US men’s national team program. Mauricio Pochettino’s contract is up and US Soccer has made an extension offer, but both parties are taking some time. Matt Crocker’s abrupt exit as sporting director to take a similar job with Saudi Arabia before the World Cup begs more queries about the direction of the sport in this country. And while most of the 2026 squad’s core still projects to contend for 2030, four years is a long time.From now, each year offers a major tournament.

Spend any time around US men’s national team head coach Mauricio Pochettino and you’ll likely notice a medallion hanging from a bracelet on his right wrist. It’s a detail that feels appropriate for Pochettino, or any high-level manager, really, all of whom are inherently nomadic. At the time, he was very much perceived as a short-term hire, an experienced, big-name coach brought in to help build excitement and ensure a respectable performance ahead of a home World Cup.
