Chelsea have lost their last two Premier League matches against Liverpool, 4-1, and the most recent against Wolves.

The home defeat to Wolves escalated issues, with many, including Silva’s wife calling on Pochettino to step down.

The Argentine manager will hope to redeem himself in tonight’s FA Cup replay against a strong Aston Villa side, after his men failed to capitalize on their chances in the first leg at Stamford Bridge.
