Axel Disasi rescues Chelsea but Mauricio Pochettino faces fan backlash
- Axel Disasi rescued Chelsea a point at Brentford but the damage was already done for Mauricio Pochettino.
- Some Chelsea supporters had been waiting for this moment. A gut-wrenching extra-time defeat at Wembley perhaps wasn't the right time. A last-gasp victory over Leeds on Wednesday night was a narrow escape but the verdict arrived after Yoane Wissa put the hosts in front on Saturday.
- The Chelsea fans chanted against co-owner Todd Boehly, sang Jose Mourinho's name and then turned on their manager with three damning words: "**** off Mauricio".
- Pochettino insists he is not worried about not being loved by the Chelsea fans and vowed he would keep fighting to improve their relationship. He knows the only way to do that is by winning.
- Their next two matches - at home to Newcastle on Monday Night Football and Leicester in the FA Cup - are now must-wins.
