Why Forest comeback win could be crucial for Poch survival at Chelsea — explained

The future of Mauricio Pochettino is up in the air and will be decided at a board meeting at the end of the season.

The Daily Mail report that the pendulum appears to have swung towards the Argentine staying at the club beyond the season. The 3-2 turnaround victory against Nottingham Forest has strengthened the manager's position.

Pochettino proved that he can impact the game with his decisions. He changed the tactics after the break and introduced players who proved to be crucial in getting a result. Substitutes Raheem Sterling and Reece James claimed a goal and an assist, respectively.

Chelsea are currently seventh in the table, following a late charge for European qualification. They are level on points with Newcastle, who are sixth.

The sixth-finished team will go to the Europa League while the seventh will qualify for the Conference League. However, if Man United win the FA Cup, the sixth-placed team will compete in the Conference League next term while the seventh will not play in Europe at all.
