Some players were shocked to discover the news through social media.

And they have been left “devastated” as a result.

Jackson, who joined Chelsea in a £32million transfer from Villarreal last summer, shared his discontent on social media following the announcement.

He first posted a picture of himself and Poch captioned with two emojis of a man putting his face in his hands.

“But may God continue to bless you and your family. Thanks for the advices and support, you’re a true lion and a fighter, wish you all the best (heart emoji).”

Chelsea are beyond a laughing stock

By Andy Dillon

CHELSEA’S longest serving manager under the club’s new owners has left by mutual consent.

The fact that Mauricio Pochettino lasted only 325 days underlines what a basket case of a club it has become.

You might expect a manager to lose his job after five games WITHOUT a win but only Chelsea could lose theirs after five wins on the spin.

When the supporters wrote an open letter to chairman Todd Boehly and his sidekick Behdad Eghbali in March, they expressed fears that their beloved Chelsea was becoming a ‘laughing stock on and off the pitch’.

It is way beyond that now with the departure of the manager who finally looked to be getting a tune out of a squad branded ‘£1billion bottle jobs’ just over two months ago as they crashed to defeat against Liverpool’s youth team in the Carabao Cup Final.

Read Andy Dillon’s full take on the sacking of Pochettino and what it means here.

“I wish you all the best for the future! What a person and what a coach (blue heart emoji).”

The former Tottenham and Paris Saint-Germain boss left Chelsea following an end-of-season review meeting.

Sporting directors Paul Winstanley and Laurence Stewart were there, along with co-owner Behdad Eghbali.

The reason for his departure has been put down to issues “relating to the dynamics of working within a club structure”.

Boehly’s record would make even Abramovich blush… we’re back to square one

HERE we go again.

Just when some positivity was building around the place and an optimistic eye was being cast to the future, Clearlake Capital go hurtling full pelt back to the drawing board, write SunSport’s Tom Sheen.

Mauricio Pochettino leaving will make it six different managers in less than two years when next season rolls around, a record that would make Roman Abramovich blush.

But while the oligarch was keeping Chelsea’s HR department busy by regularly handing out P45s, he was also regularly delivering world class players in the hope of delivering instant silverware.

There was no ‘Vision 2030’, talk of players as financial assets or ridiculous eight-year contracts that potentially hamstring the club.

Hiring and firing worked under the previous regime because Chelsea had a spine of world class talent that they were always looking to improve upon – not a group of players who look light years away from the top teams in the land.

One thing is for sure, though. If Clearlake carry on down this road they’ll need a rebrand to Vision 2060.
