      Mauricio Pochettino set for very awkward return to Stamford Bridge less than two weeks after Chelsea exit

      by

      MAURICIO POCHETTINO will be back at Stamford Bridge just TWO WEEKS after leaving Chelsea.The Blues announced the Argentine’s shock departure on Tuesday evening.Mauricio Pochettino is due to boss a World XI at Stamford BridgeCredit: PAChelsea legend Frank Lampard will manage the England XI on June 9Credit: GettyAnd stunned fans were quick to notice one “awkward” detail.That’s with Pochettino, 52, set to manage the World XI in Soccer Aid next month… in familiar surroundings.He will even be taking on an England side bossed by Chelsea legend Frank Lampard in the charity game at the Bridge.It means two bosses with unceremonious exits from the club will clash in the annual charity match for Unicef on June 9.READ MORE FOOTBALL STORIESLampard’s fellow Chelsea legend Eden Hazard is in Pochettino’s squad.And supporters were dumbfounded by the Argentinian leaving so close to what should be a fun summer’s night at the Bridge.One fan posted: “I literally said surely we couldn’t sack him before that, it would be so awkward. Turns out we love awkward.”Other incredulous reactions included: “No way” … “lol”… “so awkward”… and “crazy world”.Most read in FootballWho could be the next Chelsea manager?

      HERE are the seven names in the running to replace Mauricio Pochettino after his shock exit from Chelsea.
      Roberto De Zerbi
      The Italian left Brighton at the end of the season after a year and a half in charge. He was linked with a host of top jobs earlier in the campaign but a difficult run of results saw him fall out of contention for the likes of Liverpool. De Zerbi’s attacking, front-foot style would be popular at Stamford Bridge.
      Kieran McKenna
      The former Manchester United assistant has led Ipswich to back-to-back promotions from League One to the Premier League. That has seen his stock shoot through the roof and he may be tempted to jump ship for a big job.
      Enzo Maresca
      Maresca was Pep Guardiola’s assistant at Manchester City and has worked wonders at Leicester, settling the ship to send the Foxes back to the Premier League at the first attempt. Appointing a Pep disciple has turned Arsenal into title contenders, so it could work for Chelsea too.
      Hansi Flick
      Flick was one of football’s most in-demand managers after winning the Champions League with Bayern Munich. But it all went wrong in his next role becoming the first manager ever to be sacked by Germany. Now he’s ready to return and could be a smart move for the Blues
      Sebastian Hoeness
      Chelsea fans may not have heard of him, but Hoeness is Germany’s next big thing. Hoeness has transformed Stuttgart from relegation candidates to the second best team in the Bundesliga, finishing above Bayern Munich. Only invincible Bayer Leverkusen got in the way of a miracle.
      Michel
      Michel Sanchez has worked wonders with little Girona in Spain. The minnows were right in the LaLiga title race at Christmas before watching Real Madrid shoot into the distance. But they ran illustrious Catalan neighbours Barcelona all the way for second and are guaranteed a spot on the Champions League. Reports in Spain say that has caught Chelsea’s attention.
      Jose Mourinho
      Still adored by fans at Stamford Bridge, who never warmed to former Spurs boss Pochettino, Mourinho would be a popular pick. Winner of three Premier League with the Blues across two topsy-turvy spells, could he be the man to take Chelsea back to the top?

      Alex Scott will be a TV host for Soccer AidCredit: The Mega AgencyIt was also labelled the “final dagger” by one Chelsea supporter.Lampard and ex-Real Madrid playmaker Hazard will make their Soccer Aid debut along with Ashes icon Stuart Broad, Gladiators’ Diamond, Bobby Brazier, Sam Thompson and Erin Doherty.Mauricio Pochettino LEAVES Chelsea despite promising end to season as Blues line up four potential new bossesReturning sports celebs include Usain Bolt, Harry Redknapp, Jesus Perez, Jill Scott, Karen Carney, Jermain Defoe, Mo Farah, David James, Joe Cole, Tommy Fury, Gary Cahill, David Seaman, Roberto Carlos and Jack Wilshere.Amongst other “names” taking part are Robbie Williams, Roman Kemp, Martin Compston, Lee Mack, Steven Bartlett, Paddy McGuinness, Alex Brooker, Tom Grennan and Maisie Adam. Dermot O’Leary and Alex Scott will host ITV’s coverage.O’Leary said: “We’re one big team at Soccer Aid for UNICEF, united by a goal to help protect play for children everywhere.Buying a ticket for this year’s star-studded match will help give children a chance to grow up happy and healthy.”Whoever you support, I know it’s going to an absolutely fantastic night at Stamford Bridge”.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.
