After the match, Chelsea Manager Mauricio Pochettino said that fans should trust the club, not him.

“I made the decision [to substitute Mudryk]. I am not here to do what people want. Also, I am not stupid. I saw Mudryk and he was tired. We thought he would not finish the game. We are professionals and we want to win.”
Pochettino said
