Pochettino Acknowledges Need to Revive Stamford Bridge Atmosphere

Chelsea's head coach calls for team energy and commitment to motivate fans ahead of crucial Carabao Cup semi-final against Middlesbrough.

Chelsea's head coach, Mauricio Pochettino, acknowledges the need for his team to improve the atmosphere at Stamford Bridge, following criticism from former player Pat Nevin.
Despite an eight-match unbeaten home run, the atmosphere at the stadium has been described as 'flat', which Pochettino attributes to dissatisfaction from the previous 18 months.
Pochettino believes the team needs to show good energy and commitment to motivate the fans, especially in the upcoming Carabao Cup semi-final second leg against Middlesbrough.
Chelsea's travelling fans expressed dissatisfaction after the first-leg defeat to Middlesbrough, prompting Pochettino to acknowledge the need for players to show appreciation for their support.
Chelsea's only realistic hope of ending the season with silverware lies in the EFL Cup and the FA Cup, as they are not playing in Europe and are 17 points adrift of league leaders Liverpool.
