The investors and analysts who run and own Chelsea will be crunching the numbers with greater intensity than usual over the coming days and weeks. Chelsea are concerned sacking Mauricio Pochettino may mean they breach spending rules The club's financial situation is a major factor for co-owners Behdad Eghbali and Todd Boehly Your browser does not support iframes. Chelsea's previous owner Roman Abramovich was largely governed by instinct The club's financial situation is a major factor as Boehly considers making a managerial change Another recurring issue at Chelsea has been a lack on-field leadership and a seeming absence of strong characters in the dressing room, a product of the owners' apparent obsession with signing young players on the basis of their potential re-sale and accounting value. Paul Winstanley and Laurence Stewart have focused recruitment on young stars Chelsea produced another poor display against Wolves and are now 11th in the Premier League While he remains popular with players and staff there is a feeling at Stamford Bridge that despite the difficulties Pochettino should have done better this season, as he has been granted advantages denied to his predecessors, Thomas Tuchel, Potter and Frank Lampard. In a season interrupted by the Qatar World Cup Potter's first Premier League game as manager started a manic six-week run of 13 straight matches without a single free mid-week, leaving little time to conduct meaningful training sessions.
