According to reports, one manager may now be in line to accept the Chelsea position should it become available soon.

If the Blues decide to fire current manager Mauricio Pochettino, they may look to Massimiliano Allegri, per TuttoMercatoWeb.

Although Pochettino’s tenure at Stamford Bridge has generated a lot of positive discussion thus far, the team’s position in the league table does not indicate that anything has changed.

Those who have witnessed some of the team’s on-field displays, especially those against pacesetters Tottenham and Manchester City, will know that the previous season was just the tip of the iceberg in terms of what has been performed.

The frequent discussion about a possible management transition hasn’t gone away, either. Reports that Pochettino is under pressure continue to surface.

The Argentine had to sit out the last game due to his suspension for having received three yellow cards already this season.

What he witnessed would not have pleased him. Newcastle easily defeated the Blues, putting on their least remarkable performance of the year.

Talk over his future has been somewhat more heated, and it seems that the typical suspects are starting to show up as the people whose names will be in the hat.

Allegri has long been mentioned as a potential candidate for the Stamford Bridge position, but it seems that he may now have the chance because he has declined to commit to his current team, Juventus.

But the owners ought to honor their promise and give Pochettino more time to train his young team.
