The Blues suffered their fifth loss of the Premier League campaign at St James&#8217; Park and saw their woes compounded when Reece James was sent off in the second half.<\/p>\n<p>The result marked another low point in Pochettino&#8217;s tenure at Chelsea, who have struggled to click under the guidance of the 51-year-old so far this season. Speaking ahead of today&#8217;s game against Brighton, he explained that his role in the post-mortem was similar to that of a doctor assessing a patient before giving a diagnosis and working on treatment.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;You arrive at the hospital because you don\u2019t feel well,&#8221; began Pochettino. &#8220;First of all, the doctor needs to do some analysis, see you and detect the problem. Then, they give the medicine or the solution.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith us, it is the same. We analyse to identify why and when you find out why it happened, you attack the problem. We already know that this is a young team that needs to be more mature and consistent and this up and down can happen. Now we need to realise why and then emphasise in different areas how to anticipate these types of situations.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p> <strong> JUST IN: <\/strong> <strong>Man Utd protestors vandalise Jim Ratcliffe display at Old Trafford with message<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Mauricio-Pochettino-Chelsea-5096261.jpg?r=1701528642544\"><\/p>\n<p>Delving deeper into the topic, Pochettino went on to compare the other side of his role to that of a university professor who needs to have faith in his students to set the record straight.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSometimes, you need to accept it is not a bad intention, that sometimes they didn\u2019t perform because they didn\u2019t understand our message,&#8221; he added. &#8220;That\u2019s for us to analyse, ourselves, and then put our ideas forward in a different way, and they need to learn that when on the pitch they must make decisions for themselves.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Support fearless journalism<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Read The Daily Express online, advert free<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Get super-fast page loading<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/logo\/logo-premium-subscription.png\"><\/p>\n<p> <strong> Don&#8217;t miss&#8230; <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Arsenal duo Kai Havertz and Declan Rice shared text messages before \u00a3165m moves[NEWS] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Man Utd&#8217;s eight homegrown signings since 2013 rated as &#8216;Jim Ratcliffe plans set'[LATEST] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Tennis chief hints at copying Premier League after talks of super tour[EXCLUSIVE] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Pochettino-Chelsea-training-5096266.jpg?r=1701528642670\"><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We need to put it all together and behave like a team.

The way they are is down to how we play.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea have won just four league games since Pochettino&#8217;s arrival in the summer, with a top-four challenge now seemingly out of reach for the Blues. It remains to be seen if the former Tottenham boss will be able to get his players firing on all cylinders by the end of the season, with his rebuilding job set to be a long-term process rather than focusing on short-term fixes.<\/p>\n<p><b>Want the latest Premier League news as we publish it on <i>Express Sport<\/i>?
