The problem is, I'm not sure Pochettino is capable of bringing Chelsea through to the Champions League next season. The team's performance is still poor and they always find it difficult to win game after game, so of course there are big doubts about Chelsea's chances of getting to the Champions League next season.
With Chelsea's current performance, I don't think they will even be able to end the season in the top 5. It will be difficult for them to qualify for Europa. Chelsea's performance is really poor currently, and I don't know how Pochettino will be able to improve the club's performance. Chelsea are playing with small clubs currently, which they are supposed to make use of the opportunity to accumulate enough points before they start playing against strong teams, but they are already wasting the opportunity that they have. If I predict clubs that might end the season in top 5, Chelsea won't even be among them.
Tomorrow match against Manchester United and Crystal Palace will be a strong battle but Manchester United has more upper chances of wining the game, they actually have a good and capable players that should deliver but one thing about Manchester United sometimes is that when you feel they are inform that's when they will show you the opposite and start losing match but let's see how there match against palace will be tomorrow.
Let's see how the match goes. Since Manchester United won Crystal Palace in the Carabao Cup, which was their last match, let's see if Manchester United can get a similar win in their match against the same Crystal Palace in premier league. Manchester United shouldn't underestimate Crystal Palace because they won them in their last match. Premier League is different from the Carabao Cup, and most clubs don't take the Carabao Cup serious, so it's better Manchester United put more effort into their match tomorrow or they might find it difficult to win the match.
