Former Chelsea winger Boudewijn Zenden has questioned Mauricio Pochettino's future at the club.
Despite the team's improvement in recent weeks, the Dutch star fears the current manager may not get the time he needs to deliver.
Zenden told Soccernews.nl as quoted by Football Transfers: “I really don't dare say that. I think he is a good coach, but putting together a completely new team takes time. The fact that he cannot play with a fixed eleven means that it takes longer to forge certain automatisms."
"I honestly doubt he will get that time. But let's not be too pessimistic and assume that things are moving in the right direction little by little, as the latest results show.”
Chelsea have accumulated just eleven points from eight games in the Premier League so far this season.
