Yet amid rumours of Ten Hag struggling to handle United&#8217;s squad, Chelsea&#8217;s manager did not want to get involved ahead of their meeting at Old Trafford on Wednesday night.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;No, no, no,&#8217; Pochettino said as Chelsea travel to United. &#8216;I am only a coach that tries to do my best. We are no-one to give advice to my colleagues. It&#8217;s not my duty to talk about what&#8217;s going on in another place. I am very respectful. I need to be respectful about another club. I am not the person to talk about what is going on in other clubs.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Christopher Nkunku will be among 10 players unavailable for Chelsea on Wednesday, with Conor Gallagher suspended after his red card against Brighton.<\/p>\n<p>Asked if this was a good time to face United, Pochettino added: &#8216;It is an amazing place (Old Trafford). I wouldn&#8217;t say it is a good moment to go there. We&#8217;re going to face a team that&#8217;s going to be tough because they want to win. We need to go there and win.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/05\/14\/78597983-12827847-Chelsea_boss_Mauricio_Pochettino_said_he_had_no_advice_for_Erik_-m-40_1701785169463.jpg\" height=\"488\" width=\"306\"><br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/05\/14\/78597989-12827847-The_Dutchman_is_under_fire_after_a_rocky_season-a-41_1701785197949.jpg\" height=\"488\" width=\"306\"><\/p>\n<p>Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino said he had no advice for Erik ten Hag on how to fix the crisis at Man United<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/05\/14\/78597995-0-image-a-31_1701784915676.jpg\" height=\"464\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Man United are suffering this season after six Premier League defeats already &#8211; but Pochettino still expects a &#8216;tough&#8217; game at Old Trafford<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I am focusing on my club, my focus is here.

We faced when I was at Tottenham, the semi-final in the Champions League against Ajax. He is a fantastic coach, a great manager.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>This will be Pochettino&#8217;s first meeting with Ten Hag since that famous 3-2 win for Spurs when they sealed their spot in the 2019 Champions League final.<\/p>\n<p>Pochettino also refused to divulge when asked if he was glad he took over at Chelsea instead of United &#8211; having been in the running for the job before Erik ten Hag took over in 2022.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/05\/14\/78598099-0-image-a-34_1701785036792.jpg\" height=\"418\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Pochettino &#8211; who last faced Ten Hag in 2019 during a Champions League clash between Spurs and Ajax &#8211; refused to answer whether he was glad he didn&#8217;t take the United job last year<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I&#8217;m not going to talk [about that] You laugh but you try to make me talk too much, I don&#8217;t want to make a mistake.

We are dealing with many situations we need to improve also.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;We are building something here and 200% focused on evolving and developing the project we want together. That is my focus to try and deliver the job.&#8217;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Ten Hag, meanwhile, insisted he retained the backing of his players despite fears of a mutiny in the United camp.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Oh yes, I&#8217;m sure,&#8217; he said. &#8216;But you can see, for instance, the comeback against Brentford, the Burnley game, the Fulham game, so every time the team is there, showed great character.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Great determination, resilient, so yeah, we are together. And you can see you can&#8217;t play such great football what we did lately if there is no unity.&#8217;<\/p>\n<h3>IT&#8217;S ALL KICKING OFF!\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p><span>It&#8217;s All Kicking Off\u00a0is an exciting new podcast from Mail Sport that promises a different take on Premier League football, launching with a preview show today and every week this season.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>It is available on MailOnline, Mail+, YouTube , Apple Music and Spotify<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/i\/pix\/2017\/08\/02\/636x90_facebook_ad_sport.png\" width=\"636\" height=\"90\"><br \/>\nSource: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/football\/article-12827847\/Chelsea-boss-Mauricio-Pochettino-says-no-advice-Erik-ten-Hag-manage-Man-Uniteds-crisis-vows-respectful-insists-NOT-good-time-face-Red-Devils-despite-poor-form.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino says he has no advice for Erik ten Hag on how to manage Man United&#8217;s crisis and vows to be &#8216;respectful&#8217;&#8230;
