Former Chelsea defender Frank Leboeuf urges Mauricio Pochettino to drop TWO players for Aston Villa clash who are 'far away from what we expect' - as he slams one big-money signing for his 'poor decision-making'

Former Chelsea star Frank Leboeuf has urged Mauricio Pochettino to drop two under-performing players.

The Blues completed a sensational turn around last night to reach the Carabao Cup final after they were beaten 1-0 by Middlesbrough in the previous leg.

Enzo Fernandez, Cole Palmer, Axel Disasi and Noni Madueke all got on the scoresheet to help Chelsea book their place in the League Cup final with a 6-1 win.

But, according to former French centre-back Leboeuf, Pochettino should drop two players for their upcoming FA Cup clash against Aston Villa.
