Celebrate When You Score Against Man City – Pochettino Tells Sterling & Palmer

Chelsea boss, Mauricio Pochettino has told two of his players, Raheem Sterling and Cole Palmer that they need to celebrate if they score against Manchester City in the Premier League.

Chelsea will face Man City in a Premier League tie at Etihad on Saturday evening.

Both Palmer and Sterling were former players at Man City.

The duo had scored in the 4-4 draw against Pep Guardiola’s side earlier this season and as former City players their celebrations were muted.

However, Pochettino has now demanded that the English stars should celebrate this time around if they score against the host.

“If they celebrate, it is football. If they don’t celebrate and want to show respect, OK, but I think when you score a goal you need to celebrate,” Pochettino said in his pre-match press conference.

“You kill your former club and after you say ‘sorry’. When you play for different shirts and badges and clubs, you cannot stop your feelings.

“When you score, it is the most beautiful feeling in your body and you cannot go, ‘Argh, no, I don’t want to celebrate.’ You need to. You are now playing for another team.

“You showed respect when you were there and you gave everything to the club and the badge and the people. But now you defend another shirt, you need to celebrate because you are part of another history.”
