We create chances but did not score.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018It&#8217;s obvious at the moment, no [the team doesn\u2019t have enough goals]. That is obvious, and your analysis and some point, I think we agree.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Striker Jackson was in the firing line from a fan during a first-half break in play which sparked the incident between Pochettino and the supporter.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/28\/16\/77116769-0-image-a-13_1698507422342.jpg\" height=\"442\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Mauricio Pochettino has admitted his Chelsea side were not &#8216;nasty or &#8216;clinical&#8217; in front of goal<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/10\/28\/16\/77113705-0-image-a-14_1698507431620.jpg\" height=\"446\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>The Blues&#8217; upturn in form was ended after suffering a third successive home defeat to the Bees<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>Chelsea\u2019s head coach said: \u2018It was a moment we all felt frustrated. After 40 minutes of playing really well and creating chances we didn&#8217;t score.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018This moment was a little bit down, the energy of the situation. He [Jackson] arrived to me and we talked about the position on the pitch and find some solution and we gave direction to him.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018Because it was calm, one fan said &#8220;oh wake up&#8221; and started to abuse a little bit, I don&#8217;t say that abuse but it&#8217;s abusing.<\/p>\n<p>\u2018For Nico, he lost a little bit of focus, I said &#8220;come on, be focused here&#8221;.
