Former Premier League manager Sam Allardyce has offered himself to replace Mauricio Pochettino at Chelsea.

Pochettino has come under heavy scrutiny at Stamford Bridge due to the Blues' underwhelming results and a lack of consistency.

Previously touted as the perfect man to restore Chelsea's lost glory, the Argentine has struggled to steady the ship at the west London club.

GiveMeSport reports that doubts are arising over whether Pochettino will keep his job following the struggles.

The development came just days after Chelsea lost the Carabao Cup final against rivals Liverpool at Wembley Stadium.

Allardyce ready for Chelsea job

Allardyce has now hinted that he would be open to taking charge at Chelsea.

A Chelsea fan demanded the legendary tactician replace Pochettino during a radio phone-in.

When asked if he would take the role, the former England boss said:

“Oh yes, I’d fly back from Dubai tomorrow for that – get me there!,” he joked to talkSPORT Breakfast.

He was further probed on what he would do once he takes charge, he added:

“It’s the worst defending I’ve seen in the Premier League for a long, long time."

Allardyce's first foray into the Premier League came with Bolton Wanderers, the club where he spent a significant part of his playing career.
