EPL: Pochettino identifies two areas Chelsea need to improve after beating Tottenham

Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino has identified two areas his team needs to improve after beating Tottenham Hotspur in an away Premier League clash on Monday night.

Pochettino watched as Chelsea beat his former club Tottenham 4-1 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

A hat-trick from Nicolas Jackson and a goal from Cole Palmer gave Pochettino’s side all three points.

Speaking at his post-match press conference, Pochettino said Chelsea need to control the game better and also be more relaxed in the way they play against opponents going forward.

“Of course, we need to control ourselves better. We are building our confidence and need to be more relaxed in the way that we play,” Pochettino said.

He added, “Overall, the performance was good because we arrived at a different moment and Tottenham was top of the table and to play against the leader, this performance showed we deserved to win and nothing to say more than that.”
