Mauricio Pochettino: Chelsea Ready to Win Trophies This Season
Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino has told Football Focus that he knew the transfer window would be tough and that his players are ready to win trophies this season.
Mauricio Pochettino’s Transfer Window Preparations
Mauricio Pochettino has been preparing for the transfer window since taking over as manager of Chelsea in July. He knew that the window would be difficult, but he was confident that his players were ready to compete for trophies this season.
The Argentinian manager has been working hard to strengthen the squad and has already signed several new players, including Timo Werner, Hakim Ziyech, Ben Chilwell, Thiago Silva, and Kai Havertz.
Pochettino’s Plans for the Season
Pochettino is looking to build on the success of last season, when Chelsea finished fourth in the Premier League and reached the FA Cup final. He is confident that his team can challenge for silverware this season and is determined to make sure that they are ready for the challenge.
The manager has already outlined his plans for the season, which include focusing on developing a strong defensive unit and creating a team that is capable of playing attractive, attacking football. He is also looking to develop a team spirit and create a culture of hard work and dedication.
Chelsea’s Pre-Season Form
Chelsea have had a mixed pre-season, with some impressive performances against lower league opposition but also some disappointing results against top-level teams. However, Pochettino is confident that his team will be ready for the start of the season and is looking forward to the challenge ahead.
The Blues have already played two competitive matches this season, losing to Liverpool in the Community Shield and then beating Brighton in their opening Premier League game. They will be looking to build on these results and prove themselves as title contenders this season.
