Every word Mauricio Pochettino said on Chelsea mistake, Palmer move, Newcastle and Fernandez
Mauricio Pochettino was once again able to face the media following a win after goals from Cole Palmer and Nicolas Jackson against Sheffield United. The Blues came away with a 2-0 victory to bounce back from consecutive defeats against Everton and Manchester United.
Pochettino was losing his voice following the game, and would have been disappointed not to talk more about three points. However, he could not help but also throw things ahead to the Carabao Cup clash against Newcastle United on Tuesday evening.
Chelsea's 51-year-old head coach provided his views on how his side were able to turnaround a difficult first half performance and the mistake that was fixed at half time. There were also questions on Palmer's impact and why Enzo Fernandez was left out of the starting lineup on this occasion.

How do you feel after the game? Relieved or happy?
Relief, no. I am happy because the players deserve the victory and they work really well during the week. They react.

At the same time we need realise the things we need to change if we want to improve.
