Pochettino looking to build Chelsea team with ‘capacity to win titles’
Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino, December 30, 2023

MAURICIO POCHETTINO is looking to “build a team that can match the mentality” of Chelsea after his side reached the League Cup final with a 6-1 semi-final second-leg victory over Middlesbrough.

Jonny Howson’s own goal settled the Blues’ early nerves as further strikes from Enzo Fernandez, Axel Disasi, Noni Madueke and a Cole Palmer brace booked their place at Wembley on February 25 against either Liverpool or Fulham.

Boss Pochettino said: “The most important thing is keeping the focus, seeing reality in the way we need to see the reality and see the difference between what is Chelsea and what is the team we are building.
