Mauricio Pochettino said he is proud to become the manager of Chelsea and is confident he can get them challenging for the Premier League title again despite a dismal campaign last season. ‘We have the quality, we will add more quality – the past is in the past, you need to move on,’ the Argentinian said at his official unveiling. ‘I’m a positive person, I see positive things.’
Pochettino was hired in May on a two-year contract to replace the interim coach Frank Lampard after a terrible season where the club finished 12th in the Premier League and sacked both Thomas Tuchel and Graham Potter. This is Pochettino’s first coaching role since leaving PSG in July last year and marks his return to the English top flight after an impressive five-year spell with Tottenham.
