Chelsea Update
! Chelsea will take on Manchester City in the Semi Finals of the FA Cup at Wembley.
Malo Gusto:
"Today we are very happy to win today and we will play again at Wembley. We are very happy. The only thing we changed in the second half was staying together and keep pushing. We just have to keep going, that's what we did after."
(BBCSport)
Chukwuemeka on Palmer:
"Cole said to me before the game, if I come on, he will assist me and fair play. His IQ is amazing, I knew as soon as I played it, he would find me. Fair play to him."
(BBCSport)
Cole Palmer:
"Try and help the team as much as possible, in tough moments, in good moments, that's what I'm there for."
(BBCSport)
Cole Palmer makes it 𝟐𝟓 𝐆/𝐀 in 34 games since he signed for Chelsea last summer.
14 goals
11 assists
Mauricio Pochettino on fans booing Raheem Sterling:
"We need to support him, he's an amazing player. He has more than 10 years experience in the Premier League. Of course I think the contribution was good. He was a little bit unlucky with some actions where he should have scored. But we are a team and we need to be there for everyone."
"Fans are entitled to show their emotion. For us we try to emphasise with our fans not to criticise. They want the best for our team and players. But we are in a project. We need support and to really believe. We are trying to build something."
"We are in a process to build the team. I know really well how to manage. What the fans want is to win the game and that we achieved. What the fans want is to go to Wembley and that we achieved. They need to trust me to manage in the way I think is the best way for the club."
"We need to respect their opinion as much as they need to respect my decision."
(BBCSport)
Pochettino on Chelsea fans:
"I hope one day Chelsea fans will support me the same way Newcastle [fans] do with Eddie Howe. I say that because I am here, I am the coach of Chelsea and I want to win as much as our fans!"
Axel Disasi is the only Chelsea player who’s been available for every game this season.

Pochettino:
“Sunday, we will see, we will see, Sunday it’s going to be tough but we will try our best to win”

Chelsea are ‘tempting’ Bayer Leverkusen striker Victor Boniface into a move this summer. The Blues are very much keeping an eye on the 23-year-old as they look for the striker that their squad desperately needs.
Chelsea and Tottenham are both ‘interested’ in Bayer Leverkusen defender Edmond Tapsoba but will face a hard time getting him from the German side.

Ben Chilwell:
"Domestically, I haven't won a trophy yet. I know these opportunities are difficult to come by, they don't come around often. Three times in a domestic cup final and three losses [since I joined the club], so I think it's time that we won one.

Pochettino on Jackson playing LW:
"The performance was really good. He played in that position against Luton. We try to help the players to find their best place. He needs space to run. He's fast and helping the team. He's doing fantastic..."
[SkySportsPL]
Mauricio Pochettino:
"Maybe one of the best performances [of the season vs Aston Villa]. The commitment and attitude was fantastic. We want to replicate. We need to perform, play well and dominate. We need to be ready."

Pochettino on Jackson as left winger:
"He is more comfortable. The pace, the speed, the capacity to arrive from the second line. He showed in the goal he scored how he arrives from the second line and can score.
I am so happy because the commitment is amazing also. After arriving from the Africa Cup of Nations, it is important for him to recover and feel the net. So happy, very pleased with his performance."
Chelsea have sent scouts to watch Nico Williams and included him in their list last summer.

Pochettino:
"Today, we live in an era where it is easy to give abuse to the public people. It's normal that the players are human, they're not robots. It's too easy to abuse today."
[BobbyVincentFL]
Mauricio Pochettino
"Other things worry me in life, but not football. Today I was more relaxed than ever because I knew the team would perform. You know when the players are with you and care for you. I could fee it after [the loss to] Wolves.
"We are talking about the youngest team in the Premier League, but with expectations so high. It's normal sometimes the players feel the pressure to be in the top four and challenge for big things. It's not easy to manage these things. Our belief is 200% but maybe around our environment there are some noises, but that's just football."
Chilwell:
“Everyone associated with Chelsea Football Club needed that result.”

: Chelsea will face Leeds United [h] in the fifth round on Wednesday 28 February.
Mauricio Pochettino:
“Football is my passion, not my job.”
“To be focused on playing football you need to be free in your mind. You can’t let it be affected because of the stock market in New York or Tokyo, or the weather in I don’t know where because the farms cannot grow the cereals. That is why I keep my hair like this. It’s because I do not suffer for things that I am not in charge of. I only suffer for sport, for football, to try to improve the players.”
“That is sport. You can win or lose. If there is no rain at my farm I cannot grow the crops. You kill the business of my family on the farm and they need money. That is stress. With that you can lose your hair. But I cannot lose my hair because the opponent was better than us.”
(JacobSteinberg)
Mauricio Pochettino:
“I didn’t finish 12th last year, Chelsea did."
It is a different squad to last year, many changes. If you want to compare to damage us, to compare things I think is impossible."
You can compare to try to damage, if you want to make a problem. But to analyse and put all the circumstances, I don’t think that before was better or was worse. It’s difficult to compare because we are in another project."
(MailSport)
Mauricio Pochettino:
"I told the players today in the meeting that I trust in you more than ever. I will support you more than ever. I am not a normal boss, I am the leader. I need to reflect in every action that I really trust."
