Chelsea’s super tactician Mauricio Pochettino revealed his recipe for winning while speaking ahead of a match between Chelsea and Everton recently.

The coach who will be busy weaving strategies and executing what he hopes would please Chelsea fans has little time to rest as Christmas Day keeps approaching. Speaking to Chelsea’s news outlet, the coach used the match between Chelsea and Brighton to show the effect of his recipe for winning.

Chelsea battled Brighton with ten men without backing down a bit, and the coach believed that the same style should be used against Everton who had lost points due to being found guilty of breaking a rule. He expected Everton to be bent on amassing as much points as possible.

Here is what he said: ‘It is difficult to recreate Everton’s situation and to feel the same as them.

‘That is natural and spontaneous. For us only what I want is to have the fire inside us because we want to play for the club, for ourselves, and for our fans.

‘That was so clear against Brighton, in how we started the game and how we fought with 10 men. That is the way we want to keep it.

‘We need the desire and the fight, otherwise we are going to suffer. The players and the coaching staff share the responsibility for that. It is how we propose the strategies, and how if you are a Chelsea player, you have to have the fight.

‘If not, you are going to struggle. We need to show we care and we are going be ready to fight.

‘Football is many things but you have to start with this,’ Pochettino continued.

‘We started too flatly against Newcastle and Manchester United. We are a young team, but come on. Improving your build-up or your positioning can be improved with time, but fighting and running is non-negotiable.’

In other words, Pochettino believed that a good strategy plus a fighting spirit was the recipe for winning.
