“I think we always knew that a new project, or setting up a different project within a club, is always difficult. This period, these last few weeks, is perhaps a worse scenario than what we could imagine to anticipate the situation, confided the former PSG coach. It seems like everything is against us, because looking at the team’s performance, I think they deserve more points for their performance. All teams go through different periods, maybe for us it comes early, but we are very strong and I think we have the ability to turn the tide in a positive way.”
On the importance of the League Cup, the Argentinian technician said: “I think it’s important because the Premier League is important for Chelsea, right? If you want to play the European Cup next season. It’s still too early, it’s strange of course, but it’s football, it always happens. In my experience in the Premier League, for over 10 years now, there is always a club at the top that goes down and another, I remember Southampton or Leicester, it’s a situation that happens. We must be constant and create a project that allows us to be constant.”
