Chelsea: “We have to go there and win” Pochettino confident ahead of Manchester United clash

Feeling confident after their home victory against Brighton, Chelsea want to build on this good momentum and move on to move up the rankings. Before the clash against Manchester United, Wednesday at 9:15 p.m., Mauricio Pochettino is confident: “It’s always good to play at Old Trafford because it’s an incredible place, a stadium, fans, a team, a club. It’s always a great opportunity to play there, but I think we’re all on the same level with different situations. I’m not saying it’s a good time to go. The most important thing is to feel ready to compete because we are going to face a team who are going to be difficult because they want to win and we want to continue the momentum and build from Brighton and be higher in the table. It’s important for us to be in a different position. This is a game we have to go out there and try to win. »

I need to be focused because we have a lot to deal with and I’m very respectful. »
