Mauricio Pochettino urges his Chelsea players to develop a ruthless edge as the Blues seek to return to winning ways against Everton

Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino wants his team to develop a ruthless edge, especially against struggling teams. Or, as he put it, ‘To have the balls to win the ball.’

Pochettino was distressed at the ease with which Sheffield United won a series of challenges ahead of Oli McBurnie’s late equaliser in the 2-2 draw between the teams at Bramall Lane eight days ago.

And with Chelsea hosting another side battling the drop on Monday evening in Everton, Pochettino is looking for an improvement.

‘We have enough talent to win games,’ he said.
