Mauricio Pochettino, manager of Chelsea, has reacted to his team’s 3-1 loss to West Ham on Sunday.

After being held to a 1-1 draw by Liverpool, the Blues are yet to win under Pochettino.

At the London Stadium, Nayef Aguerd put the hosts ahead before Carney Chukwuemeka equalized.

Enzo Fernandes then missed from the spot in the final moments of the first half.

Michail Antonio put West Ham in front with a powerful strike, while Lucas Paqueta put the game beyond reach with a late penalty.

“We changed Carney for Mudryk, but we started the second half late, and then we conceded the second goal. That helped West Ham to believe in the result.

“For us, we rushed situations. We need to be patient and open better the pitch. But when we see the data, in the last third, we had 50 entrances, which is amazing. But we weren’t clinical enough to score, for different reasons,” Pochettino told the club’s official website.
