Mauricio Pochettino admits Chelsea progress is slower than he'd like but they're on the right path

But I think the team is growing and maybe not in the way that we want or as fast as we want but I think we are little by little building what we want. For us it's going to be a derby, we want to get a good result, we want to make them proud again and what we can promise is that we are going to give our maximum again for the shirt and to make them proud again. Chelsea when he was caretaker, just five wins this year, one this season, how has that happened? Because if you look at all the other metrics, Chelsea are actually playing really rather well. However you don't have someone at the end of that to solve the solution and to put it in the goal. You were in the Soccer Special Studio the last time Chelsea played against Brighton weren't you in the Carabao Cup, Jackson got his goal, he also had another one which bizarrely was ruled out but there we go. Sadly he's got this suspension for yellow cards picked up and then Brozier, is he fit enough to start? So they score a goal, everything, oh we turn the corner now think Chelsea fans and then that happens. You think well against Brighton that could be a turning point, you're playing against a good side, Jackson scores but then like you say he's suspended for the next game because that could have given him a boost moving into the Premier League. I do think you can't not look at the amount of injuries that they've got and you just think now not only Rhys James but Ben Chilwell as well, two players that we highlight regularly to say they help Chelsea score goals. Yes defensively they're good but the creativity that they provide, the way that they play, their key losses and Kuku like you mentioned did really well in pre-season, assists and goals, he's not available. So they are missing key players as well but it's all there apart from that sort of final end product and you just think maybe once that starts to happen. What about Fulham very quickly, I mean they were delighted that they finished above Chelsea last season, they loved that, they'll be looking to rub that in won't they? Absolutely they will, I think the big thing with Marco Silva is I think we got in this mindset of thinking that it was a long ball team, more direct. Some of the football they play is lovely on the eye, they are brave in possession, they do like to play out from the back. So they'll give Chelsea opportunities to pinch the ball but they're a very, very well organised team.
