Mauricio Pochettino, the manager of Chelsea, recently revealed that he saw taking on the Stamford Bridge job as a personal gamble.
Following his departure from Paris Saint-Germain, Pochettino accepted the position as the permanent head coach at Chelsea last year.
Despite interest from Real Madrid and Manchester United, the Argentine acknowledged that he was fully aware of the daunting task that awaited him at Chelsea.
He said: “I played with my reputation to come to Chelsea also, in a project that is to build a team with young, talented players with the potential to become top players.
“We knew that was a massive challenge but I want to give the team the tools to win games, believe in ourselves, and build a very good relationship”.
Chelsea’s 4-3 victory over United on Thursday, saw them climb up to 10th place with 43 points.
