Pochettino: I'm desperate to win a trophy in England


Mauricio Pochettino has admitted he is "desperate" to win a first trophy in England after leading Chelsea to the Carabao Cup final.

The Blues will play either Liverpool or Fulham at Wembley on February 25 after overturning a 1-0 first-leg defeat by thrashing Middlesbrough 6-1 at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday.

Pochettino will now have the chance to win a first trophy as a manager in England, with his failure to lift silverware during five years with Tottenham the nagging criticism from his time in north London.

The Argentinian pointed to the three trophies he won during his time in charge of Paris Saint-Germain before joining Chelsea, but conceded: "I am desperate to win a title here.

"We won, in one year and a half in Paris, three trophies. We want to win here, of course."
