Our lack of ferocity and intensity prevented us from competing at a Premier League level. We gave up too much ground when we were on the defense.

I am extremely dissatisfied and upset because of that. You should focus on this area (pointing to his head and heart) rather than your legs. Being powerful as a unit as a team is more important.

Were we energised to advance when we had the ball? Yes. However, our level of intensity drops when we are without the ball.

“Today, I apologize, but I am dissatisfied with the way we play without the ball. We must be able to go and get the ball back.

Even with the loss, Chelsea would have moved up one spot in the Premier League standings.

For Pochettino, “it was a must-win game,” therefore the disappointment of losing was hard to swallow.
