Chelsea boss Pochettino: Reaching Europe would be important

Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino is convinced they can clinch European qualification.

The Blues have Nottingham Forest, Brighton and Bournemouth for their final three games.

Pochettino said: "It is important for every single club. It's true it's going to be hard. To get us the most [points] I think is to recreate the performance and replicate the way we play and being focused.

"Of course, we know very well we need to win games in the last three games. We then have a possibility to move into a place to play in Europe.

"The team is ready to face the last three games and it is important for us to be in Europe - of course we are focusing on the next game."
